The proportion of people who fall ill again with coronavirus is about 5 percent. About this on the air of the program “Let it be said”said Vladimir Chulanov, chief freelance infectious disease specialist of the Russian Ministry of Health.
He clarified that the risk group includes Russians who have poorer health, including those who do not develop immunity after illness or vaccination. Chulanov noted that they also include people with primary immunodeficiency. According to the specialist, it is useless for such people to be vaccinated, since the drug will not cause the development of immunity.
At the same time, the infectious disease specialist emphasized that a person can get sick with COVID-19 several times and this will not lead to an “overload” of immunity.
Earlier, Chulanov called the measurement of antibodies to coronavirus an empty exercise. The specialist explained that the decision to vaccinate or not vaccinate based on the level of antibodies to COVID-19 has no scientific basis. Chulanov noted that the most correct thing is to be vaccinated in six months, in accordance with the recommendations of the Ministry of Health.
