Dr Z withdrawing bloo d from a participant
Today, it is common to include, “Dah va ccine sik?” in our greetings.
But have you ever wondered what ha ppened to our antibody after receiving COVID-19 vaccination?
Our own virologist, Dr. Tan Cheng Siang, and his team are conducting a study to elu cidate the curious behavior of our antibody progression after COVID-19 vacc ination. They are attempting to find out when our bodies will produce the h ighest concentration of antibody and how long this will last. The team plan s to compare the effects from three COVID-19 vaccines – Pfizer, Astra Zenec a, and Sinovac.
Here’s some extra information for us.
After vac cination, our body will create the Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody (thus creating all the chaos that some people experience after the jab, like fever, fatigu e, body aches, rashes, sleep disturbances, etc.). Currently, studies show t hat the Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody concentration ranges from 0 to 22,000AU/mL . Protection against the COVID-19 infection, however, can only be obtained when the concentration of the antibody exceeds 4000AU/mL.
What does t his mean for you and I?
Studies have shown that the antibody producti on varies from one person to another. In some cases, the antibody does not last long and may be diminished in less than one year. In some cases, howev er, the antibody is found to be extraordinarily long lasting.
The res earch on how human (immune system) react to vaccination is caried out aroun d the world, but Dr. Tan’s study is the first for us in Sarawak. Remember t hat the Sarawak demography is a fusion of ethnicity -- in other words, DNA rojak!
To complete their study, Dr. Tan needs more participa nts who have been vaccinated with Pfizer (60 participants) and Astra Zeneca (150 participants). If you are above 18 years old, have been vaccinated wi thin three days (72 hours before) with Pfizer or Astra Zeneca, and would li ke to contribute, please do!
