I had two vaccinations and a Covid infection - the latter only confirmed by ATK tests.

Where in Bangkok can I make an Antibody test that can distinguish between past vaccination and infection - thus confirming the recent infection?

Hmmm? Maybe I haven't been clear enough.

The covid infection has already been weeks ago. Quarantine is long finished.

My questions are

 

a) What is the name of the antibody test that can distinguish between past vaccination and past infection? (As a confirmation of the late infection)
b) Where in Bangkok can you do that?

Antibody test by laboratory blood check is 24h and some 1500b, including paper. 
also pin&pricck is 15 minutes and 750b. 
medconsult on thonglor, but probably any private clinic. 
 

probably would be good to have a recovery certificate, so you are protected for 90 days since infection, just in case your any future test turns positive. Recovery certificate would even allow enter thailand with a positive result. 
that one rather at hospital, after seeing doctor, but check at the clinic you are doing test. 
 

antibody test cant distinguish between vax and recent infection, but it's to a doctor to classify as a recent infection

Thank you for your answer.
That is where I find different information.

For example
"Antibody tests are able to detect two different types of antibodies:

‘n’ antibodies (necleocapsid) which appear after an infection
‘s’ antibodies (spike antibodies) which appear after an infection or vaccination"

Or from the CDC website:

"Some antibody tests will only detect antibodies from infection, not from vaccination with the virus that causes COVID-19."

 

So it seems the antibody test should test for "nucleocapsid (N) protein"?

I have checked many websites and found many test centers / hospitals. Usually they don't show very detailed information.  Also started sending them emails and asking my question.

 

Still confused ????
