Hello, I requested a Covid Antibody test from my GP and when the results came in I was just told they were 'Positive' - i.e. the vaccine worked/i have antibodies Had anyone managed to get hold of more detailed information, like the antibody count rather than just a positive/negative result? Perhaps I need to get a particular type of test done rather than the free one on the NHS? (if so, does anyone know what id need to ask for?)

In the US it is called a COVID antibody test, Quantitative (QN) -- this is as opposed to a 'qualitative' test, which just says positive or negative. I am guessing it is the same in the UK, but hopefully someone will answer who can confirm that.
