Seems we should be able to test for antibodies though. Why aren't we?

we are testing for antibodies but antibodies aren't the only immune system response and depending on who you ask might not even be the "main" defense against covid.

It's a blood test, and I suspect that it's even harder to motivate everyone to get a blood draw than to get a vaccine.
