--Zero- 07/03/21 8:40:17 AM #1:	We got our vaccines around December and January and Im reading articles that are saying the vaccine is only effective for 6-8 months. Im coming up on my 6 months since the 2nd shot and am now wondering if Im supposed to get another vaccine put in me to avoid the new delta variant? I cant find any details on people who got it more than the first time. --- SIGNATURE <cite>--Zero- posted [p:955699815] in Health car...

Frolex 07/03/21 9:04:34 AM #4:	It's not that the vaccine is only good for 6-8 months,it's that we're only certain that it offers protection for that length because that is how long the earliest doses have been active. The current vaccines are highly effective against the delta variant (and other currently known variants) and it's believed the protection from the vaccine is long lasting --- https://imgur.com/HOLHd4k https://imgur.com/six2WTN <cite>Frolex posted [p:955700157] in Health car...

ShyOx 07/03/21 9:05:45 AM #5:	It's confirmed for 6 months, current testing is underway on longer periods. It probably lasts longer than that, most vaccines do. Generally a booster is probably going to also contain what we need for the new variants. --- http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/6938/vyqp.jpg DIPLOMACY <cite>ShyOx posted [p:955700180] in Health car...
