There are many studies underway to better understand the antibody response following infection to SARS-CoV-2. Several studies to date show that most people who have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 develop antibodies specific to this virus. However, the levels of these antibodies can vary between those who have severe disease (higher levels of antibodies) and those with milder disease or asymptomatic infection (lower levels of antibodies). Many studies are underway to better understand the levels of antibodies that are needed for protection, and how long these antibodies last. #COVID19 #COOVID19Reinfection #Antibody #Immunity _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Apollo Hospitals is the leading multi-specialty hospitals group in India.
