    COVID-19 booster immunity lasts much longer than primary series alone-- study

    Fri, 2024-04-19 09:44 — mike kraft

    COVID-19 booster immunity lasts much longer than primary series alone, study shows

    A new study coming out of York University's Centre for Disease Modelling in the Faculty of Science shows that immunity after a COVID-19 booster lasts much longer than the primary series alone. These findings are among other—sometimes "unintuitive"—revelations of how factors like age, sex and comorbidities do and don't affect immune response.

    The work is published in the journal Scientific Reports.
