If your case of coronavirus is mild, it's not all good news, the study shows

A milder case of coronavirus can mean that you are not as protected against reinfection in the future.


One of the most frightening things about coronavirus is the wayWide-ranging from the symptoms of the disease Maybe, run the range of a soft cough to a major body failure. And while having light symptoms that may seem preferable, new research suggests that havingA less serious case of coronaviruses could shorten the period during which you are immunized in the future.

According to a report of July 21 published inNew England Journal of Medicine,Antibody levels have decreased rapidly Of the 34 study topics that have had light cases of coronavirus in which hospitalization was not required. Their antibody levels were taken on average 37 days after their first time experience, and again at 86 days after symptomatic. Among the patients studied, the half-life of their coronavirus antibodies (the period of time in which he took the antibodies to decrease by 50%) was only 73 days.

So, what does it mean in terms ofreinfection potential? Although the authors of the study suggest that the decline of antibody probably slows down after the 90-day study period, they also noted that the short period of immunity in subjects with light coronavirus could have complications in terms of future social transmission and immunization efficiency.

More specifically, researchers warned against the use of "immune passports", in whichindividuals could present a documentation for their coronavirus antibodies, allowing them to return to work, travel or participate in other social activities.

The rapid decline in coronavirus antibodies in patients with light Covid-19 cases also presentsPossible problems in the realization of the immunity of the flock, which occurs when the majority of a population becomes safe from a disease by infection or vaccination, thus limiting their potential to transmit the disease to those who had not yet had or vaccinated. Since infection or vaccination can only confer on the immunity of people with a slight coronavirus for just over two months, this could mean that they are more likely to reinfete or spread the virus to Others.

Although several studies have discovered higher levels of coronavirus antibodies in patients who have had serious cases, this does not mean that you can assume that you do not transmit COVID-19 to other people after being seriously sick. In a July 11 July study not yet examined by researchers at King's College London,Antibody levels have begun to decrease after about a month In most patients, whatever the severity of their case. And if you wonder what areas in the United States have low levels of antibodies,95% of people in these states are still "very vulnerable" in Covid.
