...One of the challenges people foresaw with vaccines for a virus that mutates a lot like the flu is that the immunity against the spike protein might not work against mutant strains. But studies thus far have show that natural immunity is even more robust. A new preprint study from French researchers tested blood samples from health care workers who never had the virus but got both Pfizer shots against blood samples from those health care workers who had a previous mild infection and a third group of patients who had a serious case of COVID. They found, "No neutralisation escape could be feared concerning the two variants 53 of concern in both populations" of those previously infected. At the same time, the effectiveness of even prior mild infection against the South African variant appeared stronger than in those who had the Pfizer shots.....
It simply makes no sense that natural immunity, which is much broader, would be worse than vaccination. Remember, we don't collect convalescent plasma from vaccinated people; we collect it from previously infected people. Thus, even if one believes the risk of side effects from the vaccine is low, it's definitely higher than the benefit of vaccinating a convalescent COVID patient, which is zero. In fact, several preprint studies are raising questions about the safety of the vaccines, particularly for those whose immune systems have already been primed by the virus.
A University of Manchester study of 2,000 vaccinated adults, 26% of whom already had the virus, found that "prior COVID-19 infection was associated with increased risk of any side effect" as well as "increased risk of severe side effects, leading to hospital care."...

This program would cover T-Cell testing.
I agree. These vaccines may counter the natural immunity that children seem to have.
Title should read: The “profitability” of “mandating” mass vaccinations to those already recovered from COVID.
Never had a flu shot. Never had the flu... that I know of. Wife tested positive for COVID, headache and mild cough. There is no way I didn’t get it from her, but no symptoms. No shots for us. Fauci, Keep your needles for the masses.
I wish someone would take advantage of the “profitability” of T-cell testing. All the testing companies for COVID itself made off like bandits with all the mandatory testing.
At least the T-cell testing would do some good.
Science, reason, logic rationality all out the window with this Covid.
And the irrational claim to idolize science.
But it’s like immunology can’t be believed, infectious disease science doesn’t exist, epidemiology is of no consequence.
I too, have not had the flue since I was a kid. That was a long time ago. I got my first flu vaccination just before the C-virus outbreak and now, both Moderna shots. Needle technology has come a long way because I could hardly feel a thing. A yellow jacket sting is worse.
That's okay, I like staying home =p
This is insanity. If you caught COVID, you have immunity. Derp
