I know a doctor who volunteered in covid duty, he first got infected in october, recovered within a week.
He completed his both vaccines dose in early march, 3-4 days ago he came positive again.

Chhattisgarh joint health director got infected last year, got both vaccines too. Again got infected and died. So, don’t take it lightly.

They are saying if you have taken both doses and get infected then it won’t become serious and you won’t die!

Our maid did. Twice.

First time in November and second time in April.

No symptoms, nothing at all – only weakness which she attributed to tiredness/changing weather.

The medicines weren’t given the first time (no healthcare workers) and second time they told her to only rest and take paracetamol.

Mera Bhaarat Mahaan.

P.S: She is alive

As far as the virus is undergoing mutations, it can infect the same person ‘n’ number of times! if the mutant variant is dissimilar..

That Few months won’t be the same for everyone (Guess, you can get the antibodies checked every two months and plan accordingly). Some on Immunosuppressants aren’t developing any antibodies at all (depending on the medication they’re on)

Also, according to Pfizer.. the efficacy rate of the vaccine is @ 91% upto (6 months) and they aren’t guaranteeing anything above that
https://www.pfizer.com/news/press-release/press...
And now they’re suggesting, a third vaccination shot may be required within 12 months ( Someone who opted for a particular vaccine (1 or 2 shots) should stick to it for an year or so? )

Also..if you got recently tested COVID+ & recovered, the no.of antibodies developed with one vaccine dose will be same as two shots for a non-infected person. So if you get two shots after recovering, then you might be immune (better than the rest) to covid-19 for much longer duration (considering no other pre-health condition & certain medication use)

Personally know two cases, both infected twice, vaccinated, but 2nd infection was very mild compared to 1st one where they needed hospitalisation. Both are doctors. Know many people who got infected post vaccination but except one with co morbidity, everyone is ok. Not getting vaccinated is like taking the risk. Vaccine reduces the risk of severity in most cases. I am vaccinated and everyone in my family including kids are positive but I have remained symptom free and negative till now. My wife has very mild symptoms, she was already vaccinated. We are doctors. My suggestion would be don’t think too much, get vaccinated. Virus will keep on changing but so should we prepare our arsenal accordingly. At present our best bet is vaccine. Covid is a emerging infection and everyone has a lot to learn about it. Our priority should be to cling to anything that can keep us safe.

Yes. But only after 90 days of first recovery, correct me if I’m wrong.
