However, a booster dose will be necessary prior to the winter season as antibody levels are likely to wane, Moderna said.

Separately, Moderna said its studies of three different booster candidates induced robust antibody responses against variants, including the Gamma, Beta and Delta variants.

For this year, Moderna has signed vaccine contracts worth $20 billion in sales and aims to produce between 800 million and 1 billion doses. The company, however, has not been able to keep pace with the production of much larger rival Pfizer, which expects to manufacture as many as 3 billion doses this year, and$33.5 billion. Moderna's vaccine was authorized for emergency use in adults in the United States in December and has since been cleared for emergency or conditional use in adults in more than 50 countries.

So what to do after 6 months

what a crock of used car salesman shit!!!!!

Key word « likely » ... one way for the company to keep cashing in $ How about having an independent lab test the level of antibodies every week for the next 5 months before drawing conclusions

My Son was vaccinated in February and now has COVID. We will probably need a booster.

Efficacy dropped 1% in six months, so I don't see the rationale for assuming a booster will be needed soon. As a Moderna shareholder, however....

Cha..mf’n..ching...

Release the boosters!

So y'all said natural antibodies didn't last, then kept quiet when it was discovered otherwise, now it's actually the vaccine that doesn't last and we gonna need a booster. How often will we need a booster? coronavirus
