This test consists, first, of a simple blood test carried out by a nurse at one of our private medical clinics. Subsequently, the blood sample is sent to a private laboratory for analysis. The test results are then sent to our team within 5 working days. One of our nurses will contact you by phone to share and explain the results with you.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Since June 5, 2020, this test has received Health Canada licence.
