She had never had symptoms so she must have had asymptomatic Covid at some point. But having no immune response to the vaccine is interesting as it does mean she most likely still has antibodies from that exposure.

She works in a care home and something like 30% of the staff tested positive for antibodies when only a couple of them had ever had any symptoms .
Ah, that's interesting and makes sense TS. I didn't know that so thanks for the info
