If you already had Covid do you need the vaccine?

And why? A vaccine is generally dead or low dose of a virus to build an immunity to it. Wouldn’t you already have that after the virus?

That's what I want to know. Had it Thanksgiving into early December... No reason for me to walk around with masks or take a vaccine at this point.

Not enough data on how long the antibodies last. See Saban for example.

because we only have a year worth of antibody longitude, the experts are saying 'yes'. It's precautionary.

Considering you keep flu and most other viral antibodies for a lifetime, I'm thinking they're being very conservative.

Heard today on the news that the vaccine stops you from getting seriously ill, but you still may be able to catch the virus and spread it.

Holy shite. If you can’t laugh at it all by now.

You do not need a vaccine if you’ve already had covid but if you test for antibodies and none show then it might be a good idea to get vaccinated

At our hospital they will test you for antibodies. If you have antibodies then you don’t need it (see large English NIH study on their infected healthcare workers where those who were AB positive were asymptomatic despite reinfection). However, we retest in 30 days to see if antibodies have subsided. Right now the prevailing thought is antibodies usually last for 3 to 6 months. Some people can positive for up to 9 months, however.

Obviously. I’ve had COVID twice and I got an extra black market 3rd vaccine dose just in case.

Can’t be too careful.

Having recovered from covid is better than the vaccine.

A couple of German studies found that people who were covid asymptomatic had had one of the coronaviruses that are part of the common cold.

On those mRNA...
Imagine getting chemo therapy because you could develop cancer. This is closer to that than a vax. You might call it preventative gene therapy, totally insane.
