COVID-19 Discussion Board / Re: Dropping Antibody Levels

« on: October 20, 2020, 05:11:22 AM »

It actually seems to be none of the above which is why I’m confused..  If I’m reading results correctly seems to be less than 15 is considered negative, 15 and above is positive. Trying to figure out if 18 is high or relatively low for a positive..

Sounds like the care 365 test. 18 sounds low as I believe the range goes from 1-400
My wife had 375 so it's a real range.

I got the email from care365 and it said anything above 15 is positive however I don't know what the range was for MT sinai so I can't determine if it's dropping.

Is there a link to an explanation of the different kinds of antibody test results?
I went to the Mt Sinai in May and had 2880 and just went to care365 and had 60.
They are both considered positive and I'm trying to determine if it's dropping as they are clearly different systems.

How can we find out more about the airlines?
 My brother is coming in with his family and doesn't want to get stuck in the USA.

Now that it's hard to renew passports this is important to know data points.

Anyone that thinks that they will have anything ready before pesach 2022 is dreaming.
If they actually are planning on getting it ready so fast than they will run into other major (cash flow) issues when it shleps.

Disclaimer: the above is my opinion and why I personally would stay away but it's not based on knowing any facts.

To me the biggest red flag is that they say it will be ready so soon.

Is there a way to respond inline in a different color without having to keep changing the color on each line/question?

I wonder if this has anything to do with the fact that those in my family that have a tendency for thinning hair/hair loss had more severe/longer lingering symptoms.

I am very bald and never had any symptoms. Got tested by refuah/Mount Sinai and have very high antibodies.

Go figure.

I think they should switch all protests to zoom.
Should solve the rioting.

Who is a good  primary care practitioner near Monsey?

I have Cigna private insurance so don't necessarily need fidelis only.

I think all Hatzlahs should get a few dogs to roam the area and keep all children indoors. It will stop all outdoor minyanim as well.
