Data From 2,000 Vaccinated People in Moscow to Be Used for Epidemiological Studies of SARS-CoV-2 Immunity

@COVID19Up: Epidemiological studies of immunity to SARS-CoV-2 after vaccination will be conducted on 2,000 Muscovites, who had received the Sputnik V shot in recent months, Moscow mayor Sergei Sobyanin said in his personal blog posted on Thursday.

"One of the most important ones [Sputnik V related research] is the epidemiological study of immunity after COVID-19 vaccination, which we have started this week. Two thousand people that received the first component of the Sputnik V vaccine 3 to 6 months ago will take an antibody test each month, from February to August. This way, we will be able to observe dynamic changes in all study participants 9-10 months and even as long as one year after being vaccinated," Sobyanin said.

The mayor noted that the study will allow to determine whether COVID-19 re-vaccination will be required before the upcoming fall-winter season.
