New Study on Antibody Response Shows We Should Hit the Brakes on Push for COVID Vaccine Boosters

As Reuters reported, like Pfizer and Moderna, J&J's vaccine produces a strong antibody response that does not wane.

Over 8 million doses of the J&J vaccine have been administered.

To put things into perspective, if you had COVID, you had a greater chance of forming clots than from receiving the J&J vaccine.

A new study that focused on the immune response to COVID-19 in patients who contracted mild cases found that antibody production lasts up to a year and may last a lifetime.

Vaccines heighten the antibody response and are crucial in protecting those who developed asymptomatic COVID-19 or never contracted the virus at all, the study finds.

The researchers wanted to see if similar, persistent immunity existed in people who hadn't come down with COVID-19 but who were immunized with an mRNA vaccine.

To find out, Ellebedy and team recruited 14 healthy adults who were scheduled to receive both doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.
