Why at this late date do we still not have a readily available anti-bodies test for Covid?

Instead of wasting all this money on testing facilities why aren't we making available anti-body testing kits? You could see if your immune system was vulnerable or strong and make an informed decison on whether or not you needed to get either vaccinated or the booster.

What the fuck is really going on here and why is no one in our governement demanding this?

    This was the signal from April 2020. Once we spent trillions on nonsense, and didn’t really even attempt a scalable immunity test with dollars behind it everything else followed. Trump fucked it up from this perspective.

    Agreed that Trump should have been pushing this from the outset but why isn't Biden the great savior who was going to shut down the virus getting hammered for not doing this now? And it's it weird how none of the Dazzlerbros are pushing for this either?

    Sure would be nice if you weren't such a fucking Kunt GDS and you could tell us why we don't have anti-body Covid testing readily available but alas, you're far too big a fucking pussy to offer anything but a down vote.

    Agreed that Trump was too passive on the government response to the chicom crud. But in spite of the slobberer thinking that Trump was Hitler, he wasn't. His instincts were good but every time he made a common sense statement about the chicom crud he was ridiculed in the MSM, late night TV and by the dems in Congress. Mention HCQ and it was recommending fish medicine (sound familiar?). Calling it the China virus - 100% accurate. Not wanting to lockdown across the board and destroy the US economy and ruin student lives as they needed to be educated and socialized. Dems spread fear, Trump spread hope and got the vaccine that the dems now love. CDC botched the initial release of the Covid test and then set the cycling way to high to get more positive test. Then the CDC and FDA blocked competing cheap rapid response tests. The CDC fought/fights acquired immunity in recovered patients. Wants to stab 5 year olds. Trump had the support of the Barrington declaration people who were only kicked off social media and then totally shunned by the US medical bureaucracy and the CDC. If Trump should have won the real election in 2020, Fauci would have been fired the next day. Yet, he is still a hero to the dems and our Pump leftards because he got Cho Bai Den elected. Never mind that Fow Chee is bought and paid for by the same chicoms that own Biden. All good if you are a leftard and playing for the away team.

    Trump got no support from any republicans in Congress. No push back at all. The only push back was from actual courageous republican governors who were vilified by the dem leftards. The real hero was Cuomo who offed thousands in nursing homes while refusing aid from Trump.

    Ain't no money in that.

    Pharmacy as a subscription service is where the $$$$ reside. Don't question. Just set up an automatic monthly withdrawal for your neverending jabs.

    If you knew that you had high level natural immunity, or even immunity that you got from the vaccine it would make all the difference. If you knew you immunity levels were low you could either choose to get a booster or refrain from being around crowds. Now we tell people to get jabbed even if they may already have high level natural immunity.

    You can donate plasma and they will let you know whether you have antibodies or not? I found that out about a year ago and did it. Turned out I didn’t have it.

    Ok, but a readily available home test seems easier. Donating plasma is a little more time consuming unless they've come up with a quicker way to do it from when I was selling mine in college.
