These antibodies protect a person from recurrent infections,” Dr Samreen Kulsoom wrote in her study published in the Oxford University Journal of Public Health. “Immunity has led to changes in the structure of the virus, which has reduced its ability to spread; therefore, the second wave in Pakistan will not be severe.”Khanani advised people with weakened immune systems to be careful.
