Coronavirus antibodies last for at least six months after infection for the majority of people who have had the virus, according to a new study.

Research from UK Biobank, a major biomedical database and research resource, measured the levels of previous infection in various population groups across the nation.

According to the study, 99 per cent of participants who had tested positive for previous infection retained coronavirus antibodies for three months after being infected, while 88 per cent did so for the full six months of the study.

Experts say this indicates antibodies produced following natural infection may provide a degree of protection for most people against getting infected again for at least six months.
