Still unclear how long COVID-19 vaccine protection lasts: FDA
One of the biggest unanswered questions scientists have about the COVID-19 vaccine is how long virus protection will last after people get two doses. While more research needs to be done before any official guidance is released, Dr. Peter Marks, director of the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research at the Food and Drug Administration, said early vaccine trials may provide clues.
At the very least, a two-shot vaccination should offer at least several months of protection, Marks explained during an interview with the Journal of the American Medical Association on Monday.
"It's at least probably on the order of four to six months," Marks said. "The question is, will it reach out to a year? Hopefully, yes. But I think we’ll have those data in the not so different future."
