Covid-19 Vaccine 2nd Dose Gap: Vaccination is being done continuously to control the corona virus in most countries including India. In most countries, 2 doses of vaccine have been required for this. But the gap between the two doses is constantly being brought to the limelight. Recently, in India too, the gap between 2 doses of Kovishield has been increased. Now the question arises that what is the benefit of increasing the gap between 2 doses. A new study in this regard claims that if the gap in the second dose of the vaccine is prolonged, then 300 percent more antibodies can be prepared. This report has been published in Bloomberg.
Research has shown that the first dose of the vaccine prepares the immune system and starts making antibodies against the virus. In this case, the more time this reaction gets, the better the response will be of the second dose. The benefits of long intervals in doses have been seen in all vaccines.
Immune system increases
According to a Bloomberg report, delay in the second dose of the vaccine is beneficial for both the supply and immune system. Research has shown that if the second dose of the vaccine is received late, then the level of antibodies fighting the virus can increase from 20 percent to 300 percent. In such a situation, this new discovery can prove beneficial for many countries including Singapore and India.
The problem of supply will also be overcome
Once again, there is a slight increase in cases in Singapore. Due to which the gap between the two doses has been reduced to 4-6 weeks. Earlier this interval was 3-4 weeks. At the same time, in India too, the gap between 2 doses of Kovishield has been increased to 12-16 weeks. Increasing the gap can also remove problems in the supply side of the vaccine. It is expected that countries with low vaccine dose and high population can work on this policy.
Why two doses of vaccine are important
Why two doses of the vaccine are important. Think of it like that if the first dose produces antibodies in your body, then the second dose makes the antibodies stronger. Only when both the work is done in the right way, our body becomes fit to fight against any disease. This is the reason why companies are taking vaccines against Corona for preparing double dose vaccine, so both vaccines are necessary.
But the gap should not be much
If the interval between the two doses is more, then the countries will take more time to secure the population. Because the first dose of the vaccine provides some protection, but even after several weeks of the second dose, the person cannot be considered completely immunized. In addition, if less effective vaccines are being used or more infectious variants of the virus are spreading, then increasing the interval between two doses can also be dangerous.
