DESCRIPTION:\n	\n		\n			 \n				How long does immunity to COVID-19 last?\n					Waning immun
 ity\, boosters\, and dosing intervals\n\n				With the arrival of Omicron and t
 he looming threat of other emerging variants\, one important question to b
 e answered is: how long does immunity to SARS-CoV-2 last?\n\n				The evidence 
 will be essential to determining Canada’s booster strategy that aims to mi
 tigate future waves of infection\, prevent undue stress on the healthcare 
 system\, and keep the population safe.\n\n				At our next Research Results & I
 mplications seminar\, COVID-19 Immunity Task Force (CITF) experts will exp
 lain the reasons behind waning antibody levels\, the importance of other f
 eatures of the immune system\, the need for vaccine boosters\, and the bes
 t dosing intervals to achieve maximum protection.\n\n				Please join us for th
 e presentation which will be followed by a panel discussion and a question
 -and-answer period.\n\n				\n					Moderator:\n\n					\n						Nazeem Muhajarine\, PhD\, Profess
