RE: 100,000 randomly selected volunteers to use at-home finger-prick tests to find antibodies18 Aug 2020 14:54
Originally they argued that antibodies decline so would not be measurable - but now they say they tested 100k and 6% were positive. So now antibodies do remain present to be testing positive. Add that to the fact they re now saying that antibodies do show protection even if they decline you retain cell memory - meaning if you are infected again you can produce antibodies again quicker. Think the UK gov need to pull their finger out and get these ordered so people can test and know they have a degree of protection or be accused of incompetence again. This is all very positive - orders will most defo follow soon
