Antibodies, whether from vax or infection don't last that long.
I have just had another positive antibody test through the Zoe thing.
I had it in March '20 (by symptoms), confirmed antibodies in October (home test) and January (blood sent off). Been fully jabbed since end of May.Unless I have had an extra asymptomatic second infection that I'm completely unaware of, which I'm pretty sure I haven't, i am now at 18months worth of antibodies.
In other news, just got back from a festival. Was pretty odd being around that many people. Still - I'm sure the torrential rain will have washed away the covid.

Fair. I'm still worried about whatever the next variant is though. Antibodies, whether from vax or infection don't last that long. Covid19 has kept the mutations of concern coming so far. How do things look if in the Autumn we are looking at Epsilon (or whatever the next one will be) and the vaccines are only 35% or 40% effective...
I don't mean to be a doom monger, just feels like the widespread mood that the pandemic is nearing it's end might be misplaced. And maybe that mood might make things worse.
