It is prudent to take precautions to help prevent covid infection, it is irrational to not seek needed care. Precautions are taken for your safety as well as the staff's. You are vaccinated. Depending on the procedure you may need to be tested since you can be an asymptomatic carrier.

Most doctors' offices and clinics have strongly enforced policies to prevent COVID transmission, and therefore these are not high risk sites. It's good you are vaccinated. Contact the doctor's office before your appointment to learn their policies and procedures. If they and the hospital are not overloaded with COVID patients, you should feel free and comfortable having any needed medical care.

Very good morning doctors. Why might my very good friend who is also age 61, who is fully vaccinated for covid, get a blood test, and then test negative for antibodies? Could this negative antibody test be the antibodies may not be working/are absent?
