I can add you to our Culinary Arts webinars participant list if you want, that way you’ll receive the link, and you can join when you have time. We’ll definitely post the date for the next event regularly. We’ll probably settle on a regular monthly date/time, but thought we’d poll people first.
To my knowledge there has only been two JH webinars, although they’ll probably have another soon I’d say.
There’s not a lot of specifics on “how many antibodies is enough,” most I’ve read are general and say that it’s not just antibodies, yadayada. This is an article out of Hong Kong, which actually has done well given their population and the fact that they’re an island - https://www.scmp.com/lifestyle/health-wellness/article/3143608/covid-19-antibody-test-what-does-your-result-mean-why
It says at least 50 are required for some protection. But the article cites people with numbers up to 4,000.
This one, from JAMA , cites numbers ranging from 1,000-10,000 u/mL, but again doesn’t say what’s protective. It does note that the older we are, the fewer antibodies we develop.

But, ultimately I think the JH research is key for our needs and variables.
I’d say wear two masks, very well fitted, sanitize copiously, sit next to the window, with your husband next to you, and hold your breath…just kidding. But, seriously, @estrada53 seems to have a good system.
