Pfizer vaccine delivering 91 percent immunity for at least six months
https://news.yahoo.com ^ | April 2, 2021 | yahoo

Infectious disease specialist, Dr. Sandra Bliss Nelson, weighs in on finding that show the Pfizer vaccine is performing well;

MIKE SIMPSON: It's holding its effectiveness, basically 90-ish percent, 91%, six months later. So I guess there's two ways to look at it. First is, yeah, six months. That's great. But then another crowd maybe goes, oh, well, maybe it's only six months. Well, it doesn't drop off to 10% the Tuesday after the six-month clock rolls around, right? So it's going to be maybe a sliding scale. We just have to see how far it goes.

SANDRA BLISS NELSON: I think that there's a couple of points to this. I mean, the first is that there's really no opportunity to know more than about six months. We really have only had these vaccines in clinical trials for that duration of time, so it's not to say exactly as you pointed out, that there's going to be a cliff at the end of six months. It's really just that that's as far as we really know.

But we have begun to learn more about immunity after natural infection, and we believe that that immunity lasts at least six months, if not a little bit longer. And given that vaccination seems to produce more potent immunity than natural affection itself, there's really no reason to think that we're going to get more durability out of this vaccine than six months.

Polio and small pox shots pretty much last for life, tetanus for 10 years, covid for 6 months. What?

It probably lasts longer. Influenza vaccines are good for a year. Are they a scam also?

Do you get it twice a year or just be “uncovered” half the time?

So this new passport will only be good for a maximum of 6 months?

Yeah, seem like it. Never had one, never had the “flu.”

mRNA is gene therapy tech. A “vaccine” you have to periodically take is a great opportunity for them experimenting on the masses. What could go wrong?

Not a vaccine. It’s like a flu shot.

How long does the small pox or rabies or whooping cough vaccines last? Before you answer... just know that my family caught Whooping Cough when I was a child.

91% is good? In the United States in more than a year 31.4 million cases have been identified. The U.S. population as of a few minutes ago was 331 million. 31.4 divided by 331 equals .095 or an implied herd immunity of 90.5%
