     Dr. Topol,
     are you saying that mostly everyone who's just asymptomatic and tests negative for #Covid19 again after having recoveredfrom an #infection, should get a #booster shot *right away* and *not* wait the "customary" 6 months some countries' #CDC|s recommended last year?!?

     While this issue has been somewhat controversial, the present study is important for showing that after infection, vaccination induces spike-specific CD8+ and CD4+ T cells

     (Translation: get boosted, don't rely on prior Covid)

     @HistoPol @erictopol Just wanted to ask the same question: boost when exactly?

     He seems to be using a crossposter--check his "replies"--always only himself. 😞

     Good point, lamentable, though. He is one of the solid guys.

     @HistoPol @erictopol Thanks for that information! In this case you can set your account to „I‘m a robot“. Then everybody would know…
     I will try to google the answer 🔬

     @HistoPol @erictopol At medscape (where he seems to be the Editor-in-Chief) they say vaccination after recovery would be advisable for certain people:

     That would be a question to ask #DrEricFeiglDing, but he seems never to have come over from the #DeadBirdSite, another pity.

     When to get vaccinated again after recovering from #Covid19

     Right on! 🤗 - Thanks for the article.
     Yes, Dr. #ManishaPatel, Chief Medical Officer of the US's virus watchdog, #CDC, answers our question in all relevant detail:

     "Getting a COVID-19 vaccine [#booster shot] after you recover from COVID-19 infection 👉 provides added protection against COVID-19👈 . You 👉 may consider delaying your vaccine by 3 months.👈

     ...could be reasons to get a vaccine sooner rather than later👈 , such as
     personal risk of severe disease, risk of disease in a loved one or close contact,
     local COVID-19 hospital admission level, and
     the most common COVID-19 variant currently causing illness.

     People who already had COVID-19 and do not get vaccinated after their recovery are more likely to get COVID-19 again than those who get vaccinated after their recovery."
