However, more recently, we've seen positive signs of long-lasting immunity, withantibody-producing cellsin the bone marrow identified seven to eight months following infection with COVID-19. In addition, scientists have observedevidence of memory T cells(a type of immune cells) more than six mo...
This is where booster doses come into the picture. They're important to keep the immune system ready to fight off the virus, particularly for those who are more vulnerable to the effects of a COVID infection. Plus, regular booster doses can provide immunity against different variants. COVID...

Can you become immune to COVID-19? Is obesity a major risk factor for Covid-19? Obesity is a major risk factor for covid-19 and people who are obese are more likely than those who are not obese to contract Covid-19 at a younger age, develop severe Covid-19, require hospitalization...
Introduction The lives lost to acute COVID-19 are well documented.1-8 Less clear is whether survivors of COVID-19 experience excess mortality after acute infection, and if so, how long it persists. The potential for excess mortality after acute infection may be hypothesized on the basis of ...
Consistently, recent studies indicate that neutralizing antibody levels may be highly predictive of immune protection from symptomatic COVID-19 (refs. 11,62). mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines are known to induce spike-specific T cell responses in the majority of healthy recipients36,63,64. In ...
you should also take it easy for the rest of the day after your vaccination, apply ice or a cool washcloth to the injection site, and keep up your fluids. There is currently no strong evidence to suggest that taking ibuprofen after your COVID booster shot reduces your immune response to ...
effects such as headache, chills, and tiredness from COVID-19 vaccines may indicate a strong immune response, reducing infection risk. Despite the benefits, less than 25% of Americans received last year’s updated vaccine, though it could potentially prevent severe complications and long COVID....

Natural immunity has become a popular excuse for not getting vaccinated against COVID-19, but a new study from the University of Pittsburgh found that antibody levels left over from a prior infection vary significantly—and in many cases aren't enough to
