They’re not comparing the same thing at the same time. Antibodies do diminish over time. So the 1.5% that nomad refers to can be right (then) and they might make up a smaller proportion of the 6% (now).

However as pip says there could be more to immunity with the T cell response.

How all of this translates to immunity in practice (how long does it last, is a second bout of infection significantly less severe etc) isn’t fully known.
