FAQs

While possessing antibodies to the virus that causes COVID-19 offers you
immunity and protects you from getting reinfected, it is currently not known
how long this protection lasts. The virus may mutate or change as the pandemic
continues, and it has not been determined yet, whether recovery from the
infection can protect you from further mutated virus variants in the future.
Hence, the best course of action would be to talk to your primary care doctor and
see his/her expert opinion on the matter.

When a patient does not have a pre-existing account or registration for
scheduling an appointment, it is classified as a walk-on appointment. While
appointments are generally preferred, if you don’t have one, the Malady staff can
assist you with creating your account and scheduling. If you are still facing
trouble, contact us at support@malady.co.
