What makes young people more resistant than the elderly to Corona?

A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association revealed that young people have more antibodies to the Corona virus than older people, and the research conducted by “Oregon Health and Science University” examined 50 participants who received their second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine two weeks ago, and divided the participants according to For their ages, they then tested their blood serum for antibodies produced by the original coronavirus strain and a single variant, according to a report by the Times of India.

The results of the American study revealed that people in their twenties had 7 times stronger antibody responses than people over 70, and data collected from the study indicated a linear progression of lower antibody levels from younger participants to older ones.

The emergence of new variants of the Corona virus has raised questions about the effectiveness of vaccines given against the virus, as cases have emerged in which people who have been fully vaccinated have shown positive results for the delta and lambda viruses from Corona, and the fact that experts have confirmed is that vaccines do not provide complete protection against the virus, but they reduce the risk of infection. Chances of contracting the virus or reducing the severity of the disease in the event of a re-infection with any of the strains of Covid-19.

Experts explained that it is very difficult to determine who has more antibodies after vaccination or who are more likely to be infected again, but a recent study on this topic revealed that the immune response to the virus depends on several factors, one of which is age.

The co-author of the study explained that despite the low level of antibody response among the elderly, vaccination is still important, and that vaccination is the only way to stay safe and reduce the risk of complications against the virus compared to natural infection.

It is reported that getting a vaccine is the only way to protect against serious complications from Corona, and vaccination is especially important for the elderly because their immune system is weak and they need more protection.

The Corona virus has caused the death of 4,156,164 people in the world since the World Health Organization office in China reported the emergence of the disease at the end of December 2019, according to a census conducted by Agence France-Presse based on official sources Sunday at 10,00:XNUMX GMT.

The United States is the country most affected in terms of deaths, followed by Brazil, India, Mexico and Peru.

The World Health Organization, taking into account the excess mortality rate directly or indirectly related to Covid-19, considers that the outcome of the epidemic may be two or three times greater than the officially announced outcome.
