Q: if you develop antibodies from a covid-19 vaccine do you have t cell immunity for years?

: Most likely you do, but until we've had COVID-19 vaccine for years, we cannot know. Your immune repertoire will be modified, but to the spike protein that is generated by the vaccine, not the whole virus.
