What's this?

Then why not test for antibodies?

There's numerous studies showing immunity from natural infection is superior, but as you said I'm sure this is not universal.

I think it would also have to be said not everyone who is vaccinated has the same amount of antibodies and those who don't are more at risk for breakthrough infections. The CDC has already authorized fourth boosters for certain populations.

So why not test for antibody levels?

Using your logic, why get vaccinated if you have immunity from infection? -- RUHokie 11/03/2021 5:27PM

Because the vaccines are calibrated to produce enough antibodies -- lchoro 11/03/2021 5:58PM
