I imagine in 2-3 months time though the vulnerable who got their second vaccine earlier (March time) will have much fewer antibodies and we will be in the same position… they probably don’t last long considering my flatmate has had covid twice within 9 months.

There go the media again, stirring it up saying lockdown is going on and on, when we are not in lockdown and the social distancing is remaining to save lives, the media are not helping at all

That's why they're planning booster jabs.
I think it's a good idea.

The Uni I work I've just found out that in the last TWO weeks cases have gone from zero for weeks and weeks to now being 70 cases. That's a large jump! So I'm not surprised they have to delay if cases are jumping like that everywhere. I wouldn't be surprised to see the tier system return

Well that a mighty big jump from 0 - 70 wow ! This is governments fault for leaving borders open .

[bitontheslide]

i just checked my area again and it's still on zero cases. I think it still remains true that there are hotspots and they are being surge tested and vaccinated, so it's still being controlled as far as is possible

Yes, that's all theh can do.
Deaths are still very low, which is a relief.

These vaccines are much more sophisticated than an inoculation (which is just exposing to small amounts of the virus), so you can't really estimate how long antibodies will last by comparing it to reinfections of "wild" covid.

It may last far longer, it may not... we don't really know yet. The main concern is still mutations to be honest. It's fairly likely that your flatmate had Alpha (UK) variant 9 months ago and Delta (Indian) variant now.

[bitontheslide]

yeah the immune response from catching covid naturally will be very different to that generated by vaccination, so its not sensible to compare them.

I find all this claptrap about restrictions being irreversible absolute nonsense. A new variant could come along at any time that renders the vaccine useless, so i wish Boris and others would stop making these declarations. It just gives a false outlook

[Toy Soldier]

I think "useless" seems unlikely, I mean it's not going to mutate itself out of being a coronavirus, so i think SOME protection for the vaccines/tweaked vaccines is likely to always be present but yeah it could feasibly drop in efficacy to, say, under 50% in which case it would still stop plenty of severe illness and deaths, but it would be functionally useless in terms of limiting spread. I believe the "standard" quoted figure for a vaccine to be effective on a large scale is something like 65% (of 100% uptake... the lower the uptake number, the higher the effectiveness needs to be).

new details on the delta variant ......

A headache, sore throat and running nose are now the most commonly reported symptoms linked to Covid infection in the UK, researchers say.

Prof Tim Spector, who runs the Zoe Covid Symptom study, says catching the Delta variant can feel "more like a bad cold" for younger people.

But although they may not feel very ill, they could be contagious and put others at risk.

Anyone who thinks they may have Covid should take a test.

The classic Covid symptoms people should look out for, the NHS says, are:

cough
fever
loss of smell or taste

But Prof Spector says these are now less common, based on the data the Zoe team has been receiving from thousands of people who have logged their symptoms on an app.

well then that covers everything from the common cold to hayfever

I had an absolutely shocking cold that started last Tuesday and is only really clearing up this morning. It's felt "odd" too in that I've also been utterly exhausted and brainfoggy.

Oh well. I've probably been superspreading all over the county. It's mostly cleared today though so too late to even test .

Technically it shouldn't have been BUT I was only 10 days after my 2nd dose sooo... not fully double-dosed...

Though my daughter was the first to get it and we did get her tested and that came back negative. So assuming it was the same thing probs not? Who knows. I'm not dead anyway and like I said, was perking up by Saturday and mostly cleared today.

Nasty one tho...
