Great response Malcolm. Excellent info.
Finding that detail, particularly on antibodies reinforces how individual responses vary and that old devil “time” is important in seeing results.
I am not overly worried by the neg antibody result hence waiting for the next test.
The varying effectiveness of different vaccines is interesting. Maybe switching types might be more effective. One query is that my neg result is known because I am included in the survey but the majority of recipients would be unaware. Would there be interested parties looking at this to get more definitive data on vaccines? Would my results be passed on so that data re the AZ could be further added to? For example, will the Oxford/ONS survey data be passed to those looking specifically at vaccine effectiveness for their benefit in vaccine development? Lastly, and more for people like me testing neg antibody development, would there be follow up?
My long term plan, irrespective of test results, is one of sensible caution anyway. My inquisitiveness from a scientific ( metals not bio) and quality management is causing me to think along the lines I am doing.
I am currently ok with waiting for further tests and definitely no overly worrying! I will query the results as and when necessary. The Oxford/ONS survey people don’t give out info on results or what to do as they are only running the survey/testing. They do indicate where more info can be sought if needed.
Interesting times!
