Now , that's just being silly ..... there's no cure for no till .I'd rather have a go at No Till than get covid.
It's all about T cells apparently , you can't store immunityNot really, latest research suggest the antibodies only last a few months. You'd lose the immunity around autumn, just as the winter wave kicks in...............ideally you'd get it late autumn, so you'd be OK when it all kicks off again over the winter. That's if you survive the first case of course........
Hospitals relatively quiet , better treatment , beat the rush ...

You explained it perfectly .The antibodies are not produced constantly nor do they circulate forever. If they did, this would be problematic since a huge range of immunoglobulins are produced and a lot of them are highly specific to the pathogen in question. For example, the last cold you had, the antibodies you produced in response to that don't 'fit' the flu virus you had last year; both of these viruses have different shaped antigens and will not fit just any random antibody. Also the blood is a pretty busy place as it is without having several thousand types of antibody floating around in it 24/7 just in case you get last year's flu virus or something. You would expend a lot of energy and effort producing antibodies of all kinds for absolutely no benefit.
Instead, there are cells that 'remember' previous encounters with earlier pathogens and produce the required antibodies when or if they are encountered again.
The importance of the 90 day antibody theory is that if we are testing people now, given that we are many months since the initial infections probably happened, how many people who test negative when tested by immunoassay, are already 'resistant'??
There is absolutely no evidence antibodies only last a few months. This is a totally new disease and little solid research Has been done. Even less ith patients who are genuinely been known to have, actually had Covid.Not really, latest research suggest the antibodies only last a few months.

This assumes those who tested positive actually had the disease many of these are now recognised to be false positives.Immunity to Covid-19 could be lost in months, UK study suggests

That's not even the same scenario , we expect better from youAlso Spanish research found exactly the same:

A study of more than 61,000 people in Spain found that just 5% had developed antibodies that could provide COVID-19 immunity.www.businessinsider.com

Good chance there are many long lasting effects on the person after "getting it" making other conditions more dangerous to life.One thing that seems to being kept quiet, is that while discovered infections are rising, fatalities are still dropping, and numbers requiring hospital treatment like wise.Another odd fact(unless you want to keep the numbers up) is that once you have had covid, its the only thing that will appear on your death cert, even if your run down by a car years later. North Wales man had it, recovered, then some months later heart failed, death cert said covid!
Thats not correct. Antibody half life differs from disease to disease. For tetanus its about 11 years, 50 years for chickenpox, for measles its 200 years. I myself had a blood test late last year that revealed I'd had Epstein Barr virus (aka glandular fever) at some point in my life, the doctor said there was no way of knowing when, as the antibodies stay in the blood for your entire life once you've had it.

Antibody half-life varies tremendously, from about 11 years for tetanus to over 200 years for measles and mumps.www.nytimes.com
For the common cold and the flu the half life of the antibodies is very short, weeks or months. Hence why we get reinfected with them constantly. Covid is a coronavirus which is the common cold family, and it seems the antibodies fade within months, like for colds. Thus we will all be capable of catching it repeatedly over our lives, unless a vaccine that can stimulate a far longer antibody half life can be found, which seems unlikely given actually having the virus is going to stimulate the immune system far more than a mild form in a vaccine.
