So......Our crew is flying into St. Thomas in February. One crew member has tested positive for Covid-19 several months ago, and has a positive test for Covid antibodies. St. Thomas allows test results for antibodies within the past 4 months.
Checking into entry requirements into the BVI, I don't see antibody tests mentioned, only antigen test for current Covid. Is this correct?
There are so many sites that give different information, I don't want to miss a trick?!

The BVI does not recognize the antibody test. I looked carefully because I am also antibody positive.

Me too - and I also found nothing that showed the BVI allowing a positive antibody test for entry or in lieu of Day 0 and Day 4 tests.

It’s worth noting that a positive antibody test will often cause a false positive up to 90 days and perhaps longer after you had covid. This can be a issue for obvious reasons.
