Vaccination against coronavirus may have to be done annually - opinion

Mass vaccination of the population against coronavirus will reduce the number of infected people by 92%

Mass vaccination of the population against the coronavirus will reduce the number of infected people by 92%, but vaccination will probably have to be done annually or every six months.

Ugur Shahyn, head of the BioNTech company, told about this in an interview BILD.

Thus, according to research conducted in Israel, the number of infected, that is, potentially contagious people, after mass immunization of the population decreases by 92%.

"If we want the virus to spread with great difficulty in the future, and we want to reduce the number of infections, vaccination must be increased more often, perhaps every hour to one and a half hours," added Shahin.

He also noted that in the event of the appearance of a new dangerous strain of the coronavirus, an effective solution to the problem may be the introduction of a third dose of the vaccine against the coronavirus, thus strengthening the vaccination may provoke such a strong immune reaction that even a strong strain will not be able to overcome it.
