New Delhi: According to a recent research study, the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, known in India as Covishield, provides strong protection that may last a lifetime.
The vaccination, in addition to creating virus-busting antibodies, establishes training camps in the body for search-and-destroy T-cells that can target even novel strains, according to The Sun in the United Kingdom.
It implies that the body may keep producing these essential cells long after the antibodies have worn off, perhaps for the remainder of your life, according to the study.

An anti-inflammatory drug can help reduce the risk of death in people hospitalized with Covid-19, a new clinical trial indicates, reviving hopes and debate about a medicine that many physicians had abandoned after earlier clinical-trial failures.
A UK study of more than 4,000 hospitalized patients showed that people who received the rheumatoid arthritis drug tocilizumab plus steroids had a 20% lower risk of death after 28 days compared with patients who received steroids and standard care only, according to preliminary results posted online this month. ....
