Didn’t I read somewhere that antibodies from the shot last longer than those from catching it ? And then again some don’t believe any of these tests

I don’t think they are at all accurate
I was very skeptical of my results
Now with a confirmed and sick person not showing any
I’m beyond skeptical

I know my dentist had different results from two different tests. However she has an auto immune disease and had minimal symptoms. She was vaxxed about 5 months earlier

 

[TonySmjc]

I told him try a different test
We shall see

Science!!

this guy? Workman Publishing
Not to take anything from a rancher who raised cows (although I admittedly vastly prefer free range venison) but what is this guy's medical and scientific expertise? Seems like he is just a parrot for others.

perhaps comment on the actual content.
no bother though....everyone is locked in at this point
is what it is

An Elisa screen is the only antibody test that will tell you how much antibody you have. Its a titered test which means your serum is diluted to determine the exact level of antibody you might have.

Problem with many of these quick tests is they are manufactured in China and are unreliable! Go figure.....

Nose swab for covid test didnt know it was for anti bodies too, thats a blood test from what I have been told

 

[pequa1]

Elisa way more than a nose swab. Regardless, so many tests are having questionable results.

Jeesh I thought you was an expert on this because you answered my initial question

 

[pequa1]

I just don’t know how to copy and paste with an iphone and no, no expert here

 

[pequa1]

Would have to leave the tv for the pc. Not gonna happen with a boston game

 

[pequa1]

What expert? As i told tony all our doctors, even the unvaxxed one who procrastinated and got hospitalized got the shot and advise their patients to do same. At our ages with desires to enjoy unmasked travel again it was a simple choice. If we grow a third ear or a tumor in 20 years, both quite unlikely of course, at least we enjoyed still another Viking cruise etc.

Yes, Antibody tests are usually blood tests, but there are the odd saliva ones, NOT in the case of COVID...

ELISA, Enzyme Linked Immunoassay, is just a methodology for an assay to measure things like antibodies, hormones, etc. I could go on chapter and verse, even tell you how to make one, but it's not important...

Thank you I have had a few antibodiy blood tests for Covid I didnt know if thee was something new out

Elisa tests are 99% accurate but I'm not sure if you can walk into a Quest or LabCorp facility and request one.
