What is the significance of the observed value in a covid antibody test ? For example the observed value for my family members are 2.49, 2.9, 0.089, 42.5 Does high value mean more antibodies present ? Also does it imply the infection is old ?

The level of antibodies suggest the level of ur immunity. Antibody positive suggests u r infected whether symptomatic or asymptomatic. Ig M suggests recent infection n Ig G suggests past infection
