Chrysants: “Johnson & Johnson vaccine hardly protects after 2 months”

“The Johnson & Johnson” covid vaccine “after 2 months in fact hardly protects anything anymore. This is something that should surprise us all. This vaccination was started when Johnson & Johnson was aware of the vaccine’s limitations.” These are the words of Professor Andrea Crisanti in Piazzapulita. “It’s a sensational thing”, says Corrado Formigli. Read also “The FDA in America was quick to rectify the conditions of approval by imposing the second dose. We started vaccinating while Johnson & Johnson was aware of the limited duration of the limited duration of vaccination. Why? Executives should be asked”, adds Crisanti. “The Italian situation for the moment is better than in England because we vaccinated later. We have a lag of about 4 months. In England most people got vaccinated between March and April. In Italy, between April and July “, says Crisanti. “The protection of vaccination lasts about 6 months, it is not an opinion: studies on 4.5 million people have shown that after 6 months the protection decreases from 95% to 40% and in the same period against complications the protection decreases from 90% to 65%. The green pass should be aligned with vaccine protection, but this means that in 3 months only those who have taken the third dose can have the green pass. If we want to restore a level of protection for the elderly and the frail, they must do the third dose as soon as possible, “he says again.
