Covid antibody test
Hello Docs
I have had covid infection in the mid of September 2020.After recovering went for covid igg antibody test which came out positive.
Now I have question that can I repeat this test now as 6 months have been passed?
Or this is not required as I heard some news that its immunity may last for several years.
Thanks

It is not proved that how long the immunity will last.. since you had covid in September by now your antibodies might have already gone from the body.. check once it may come negative. So follow covid protocols always.
