According to latest CDC mmwr coming out of New York and California, it indicates a significant immune gain is to still be had in the purely vaccinated group: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7104e1.htm?s_cid=mm7104e1_w https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7104e1.htm?s_cid=mm...
Over about a year, they also did not observe a statistically significant waning of natural immunity.
I'm more hopeful based on that.
- dont__panic 5y agoMaybe I should be glad to have gotten Omicron, then. Curious how conflicting the research is on natural vs. vaccine immunity.
- peteradio 5y agoI'm wondering what research you have seen conflicting with this? As far as I'm aware this is the first CDC study that plainly studies vaccine status/prior infections impact on large scale. There were two widely publicized CDC studies with either very strange looking biases baked in (hospitalization prior) or it was done during an optimal vaccination window (within just few months of mass vaccination). Who knows what Delta or Omicron will do relative to the O.G. for immunity but I'd be willing to bet its perty darn good (+/-25% O.G. vs unknown variant of future).
