yokohama city university and other institutions conducted a study of 376 people in their 20s to 70s.the subjects were infected between february and may and gave blood samples six months later. the researchers found what are called neutralizi antibodies in the blood samples. they were present in nearly all of those with mild or no symptoms and in everyone who had suffered moderate or serious symptoms. neutralizing antibodies are believed to weaken the functions of a virus and prevent subsequent infections. the researchers say that people who have been in serious condition tend to have stronger antibodies. that suggests there may be a lower risk of reinfection for at least six months. the researchers say the finding is good news for developing vaccines which are designed to trigger an antibody response. they say they will carry out a follow up study after another six months. >>> japan is putting a system in place so that when vaccines for the coronavirus are ready they can get to the people who need them. the diet enacted revisions to the relevant law on wednesday. the law now stipulat
