    I’m surprised that an antibody test isn’t required first for those that had COVID. The study in November indicated surprising long term immunity.

      I remember... The thing is, if I remember the study correctly, there was an initial big decrease in antibodies, but their remained a smaller number of more powerful antibodies that showed great staying power.

      People saw the initial drop in antibodies assumed that they would continue to decrease at the same rate. That’s not what has happened in a large number of cases.

          It seems odd that existing antibodies would cause you to get sick again. Seems counterintuitive.

            Remember that these aren’t your typical vaccines. They train your cells to attack the protein spikes of the Coronavirus by making some cells grow the protein spikes and mimic the virus. I can see how the existing antibodies wouldn’t like those....

              Saw SIL today. Her PCR is not back, but we made the decision that she would be fine to drive up for Christmas. She feels fine today, no symptoms of any kind.

              That was one heckuva immune response...

                @jolly Wow.

                I'd love to hear the docs' take on this one.

                Glad she's OK!

                  Would be nice to know what levels of antibodies the people had who had the reactions - both Steve and I still have antibodies, he has more than me - but no idea if our levels are medium, high , or low. He is higher up on the list for the vaccine than I am - hopefully we will know more by then.
