A member asked:
Does a blood test affect your covid-19 antibodies? will your body produce more?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blood drawn for testing does not affect the protective antibody levels after COVID 19 vaccination. Typically the amount of blood drawn is minimal for routine testing.

My wife had a blood test for Covid antibodies and it showed that she had Covid. She lost her smell for three weeks back in March. Does that mean that I would have got it as well? We never stayed away from each other in that time?
