Laboratory System Partner,

Beginning July 7, 2023, the Michigan Department of Health & Human Services Bureau of Laboratories (MDHHS/BOL) will be discontinuing testing for COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) antibodies due to low demand for testing and the inability to obtain testing reagents. However, the BOL will continue to offer molecular testing and sequencing for COVID-19 virus. 

For questions regarding this change please contact Virology and Immunology Section Manager Dr. Diana Riner, email: RinerD@michigan.gov, phone: 517-335-8099.

Thank you.
