Horowitz: New studies show robust immunity among health care workers from COVID reinfection six months after infection
The Blaze ^ | January 7, 2021 | Daniel Horowitz

Nearly a year into this virus, it has become clear that, after up to a third of the people in this country already contracted it, according to some estimates, there is nothing we can do to stop it through non-pharmaceutical interventions. Yet, while the government and media continue to push the vaccine (and masks, of course) with religious fervor, they act as if natural infection itself confers little or no immunity. In reality, as with any virus, it likely confers more immunity than a vaccine.

A new study published in the New England Journal of Medicine by U.K. scientists tracked antibody levels of 12,541 health care workers in Oxford University hospitals for six months. A total of 1,265 tested positive for antibodies at some point during the study period, of which 68% recall having had symptoms associated with SARS-CoV-2. They specifically observed the period of the second wave of infection to see if health care workers, who are disproportionately exposed to the virus relative to other people, would be re-infected.

The result? Not a single symptomatic reinfection and just two people who had previously tested positive for antibodies wound up testing positive via PCR testing for a presumed asymptomatic reinfection.

The important fact to remember is that immunity does not necessarily mean one cannot have the presence of the virus detected in his body thereafter. What it usually means is that one who is infected, particularly if one had at least a moderate case of it, will not suffer meaningful or serious symptoms from a reinfection. This is likely true of most viruses – whether immunity was conveyed through infection or a vaccine – but we don't test 1 million people per day for other viruses. Were we to do so...

you think these tyrants are going to let go of this COVID power and all it’s gotten the?

They’ll still push the lie of “new strain” to keep people under their thumbs.

No not science it can’t be... I have to wonder if the original cold was this bad to begin with then humans adjusted to it.

Yeah, like the study they claim shows most cases are caught from asymptomatic people. Riiight.

COVID-19 is easily TREATED, almost a 100% cure rate.

Quit believing the media and the Fauci whores who love BIG PHARMA and their $Billions

This link shows the Doctors drugs and doses used to achieve a 100% cure rate

That makes it sound like the immune system is treating Covid-19 like a virus!?

Doesn’t the immune system know that is politically incorrect?
