not to the original poster, but rhetorically, why does it matter if you lose the antibodies if you had no symptoms when you got it and presumably will have no symptoms if you get it again?
It would be inefficient for the body to maintain antibodies for things that don’t harm it.
Are they trying to sell the idea that herd immunity isn’t herd immunity?
Ignorance is one thing; stupid is another.
No, your blood does maintain the same level antibodies the rest of your life.
The question is, which propagates faster, the virus or the antibodies your body now knows how to create? Get another infection, odds are that the antibodies will explode in number such that you never know you had the virus, or if you do ... your sickness will be very short.
That’s how your immune system works. It’s not rocket science.
Antibody levels almost always decline in the post infection period. However once programed the immune system quicly gears up if confronted again with the virus. Also there is no good test to evaluate for T cell immunity that is also likely to be present in people who were infected. The best news is that there are very few documented cases of people who were infected a second time.
Oh goodness, here we go again.
Just because antibodies are not testable at the time, does not mean the body cannot create more once indicated to do so.
Have we really forgotten everything we know about the human immune system? They all act like our immune system creates antibodies forever, and that our immune system has no memory nor the ability to create more antibodies once attacked again.
And people eat it up.... please lock me down more, we need to crush freedom to deal with this virus!
If the asymptotic lose antibodies quicker, were they ever actually SICK in the first place?
The number of CASES of Covid19 are grossly overexaggerated
Covid tends to depend on the amount of dosage you get. If you get a large dose, it can overwhelm your immune system. That’s why so many medical people got sick with it.
A “government study”. The fear mongering has been insane over there, more so than here.
So you have a government run health system insisting that everyone must stay home, COVID tests that always seem to be positive (people have sent in tests from their dog, water puddles, etc.), resulting in the “2nd wave hyperbole”, and now scares everyone even more with “doesn’t matter if you had it” message - all while taking away your rights.
...yet almost all of them believe the government. It’s amazing. I know there’s been some protests but there’s still far too much trust in a government - one that takes away your rights and justifies it with their own statistics generated from them controlling the testing. Astonishing.
It’s like “V for Vendetta” - but real.
But T Cell resistance may remain
Aka “ invisible immunity” that may be protecting almost half the population from ever showing signs of infection
Many studies ongoing
Who cares? If you don’t die from it, just recover and move on.
