Although natural immunity exists, health experts say inoculation is safer
The Galveston County Daily News, September 29, 2021
Vaccines protect better than natural immunity. Dr. Richard Rupp, assistant director of the Sealy Center for Vaccine Development at UTMB, spoke to the newspaper about the evidence. “We know natural immunity is limited,” Rupp said. “Healthy people start getting reinfected as soon as six months after their initial infection. There is a good chance that natural immunity will only protect for three to five years.”
