"A new study suggests up to 8.5% of people who overcome the coronavirus do not develop antibodies against a second infection.

Scientists from St George’s University of London looked for the immune-fighting proteins in 177 people in the weeks after they fought off the infection.

Antibodies prevent a virus from reinfecting an individual, but tend to diminish over time.

With the number of confirmed coronavirus cases approaching 8 million, one expert pointed out close to 800,000 may become reinfected, reducing hopes of herd immunity.

“Reassuringly”, those who did produce these antibodies continued to do so two months later.

The same expert stressed, however, that we need to understand the immune response several years down the line."

Others might develop a vaccine for Covid-19, but will it be totally effective?
