Not sure. I had COVID recently, so according to the current research I should be good for a few months at least. I guess will see that science says then and act accordingly. In any case I'd be at the end of the line for people who need

Can you expand on build quality? Do you mean that apple does not know how to build quality hardware? Or materials are cheap? Or do you mean something entirely different by the build quality?

From what I have seen the data says immunity is at least six months, and potentially years as with the original SARS. For me it is easier, I had it only a month ago, so I am good at least till the summer.
