"We are also used to it when it comes to the flu. Two doses are given first, and then one dose each year. We will probably have that situation with this disease as well," Tiodorovic told TV Prva, Tanjug reports.
He said that it is not necessary for everyone to be tested for antibodies and "create drama" because, as he pointed out, all four vaccines that are currently available to the citizens of Serbia develop an antibody titer that protects.
He added that whether it will last for a longer or shorter period of time depends on the type of vaccine.
