The bigger question for me is what is the long game here? Recent studies done in Spain and the UK seem to be pointing to post-COVID antibodies as fading out over subsequent months, meaning re-infection would be a distinct possibility. Time, of course will tell whether or not this is the case or not.
Yes, antibodies apparently do apparently diminish with time, and may disappear completely within 60-or so days after COVID-19 infection, based on what I have been reading lately. But, the the good news is that other recent studies are showing that, even after antibodies fade, most people who have had COVID-19 still have some degree of immunity after the antibodies are gone. That is because the immune system is complex, and includes things called T-cells and B-cells, which remember the invading virus, and respond if it tries to invade again. The T cells attack the virus directly, and the B cells ramp up antibody production to assist with the defense. I can post references to these studies if folks are interested.
I think we were all led to believe that antibody testing was a good idea, and that it could tell you with some certainty whether you had the virus or not. Based on what I am reading now, having an antibody test more than 2 months after you think you may have had the virus is pretty much a waste of time, as it really can't tell you much of anything. You'll likely test negative, whether you had the virus or not.
