Recovered COVID-19 Patients May Lose Immunity Within Months – Study

Of the study group, 60 percent showed a “potent” viral response in the first few weeks after infection. As it does so, it produces proteins known as antibodies that are programmed to target the specific antigen the body is fighting, like a key cut for a particular lock. “This is an important study that starts to define the longer-term dynamics of the antibody response to SARS-CoV-2,” said Lawrence Young, professor of Molecular Oncology at the University of Warwick, using the full name of the virus strain.
