It's going to be hard to say, viruses as we know (old biology 101 right... are not static. Also quite interesting today that several The John's Hopkins virologists and M.D.'s believe the one does may last longer and be more effective moving forward, their conclusion is the efficacy may not be on any concern as there would be boosters as the virus replicates and changes in structure, explained that efficacy "stats" do not always reflect that the higher the better, just too many other considerations, but more to come I would guess based on their analysis.
