Covid-19 Vaccine: According to experts, more research is needed to determine the effectiveness of vaccines in people who have developed natural protection against Covid-19 infection after once infected.
The latest guideline for the Ministry of Health Uni said those who tested the positive Covid had to wait for three months after recovery for vaccinated, because they had natural antibodies. However, a group of public health experts, which includes doctors from AIIM and members of the Covid-19 National Task Force, have suggested that no need to vaccinate people who have documented Covid-19 infection.
Does Covid’s infected people need no vaccination? This is what we know
> In the second wave of Covid-19 pandemic, there have been examples of reinfection. AIIMS Delhi has conducted a study of breakthrough infections – infection after partial or full vaccination – which revealed that vaccination stopped the treatment again to become severe, but did not guarantee the protection of re-infection.
> Lancet Studies about Reinfection said that the risk of reinfection was reduced by 10 months after the first infection. The study conducted by researchers from the University College London was based on testing antibodies of people who were previously infected and those who did not. Research was conducted in England
> According to Reports of Indian experts, there is not enough evidence that vaccines are beneficial after natural infections. “No need to vaccinate people who have documented Covid-19 infection. These people can be vaccinated after producing evidence that vaccines are beneficial after natural infection,” said the report.
> Because the purpose of drive vaccination must be to control the disease, those who have been infected should not be a priority, because they are protected naturally, the report suggests.
> What advice to keep people infected after vaccination is currently influenced by the Crunch vaccine? Yes, the report clarified that the current pandemic situation in the country demanded that priority instead of opening everything. “Moreover, we can preserve large enough resources if we exclude adults who have recovered from natural infections,” he said.
Here are other vaccines related suggestions from experts
> Vaccination strategies must be guided by recurrent, local, real-time serosurveys to map vulnerabilities at the district level.
> More research on reinfection, infection among people who are vaccinated and not vaccinated. Such a cohort must be followed up for a long period of time for better findings.
> Unplanned vaccinations can trigger mutant strains, experts say, refer to age group vaccination, which has not been supported by evidence.
