New studies suggest a vaccine after infection can give ‘bulletproof’ immunity



Four new studies are helping to answer just how protected people are after a coronavirus infection and how potent a vaccine can be after infection.

The research shows good evidence that natural immunity lasts at least a year and could last much longer, according to experts, but it’s unclear if the protection is enough to neutralize several variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

However, one study, published in Nature in June, found COVID-19 patients that received the Pfizer or Moderna mRNA vaccine after infection had 20 to 70 times more immunity against different variants of the virus.
