PCR testing: The PCR test may detect non viable virus, but more details may be provided. The type of test, dates of testing and results, along with a description of your symptoms would be helpful.

COVID 19: Were these all from PCR tests over a significant period of time? We don't know how long immunity will last after infection- it is believed for at least 3 months for most people. In addition there can be false positives and there is also the possibility of being infected by different strains of the COVID 19 virus.
