Check your local urgent care/medical providers about antibody testing. Places are starting to gain more widespread ability to perform the antibody testing. My wife and I got our tests done (the Abbott) test two weeks ago at a local urgent care network. Zero cost to us with our insurance. Both of us came back negative.

Seriously, this is another reason most people need to relax about their risk and accept that the opportunity for containment is long gone. On the other hand, we absolutely need to figure out why vulnerable populations are getting infected during a lockdown and how to actually protect/treat them. Just don't ask Gov. Cuomo for ideas.
