Not surprising though ? Efficacy rate is not that high. What is surprising is the vaccine does lead to acute reaction in many cases - fever, malaise etc, but the counts are low/non reactive.

Who the f**k orders food at that time? Absolutely pathetic. Now I am ordering entire day's food in afternoon itself. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dylanjosh Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 25 minutes ago, Mr. Comingle said: Yeah my uncle and grandma got horrible fever for 2 days from the first dose. I hope the second dose works. They've actually adjusted the schedule to reflect the new findings. Second dose will be given after 6-8 weeks now. They had no issues getting the vaccine. I'm personally satisfied with the vaccine rollout and how fast they're changing the strategy to adapt to new studies. Although, it's high time they allow other vaccines too and allow people to buy them. We should target 100% inoculation this year which doesn't look possible at current rate. My mum had a bad headache and body pain the next day. After that some light fever. She was fine after taking a crocin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacifier Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 Are there different anti-body tests? As part of package from 1mg, we got antibody test done for father that turned out +ve. The Antibody test is COVID ANTIBODY TOTAL- ELISA. There is no mention of igG etc. The only thing mentioned is if its >1 then its positive and the value was 6.4. (OD Ratio) Not sure what it means PS: He also got vaccinated first dose recently and got minor red swelling in the vaccinated area with no pain. I doubt antibody test is +ve because of vaccination but booked RT-PCR test for tomorrow to confirm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psinide Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 What is the protocol after vaccinations? Will the hospital schedule the anti-body tests after each dose to check the efficacy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KunjanPSD Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 My parents got fever a day after 1st dose. Subsided within a couple days after taking paracetamol and next dose is meant to be given after 6-8 weeks. Hopefully ABs will develop.

T cells are mostly active in asymptomatic individuals, who have a low antibody titre.....something like what @Big Boss might be going through. But there's supposedly a 4 fold increase in antibody titre, i talked to many colleagues, sabke liye non-reactive hai. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or got infected but it didn't spread so much to get detected in RT PCR and even antibodies didn't form? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I have to worry when 3 members of my family got infected without going out and I am not. And I have the worst immunity. Get viral flu each year. In 2019 I had terrible bronchitis for a month. Before that I had dengue, jaundice, typhoid etc etc. And with Covid here we are. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Right Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 3 hours ago, Banz said: Maharashtra is doing 4L per day for the last 2-3 days. 50-60L per day is very much possible for the whole country. There is still scope to scale it up more and do 1 crore per day or thereabouts. 1Cr per day will be wonderful, though I doubt if we can get there soon. Plus summers are already here. They should take advantage of elections which is happening in the so many states. After casting your vote, get jabbed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in P1/2 studies, there was an equal rise in cellular and humoral immunity, but not really seen IRL. Weird, eh ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how true but if your immune system has already experienced similar viruses it will detect covid 19 much faster. Could be reason you didn't get it.
