–According to her, the booster dose turns out to be decisive for the final good outcome, because the immunity from the first doses decreases, and there is no case of a person with a serious illness or death with the third dose.
According to her, more people are infected in countries with a high percentage of vaccinated, because there are many unvaccinated. This is the case in Germany and the United Kingdom, which have another 30 percent unvaccinated population. It is in this group that the infection is most prevalent.
“The immune response after the booster appears after two weeks. That is why a shorter term of the third dose had to be allowed in September “, Prof. Petrova thinks.
T-cell immunity also works against the new version of Omicron, said the microbiologist.
