The results on an antibody test are positive or negative. If you have antibodies, it would mean a foreign object elicited an immune response inside of you.

What better results are there? You either have antibodies or not.

And antibodies DO NOT equal immunity.  All it means is that you have been exposed to "it" before.

Without going into great detail about our immune system and what/how viruses work.... You have different types of antibodies and you have a finite number at any given time (i.e. you have a specific amount). And it seems like our IgG antibodies severely drop in [concentration] in a few months as opposed to years for other things.
