Experts: People previously COVID-infected should get at least 1 vaccine dose 6 hours, 10 minutes Stay updated with the latest in Tech, Science, Culture, Entertainment, and more by following our Telegram channel here. Our current understanding of COVID-19 infection leads us to believe that people who ve recovered from the virus end up developing natural immunity. What s not known about post-infection immunity is precisely how long it lasts, assuming that it is indeed finite. However, past observations of some recovered COVID-19 patients tell us that re-infection can occur, with some people being infected twice. This indicates that natural immunity can actually weaken over time.

At least 1 Covid-19 jab for recovered patients is a reasonable precaution: Experts

SINGAPORE - Getting people who have recovered from Covid-19 to take at least one vaccine dose is a reasonable precaution, say infectious disease experts, given that not much is known about the strength of immunity from natural infection and how long this protection lasts. What scientists know for certain is that a small number of people have been infected twice, with studies showing immunity wanes in recovered patients over time. In a way, we are regarding the actual infection as the first dose of a vaccine, therefore only one jab is needed, explained Professor Dale Fisher, a senior infectious disease consultant at the National University Hospital.

Singapore plans to stop counting daily Covid-19 cases and treat virus like flu

Jul 3, 2021 Singapore is making plans to stop counting its daily Covid-19 cases in a roadmap to resuming normal life by treating the virus like any other endemic disease. The city nation of 5.7 million has so far enforced some of the strictest and most successful pandemic-busting rules on the planet, recording just 36 deaths by curbing the virus through tough border restrictions, lockdowns and mass contact tracing and testing. But in a nod to the public’s “battle weariness” after 18 months of maintaining a low Covid strategy, three leading members of Singapore’s Covid-19 taskforce have proposed a “roadmap” to return to quarantine-free travel, large gatherings and to end the tally of daily cases.
