...or at least, that it lasts a minimum time that we have not yet reached.

The six months will, hopefully, get pushed to seven, then eight. If it eventually runs out, the ongoing studies will show it, and it's likely that a booster shot will be all that is needed renew it.

I don't know if we have any idea how long natural immunity lasts, or whether it is variable based on an individual infection, because I'm not sure it's been effectively studied.

If I may ask, why do you want to avoid being vaccinated?

        Vaccine immunity isn’t based on assumptions. - ndroman21 2021-04-15 15:09:36
        "Better" is not only my statement - elcortez01 2021-04-15 15:29:35
        They're not projecting anythiing from the trials. - ndroman21 2021-04-15 15:42:44
