Faced with the decision of countries like Israel o Indonesia to inject a third dose of the vaccine against the coronavirus as a reinforcement to guarantee the immune response of our body, the debate has reached the WHO.
CEO Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus called it “disappointing“. “It doesn’t even make sense“He added. Countries that have taken this path claim that it would increase antibody levels by five to ten, according to their own studies.
Several institutions warn: no scientific proof that those reinforcement punctures are necessary. At least for now. First, the longevity of the immune response generated by full-course vaccines or natural infections should be assessed.
Experts insist: we must put the focus further. Before thinking about booster doses, it is much more urgent immunize the rest of the risk groups around the world. Although it is not ruled out to put this third dose in some population groups.
