If he just keeps up his vitamin D, vitamin C, zinc and other nutrient levels, he’s likely to have a better immune system than the pro-vax retards (often themselves with self-induced co-morbidities) who want to nanny-state his immune system.

It may be that lawsuits are what is needed to restore the rights of employees to own and operate their own immune systems. The whole argument hinges on whether asymptomatic people can make others sick...which most can’t.

** operate their own immune systems**
the burden is on the employee to come up with a adequate argument that the accommodations the employer makes aren’t reasonable.

**The whole argument hinges on whether asymptomatic people can make others sick.**

Asymptomatic is not a permanent state. Asymptomatic doesn’t imply immunity. A more correct way to look at it is, can an asymptomatic get sick tomorrow and can an asymptomatic transmit disease? Why, yes, yes they can.

” about one in five infected people will experience no symptoms, and they will transmit the virus to significantly fewer people than someone with symptoms...
Byambasuren’s review also found that asymptomatic individuals were 42% less likely to transmit the virus than symptomatic people.

(for those in Rio Linda the above means that 58% were AS likely to transmit the virus.)

The CDC still has asymptomatic transmission up on their website - at 50%:

“asymptomatic or presymptomatic infected wearers who feel well and may be unaware of their infectiousness... are estimated to account for more than 50% of transmissions.1,2”
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/more/masking-science-sars-cov2.html

back to Vit C/Zinc - that’s something to make your own informed decision about. Personally, I like B12 (stress) and D3(sunshine) in normal, daily amounts and a lion’s portion of winter citrus. According to a recent study we shouldn’t expect medicine-cabinet miracles:

“There was no significant difference in the primary outcome of days required to reach a 50% reduction in symptoms among the 4 study groups... both the number of hospitalizations and deaths did not significantly vary among the 4 treatment groups. “ (214 patients followed)
