It's National Cholesterol Month!
High #cholesterol can increase the risk of heart disease and other serious #health issues. Despite over half of UK adults having raised cholesterol levels, most people don't even know they have it!

"That’s because #antibody testing can avert the imposition of a return to #lockdowns, when used in conjunction with new immune-boosting drugs designed to protect patients who fail to respond to the #Covid vaccine or rapidly lose immunity", Dr Quinton Fivelman added.
Dr Quinton Fivelman, our Chief Scientific Officer, says, “Without regular #antibody testing in the community, we can’t identify those people who never developed antibodies at all after #vaccination or those people who have already lost their antibodies."

'If a #passport scheme is considered again this winter, the separate schemes for England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland must be replaced by a single UK-wide #COVID19#antibody result App.' Dr Quinton Fivelman added.
Dr Quinton Fivelman, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer at London Medical Laboratory, reveals that #antibody levels for the #doublejabbed are now waning. He asks was the UK Government unwise to relax most #COVID precautions in July? https://t.co/kbeOL3IPx8 @LdnMedicalLab

"Given the number of “cowboy” labs offering #COVID , anyone wanting to book a private #antibody test must be assured the Government will do a better job of enforcing fair pricing and quality control #standards." - very important indeed.
Dr Quinton Fivelman, our Chief Scientific Officer, says, "Getting a #Covid “pass” because you’ve had two jabs is like receiving a driving licence simply because you’ve turned up for the test."
Dr Quinton Fivelman says, "Covid #antibody level results need to replace vaccination cards, #Covid “pass” Apps and other, inaccurate ways of indicating potential protection against the infection."
However, Dr Fiverlman says the tests will be a huge improvement on using proof of double #vaccination: ‘Getting a #Covid “pass” because you’ve had two #jabs is like receiving a driving licence simply because you’ve turned up for the test.’ 2/2
Dr Quinton Fivelman, our Chief Scientific Officer, says the Government’s adoption of public #antibody testing comes too late to assess national #immunity and inform key #booster jab decisions. 1/2

Dr. Quinton Fivelman, our Chief Scientific Officer commented "Simple #antibody tests can determine if your #vaccine has worked or whether your antibody levels have decreased significantly and identify those who most need ‘top-up’ jabs.” @guardian

Dr. Quinton Fivelman, our Chief Scientific Officer warned “people who believe they are protected are living their lives accordingly, but a significant proportion is still as vulnerable as #unvaccinated people.” So, “we need more testing of #antibody levels.” (3/4)
