How to get to know that i had covid

2021-05-31 16:03:38
My wife was positive and i tested negative . But we shared some space with each other before she isolated . She tested positive on 7th may. I want to know ,is there any test which can tell me that i had covid virus in my body or not. Few of my friends referred me that to to anti body test. Is it true that i can get to know or any more test available ? I had a covid course when she tested positive as i was having cold.
