Very interesting article. You cannot conclude that Moderna recipients will remain better protected but certainly worth a longer term study, especially for those who have contracted Covid19 after being vaccinated. Which vaccine was it?sp786 wrote: ↑Wed, 01 Sep 2021 11:17 pmWith the recent articles especially the one i saw on bloomberg yesterday that moderna recipients' had twice as much anti bodies as pfizer recipients after few months would leave many of us heart broken as moderna was mostly shunned in favour of pfizer.

I'm speaking of protection against initial variants and the info coming out of Israel with regard to the Delta Variant is that Pfizer is only 39% effective. Obviously Delta and the various vaccines need a lot more study but seniors cannot afford too wait until they become statistics. I personally am not worried too much, but my wife is in poor health to start with. They are only talking about a booster program possibly in January.

I had to look this one up, SMS. This assertion of 80 percent loss of immunity seems to appear only in Southeast Asia news publications.sundaymorningstaple wrote: ↑Wed, 08 Sep 2021 11:43 amhttps://www.newsbytesapp.com/news/world ... nths/storyLisafuller wrote: ↑Tue, 31 Aug 2021 10:53 pmAs new variants emerge which the vaccine is not effective against you can expect efficacy to decrease.
