Often people who have passed Covid-19 or those who have received the vaccine against it wonder how long immunity to the virus lasts. According to epidemiologist Ilir Alimehmeti, it takes years or even decades for immunity to the virus to disappear.
Such a conclusion, the doctor bases it on recent studies, published in the journal Nature.
"The body's immune response included not only IGM and IGG , including cellular response and memory responses that stay there for a long time. Numerous studies show us and a separate study shows us those of Sars-Cov1 who were tested 17 years later and continue to respond to this virus. Reinfections even if they occur tend to be mild.
Globally, the number of deaths from reinfection is an almost non-existent number. The tendency is for immunity to last long, not to prevent the virus from entering the body, but the form of the show to be mild." - He said about ABC Nea.
So whether or not someone has passed Covid-19 should they carry out the vaccine?
"We know that with other viral diseases who has passed it does not need a vaccine. With these specific diseases we know that it is being said that the first 6 months is not necessary and may need a single dose after 6 months."
