Will the protection from the moderna vaccine wear off after 6 months?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is still not proven how long antibody production against COVID-19 or variants will last. The length of time will vary from person to person. There is potential for another form of protection to be achieved via "T-cell's", which retain "memory" of prior antigenic insults and can engineer production of new antibody resistance to a "new" infection, perhaps providing a less serious infection.
