Will the vaccine prevent viral transmission?
I'm very confident that transmission between people will be reduced by such a highly effective vaccine
maybe not 90% but maybe 50%

How long will immunity last?
Antibody response in patients, will decline over time
Booster immunisation should not be too complicated
