Coronavirus Immunity, Can Last for More <br />Than 6 Months, New Study Finds.<br />Researchers from the La Jolla Institute for Immunology, <br />UC San Diego and the Icahn School of Medicine <br />published the study online on Monday.<br />Blood samples from 185 participants, <br />ages 19 thru 81, who had recovered from <br />a mild case of COVID-19 were analyzed.<br />Observing several aspects <br />of the "immune memory" <br />of the patients, .<br />researchers detected <br />particular cells that indicate <br />COVID-19 immunity may <br />extend well beyond six months.<br />They also noted that immunity is the not same for everyone.<br />There is "a degree of variation from person to person.".<br />This variation might be due to some <br />individuals having had very low-level <br />asymptomatic infection, Lawrence Young, Oncology Professor, <br />via CNN .<br />Despite this, researchers say that "the significant take-home message is that the immune response to the virus is more long-lived than previously thought."
