I had COVID-19 and just got tested for antibodies, hoping for comforting news — instead, my results made me realize how far science has to go (by AlexanderSpinn)

In March, Alexander Spinelli contracted COVID-19, just weeks after his partner had first tested positive for the virus.

Our symptoms varied, and his were more severe than mine. We both feel fortunate to have recovered. But, like millions of others who have done so, we've been left with a burning question: Now what?Serology testing — otherwise known as— can indicate whether someone is producing an immune response to the virus.

The reality is that, as a result, my body would likely fight off the virus if I encountered it again. But Abraham cautioned that I'm not invincible. At this point, science has no way of telling how long my IgG antibodies will remain with me. Both tests meet the company's criteria for specificity and sensitivity, crucial terms of understanding antibody testing.
