I JK, I have not got the vaccine yet. I am going to get the antibody test first to see if I have already been infected since Back in April 20 I had a long lasting chest cold. As a matter of personal protection. I might waite to see how you folks and pregnancies are effected by the vaccine. If I don't have the antibody then I will get the vaccine. Remember, over 2000 people world wide have parishes after taking the vaccine.

@luckonetj- Hello. It's nice to meet you. I'm curious about the antibody tests, and why people are taking them. So far levels of antibodies vary from person to person, mostly depending on the severity of their illness. There are many studies that are underway now to better understand the levels of antibodies that are needed for protection, and how long these antibodies last. So, even if your test results show that you have some immunity because you had COVID-19 it doesn't guarantee that you won't get it again. There are people who have been reinfected. There isn't any really reliable data that will tell you what degree you might be immune, if at all.

Did you request these tests or did your doctor?

@luckonetj If you possibly had Covid almost a year ago I think you would still be advised to get the vaccine. They are saying if you have Covid to wait three months and then to get it. If you're pregnant that could be a different story, I have no idea about that.

I'm not sure what you mean by "2000 people world wide have parishes after taking the vaccine", I am sure there is a typo in there but I can't for the life of me figure out what that should mean.
