BEIJING: Antibodies triggered by Sinovac's COVID-19 vaccine decline below a key threshold from around six months after a second dose for most recipients, although a third shot could have a strong boosting effect, according to a lab study.
Chinese researchers reported the findings from a study of blood samples from healthy adults aged between 18 to 59 in a paper published on Sunday (Jul 25), which has not been peer reviewed.

For participants receiving two doses, two or four weeks apart, only 16.9 per cent and 35.2 per cent respectively still had a level of neutralising antibodies above the threshold six months after the second dose, the paper said.

Those readings was based on data from two cohorts involving more than 50 participants each, while the study gave third doses to a total of 540 participants.
When participants in some cohorts were given a third dose, about six months after the second, neutralising antibody levels after a further 28 days had increased around three to five fold from the levels seen four weeks after the second dose, the study showed.

Researchers cautioned the study did not test the antibodies' effect against more transmissible variants, and that further research was needed to assess antibody duration after a third shot.
 
6 months is better than Pfizer's 3 months.

Oh look what the dog dragged in. The resident Science and Medical Expert, also known as Dr Sam Leong.
 
Yes.
Thats why vaccines manufacturers huat big big do not want covid19 goes away.
Even our government should have already invested state money in this manufacturer companies.

It's definitely more profitable than selling gym memberships or Netflix subscriptions. Those type of memberships, the users can cancel anytime. :biggrin:
 
Money is the root of evil.
Second come power.

If you're quoting the Bible... the love of money is the root of all evil.

Money is unto itself a neutral thing, not evil. Rich people are not de facto sinners.

However, if you're hoarding money simply for its own sake, it's a slippery slope. :wink:
 
all govts are.....why do we even need them?

If you adhere to Buddhist philosophy, all governments ('kings') are like robbers, floods or fires... they take away your wealth by default. It's their nature to do so. No need to begrudge this fact.

That's why checks and balances are necessary, and you need a small, limited government. A leashed and trained dog is an asset, an out of control feral dog becomes a menace.

Name me one idiot who will cancel his Netflix subscription with the pandemic going on and forcing many to stay at home.

More evil BE bad mouthing China again... a self induced enemy..
 
What about the more important KPIs like hospitalisation, oxygen, ICU, death rates?

I'm sure it helped reduced the severity. The issue is not whether vaccines work but how long they will actually make a difference and how often booster shots will be needed.
