A member asked:
Covid-19 antibodies develop in body after covid-19 infection and also after taking covid-19 vaccine. which one of these two antibodies last longer in the body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The antibodies to wild covid-19 will differ from those to the vaccines. We only have data from the wild covid for a little more than a year & much less for the vaccines which have been around a shorter time. The data we have so far suggest the wild covid can trigger antibodies lasting 9-10 months or more. Reports on vaccine triggered antibodies are not widely circulated.
