Q: if you have high levels of antibodies are you immune from covid-19?

: If you have previously been infected by COVID-19, you should have substantial antibodies, and may not necessarily gain much from vaccination. But the CDC recommends vaccines, nonetheless, to be administered about 3 months after native infection. Maybe key here is the presence of numerous emerging variants, especially Delta.
