Yahoo Finance’s Anjalee Khemlani joins the Live show to break down a new study that showed COVID-19 vaccines offer some protection against long-COVID.
BRAD SMITH: It was three years ago that the first COVID-19 case was diagnosed in the United States. But this morning comes with some positive data. A new study showing COVID-19 vaccines offer protection against long COVID. Yahoo Finance’s Anjalee Khemlani has the details on this one. Anj.
ANJALEE KHEMLANI: That’s right. Three years ago, the first positive case from a man in Washington State, but now here we are, entering year 4, and we still haven’t learned absolutely everything we need to know about COVID and long COVID. But new study out showing that there is protection up to 41% of a reduced risk of long COVID for anyone who gets vaccinated after being infected. That’s coming out in a new report in Jama and showing that there is some long-term benefits for these vaccines.
Now we know that there has been a lot of discussion about the vaccines and their drop in antibody levels several months after being injected. But at least we know now that there is some hope for those long COVID sufferers. There is something in these vaccines to help protect long-term. And that’s really good news because we know we’re still learning about how to deal with long COVID as well.
JARED BLIKRE: Yes, we are, and a lot to learn here. Thank you for that report, Anjalee Khemlani.
