Maybe so, or maybe not worth the effort. Supposedly this is what memory T cells are for. Once they learn how to fight off a type of infection they generally remember it for decades but don’t produce the antibodies unless required. I don’t know if science has any way, let alone a fast and easy way, to know what your memory T cells ‘remember’. Perhaps they can do it in a lab, by watching how your cells react to various pathogens they artificially introduce but that seems like too much work and time.
