A doc has to order the test. I dont know the details but my doc who is in private practice (ie, not a Stanford doc) offered to order it, but suggested waiting a couple weeks to get some preliminary info on how the test is working, and to let the curve flatten so that less risk in spending time in a clinic waiting room.

There's a theory that Californians have some degree of herd immunity because the virus may have been introduced to the state late last year.  I wanted to take the antibody test because in December I was floored for two weeks with similar symptoms and a wracking cough which persisted for six weeks.  My college roommate lives in Santa Ana and he and his son had all of these symptoms in January.
