Covid-19 reinfection: What you need to know 01:38 A study, published in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine on Wednesday, found that people who tested positive for Covid-19 antibodies were at a decreased risk of coronavirus infection compared with those who tested negative for antibodies."The results from the study are basically a 10-fold reduction, but I would have caveats around that. In other words, it could be an overestimate of the reduction.
Uncertainty over how much protection Covid-19 antibodies offer 02:59The researchers -- from the National Cancer Institute and the companies LabCorp, Quest Diagnostics, Aetion Inc. and HealthVerity -- examined data on more than 3.2 million people in the United States who had completed a Covid-19 antibody test last year between January and August. Among those tested, 11.6% tested positive for Covid-19 antibodies and 88.3% tested negative.In follow-up data, the researchers found that only 0.
"For this reason, vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 is recommended regardless of antibody status," Katz wrote. SARS-CoV-2 is the name of the coronavirus that causes Covid-19. "How long the antibody protection provided by vaccines will last is also unknown," he wrote."To know how long protection will last with antibodies because of natural infection or vaccination is something only time will tell.
Wow...mind blowing
And in other news, water is wet. 🤦♂️
This is like saying people who's already dead have lower chance of dying.
Derrr. Derrr. Derrpa derr.

EgyptianStudentsLivesMatter In Egypt there are many. Of those injured by Corona and the Minister of Higher Education and the Egyptian Prime Minister decided to drop the students to take the exams, but this is impossible because the transportation is not safe
Pretty much common sense at this point.
The disabled are being systematically denied the Covid vaccine across the country. Medically fragile people of any age are far more likely to die of Covid than a healthy 65 year old. Every American on SSI disability or Medicare regardless of age deserves the vaccine immediately.
In other news, the sky is blue today
'no shit'
How is this even news? The fact that antibodies reduce the risk of infection is a fundamental premise (known as far back as 1890) of immunology. It is also the basis of antibody therapies used to treat Covid.
Well, duh. That's what antibodies do. They protect
Kinda how the body works....
