Well this was an unfortunate text 3.5 weeks after my first Pfizer dose. Israel's serological testing at the border would not be happy...

NHS COVID-19 NotificationBirth Date - Your blood test did not detect coronavirus (COVID-19) antibodies. It is a "negative" result.
Not sure how this is possible or how to take this result tbh.

Is this normal? Common? Should I be worried? I know I didn't take too hep b but I thought with hep b that's normal but that's now two vaccines I appear to not have taken to.

Edit:

Found this...
But it turned out that her father had taken the wrong type of test—one designed to look for antibodies that recognize a protein called nucleocapsid, which is found in the coronavirus but not in the Moderna vaccine. (Moderna’s shots instead trigger the production of antibodies against another coronavirus protein, called spike; I’d bet that my friend’s father is chock-full of these antibodies.)
Wonder how the NHS antibody tests work...
