People who have had Covid-19 do not need to be vaccinated: Study

Yes, you heard it! According to Cleveland Clinic researchers, persons who have already had Covid-19 may not benefit from vaccination. The researchers added that the people, who had previously been infected, had equivalent protection to those who had been properly vaccinated.

On the other hand, few professionals advise that patients who have had coronavirus get a single dose of vaccination.
The findings, according to the researchers, imply that natural infection offers immunity similar to vaccination. As a result, persons who have not been exposed to coronavirus can be prioritized for immunization.

The experts added that more research is still needed.

Some observational studies suggest that its supplementation may also aid in the prevention of Covid-19 infection and severe disease.

However, new research that used gene variants to model a randomized clinical trial suggests that higher vitamin D levels do not prevent coronavirus.
