2. COVID antibody total ELISA: 0.49
My question: should I go for second dose or should I astart with first dose again ?
Appreciate early response as my second dose scheduled today. I do have option to for two doses again.

You should get your second dose as per schedule. You can't get 1st dose again. Basically, there is no need for 3 doses of covid vaccine at present. Don't try to interpret the efficacy of vaccine by getting antibody titer done it doesn't predict the effect of vaccine completely as such.
