Antibody tests have up to a 50% inaccuracy rate according to (I think) the CDC, so ymmv no matter what.

Personally I'd not even look at antibody tests right now as a way to tabulate case count, deaths or even as an adjunct to any current(ly also no-doubt under-counted) figures.

Kind of a relief as locally we have antibody tests now, but without insurance they're $200 through the only private healthcare service providing them. I was sorely tempted to save up to get at least one of us tested until I read about the inaccuracy rate.
