Positive Covid Test Immunity vs Vaccine

Jump to newest

Hi

Wondering if anyone can say if you are a carrier for any length of time after a Positive Test Result. I’ve heard you need a gap of up to 90 days if you are going for elective surgery?

Also if you’ve had a positive test and therefore have immunity does that mean the vaccine is no longer needed ?

Anyone enlighten me .. have thoughts on it ?

Thanks in advance.

Who's current research has shown immunity can last month's, in some cases up to 6 months and could possibly last longer, however they believe it won't be lifelong, however research is still underway...

Data on the pfizer vaccine on duration of immunity is not yet available

In regards to the first question i think you can be infectious for 14 days from infection (not always start of symptoms)

Can anyone really say how long a person is infectious for really though? I mean, i have a friend who got sick abt 3 weeks having probably picked it up around xmas. According to the self isolation guidance following her positive test result (taken about 5 days after had first symptoms) she would have been able to go out a week ago. Except she was still to ill to. She was having trouble breathing so got seen at out of hours and given antibiotics which she's still taking. She's still getting breathless attempting household chores. I really wonder if she is ok to going to supermarkets.

Surely the infection might last longer in some people?

It's unlikely to be actively replicating virus causing symptoms by that point, but rather the inflammatory processes of the immune system which can cause significant organ damage in some people.

Ayyee i believe currently this is correct (unless there's some change in evidence) the virus is no longer contagious however some patients experience long lasting effects, I know of an elderly lady who had Covid and then passed from complication that occurs due to the infection, but 3 months later.

Many/most people will be asymptomatic or have very light/short symptoms however the reasons above are exactly why we need to follow the guidelines to protect the elderly/vulnerable

Stay safe guys

It can cause problems for months afterwards! I'm still suffering shortness of breath and fatigue months later and I've had a number of negative COVID tests since then so know I'm not still infected

I must say, some of the pictures in your gallery caused me slight breathlessness

Track and trace actually say it is 10 days from when you have been in contact with someone who is tested positive, or when symptoms start or from positive test if asymptomatic.

Also, if you have had an infection, it is still wise to get the vaccine, as immunity from the vaccine is better understood andmay likely may give more enduring immunity, once you have had the booster shot.

I was told I can’t have a planned elective surgery until 90 days after a positive test.

So goes against the Government’s message that after 14 days you’re unlikely to infect people.

Some research now says even if you have had it, you could still pass it on even after that 14 day period.

My parents being 80 & 70yr old with underlying health issues put them at high risk. So still a worrying time for me even though I thought catching it might mean I am a lower risk to them.

Roll on Summer time when the Online Vaccine Calculator says I’m likely to be offered the jab.

Are most people likely to take up the Vaccine or not ? Anyone worried about it ?

Not true, I’ve had covid and still had the vaccine and was advised too.

Also don’t need a gap of 90 days at my local trust. Just 2 week isolation and and a negative test prior.

For people that have tested positive previous to this, and it’s still showing on their test as positive the operation can go ahead as usual.

(Private is the same as above too)xx

Where is the evidence to suggest that? I dont believe that immunity from the vaccine is better understood than immunity from actual infectious agents that has been studied for years

..in fact I think there is more known about immunity to SARS and MERS than there is to any vaccine tested in the last 12 months.
