Has it been confirmed yet how long the vaccine immunity lasts? I think the first were in December last year so some people will be 6 months in now.

Is it going to be a rolling 2 jabs every year from here on in?

Probably the same volume of 'flu jabs will be administered

My personal expectation is that anyone aged 50+ or under that age who would also qualify for a flu jab, will be offered both this autumn.

Someone I know took part in the Novavax trial. They were testing a joint flu/covid jab at the same time. Makes me wonder if they've earmarked that stock for this purpose.

Immunity is probably for life, so all depends on variants.

Had COVID? You’ll probably make antibodies for a lifetime

People who recover from mild COVID-19 have bone-marrow cells that can churn out antibodies for decades, although viral variants could dampen some of the protection they offer.
