Coronavirus: Test for Covid-19 T cells immunity developed

Coronavirus: Test for Covid-19 T cells immunity developed A company in Cardiff has developed a test for coronavirus T cells - which can potentially provide longer-term immunity to the virus than antibodies.

The body develops T cells when fighting an infection and they can create more antibodies if a person is exposed again.

This means the immune system could remember how to fight Covid-19 even after original antibodies have faded. BBC News
