If you have received this vaccine, you can have twice as an antibody, the study indicates
A new study shows that a vaccine could produce a much stronger immune response.
In recent months,COVID cases increased Once again across the United States, thanks largely to the rapid spread delta variant. The majority of new infections are among non-vaccinated people, but securities onRevolutionary infections-What hit everyone from the major Hollywood celebrities to US senators - have vaccinated people who are wondering how much they are protected against the variant. The reality is that while vaccines are still very effective, many things can affect your immune response from vaccination, including your pre-existing age and medical conditions. And now, recent research suggests that the vaccine you got could also affect the amount of antibody you produce.

A study published on August 30 in theAMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION JOURNAL comparedAntibody response After vaccination with Pfizer and Moderna. The researchers analyzed nearly 2,500 Belgian health workers who had received two doses of vaccine, measuring antibodies prior to vaccination and six to 10 weeks after the second shot.
According to the study, vaccinated participants with Moderna had higher levels of antibodies than those who have had Pfizer. This is true for both those previously infected by Covid and those who have never been infected, as well as all age groups. Overall, researchers have found that the Moderna vaccine produces twice as an antibody than the Pfizer vaccine, which could mean that it is more protective, they say.
"A relationship between the level of neutralization after vaccination and protection of SARS-COV-2 against COVID-19 has been demonstrated by several studies," said researchers. "As such, the height of the humoral response after vaccination, which is correlated with the neutralization of antibody titles, could be clinically relevant."
Researchers in this study did not formally conclude why the Moderna vaccine produces a larger response, but they suggested that differences can be explained by the largest amount of active ingredient in the moderna vaccine or the interval longer between doses. Each dose of moderna contains100 micrograms of vaccineWhile each dose of Pfizer contains only 30 micrograms. Pfizer is also administered with a three-week waiting between the shots, while Moderna has a four-week interval.

A separate study published on August 16th inJAMA internal medicine found similar results. This study analyzed thevaccine reply In more than 950 health care workers of the John Hopkins health care care workers and found that those who received Moderna have developed more SPIKE IGG antibodies than those who had Pfizer.
Outside antibodies, the recent search for the Mayo clinic also showed howmuch more protective Moderna could be that Pfizer. According to this study, which was pre-printed on August 8 on Medrxiv, the people who received the Moderna vaccine had aTwice the risk reduction For a revolutionary infection compared to those who have had Pfizer.
"Our observational study stresses that, while COVID-19 COVID-19 COVID-19 MRNA vaccines protect against serious infections and diseases, a subsequent assessment of the underlying mechanisms unlike their effectiveness, such. That the dosing plans and the composition of the vaccines, concluded "researchers at the Mayo clinic concluded.
