Yea all BS. If for whatever reason memory cells are only retaining covid antibodies for a few short months that means that immunization is impossible and the shots are at best pointless to take.

okaaaay.

No the memory cells (the T cells and B cells) don't "retain antibodies". They generate the antibodies. Well B cells generate antibodies. T cells let the B cells know when to, as well as killing cells that have been infected.
The point is that how long the T cells and B cells persist is not the same thing as how long the anitbodies persist after immunisation. And since B cells can fire up production of antibodies at no notice, that's independent of the current antibody level, but an important aspect of immunity.
that means that immunization is impossible and the shots are at best pointless to take.
I think you've misunderstood what immunisation is. It is both the creation of the B cells and T cells to allow rapid response to a particular infection, as well as the generation of antibodies that will fight the infection.

I havent misunderstood anything. You have your head so high in the clouds you are missing a lot of very basic knowledge. Im guessing you are highly educated which is very different from learned.

Okaaay.
So can you break down "If for whatever reason memory cells are only retaining covid antibodies for a few short months that means that immunization is impossible and the shots are at best pointless to take."
I'm having trouble parsing "memory cells are only retaining covid antibodies for a few short months" in particular.

Of course you are.

I ask because it looks like, for all the world, that you've misunderstood what immunization is.

Good explanation. I wonder why getting SARS-CoV-2 trumps the vaccine, and why early studies are showing that getting the vaccine after getting over the virus gives you the best immunity. I think it would be far better for people to get the antibody test than to rely on a vaccination card. Some people don't produce antibodies after getting the vaccine, but almost everyone will produce antibodies after catching the virus.
