Topic | Should people who already had a diagnosed case of COVID still get vaccinated? |

Knowing what I've studied in virology and applying common sense I can say it's very likely that a natural infection will produce much stronger and longer lasting anti-bodies. You may likely however, still see some benefit from the vaccine because it will probably replicate the immunity of a slightly different variant altogether giving you a broader spectrum of immunity, if you will. Even if it's not an actual "variant" per say, a virus constantly changes as it spreads through the herd so it will still almost certainly be "different" enough from the strain you caught to see at least a trace of benefits, which can't be a bad thing. This next bit I have to say is just educated-guess speculation: but I wouldn't be surprised if you make your body think it was infected twice; that by itself could very well could be a primer to significantly enhance the immunity just from a self-preservation POV. It might think hey, I got sick even with these heavy anti-bodies? I better work harder and double or even triple up the protection. Again, just speculation but common sense says it's quite plausible. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
