Based on antibodies. Can we assume this is higher due to studies showing antibodies don’t stay in everyone?

You would expect so.
The Siren study, a massive antibody study released some preliminary results- (i've not looked at the data properly yet) but that may show some info about positive PCRs vs antibody developement.
Really positively the data suggests very few reinfection rates in those with antibodies at 6 months which is great.

Is there any other data available on reinfection rates at all?
Hearing a number of anecdotal comments about this around and keen to see what's available

The NERVTAG summary of their investigation into the new SARS-CoV-2 strain noted that there were probably 4 reinfections in the 915 cases investigated. Clearly this is a single data point but that would be a large reinfection rate as the virus has a much bigger harvest of non-previously infected people to pick on.

This was the most recent publication I was alluding to. It isn't the Siren study as I suggested which I believe is another massive public health observational study across health care workers and has been running for around 8 months I reckon.
