All antibodies wane. That’s the nature of B cell lymphocytes: they literally work themselves to death. 90% die after an infection is beaten. The other 10% live on as Memory B cells. If the same pathogen is encountered again in the future, they’ll quickly replicate themselves and begin producing antibodies again. This is literally how it works for every single infection ever.

The antibodies produced from an infection are always specific to the antigens from that infection. You think people who got COVID-19 infections are somehow more immune or have different antibodies? They’re not. In fact, most of them are less immune. Look at the P.1 (Brazil) variant. It hit cities in Brazil where 70% of the people had the April 2020 variant already (recovered from infection). But P.1 hit the same people again. It didn’t care that they’d been infected before. Testing indicates that while the vaccines have less efficacy against P.1, they’re still very effective against it.

And yes, the immunity is neutralizing immunity. The data from Israel shows that the Pfizer vaccine blocks 94% of asymptomatic infections and 97% of symptomatic infections.

Such as Herd immunity is no longer possible with the human immune system?

When you catch a disease, you are likely to catch it over and over again unless a vaccine is produced to save us all?

When a experimental treatment is called a vaccine, it IS a vaccine, even though it does not protect you from getting sick, or spreading the virus to others?

That a mask with pores 1,000 times larger than the virus will stop it from being breathed out or in?

That the virus is carried in the moisture of the breath, which clearly is proven when you are in cold weather and no “steam” from your breath comes from the mask?
