Why isn’t natural immunity a reason not to get vaccinated?
American Thinker ^ | 31 Aug, 2021 | Joe Strader

It turns out that there are plenty of reasons why the powers that be don’t want people to know whether they have antibodies or not.

(SNIP)

For a while, there was no easy way to test for natural immunity. When those tests came out, I found that I had to travel 100 miles to get one and that my insurance would not cover the $160.

Now, the very new COVID tests are widely available for those feeling ill or curious. They’ve been passing out the COVID tests like candy at the Christmas parade, which explains why antibody testing did not take off. Why should it? If one had COVID as determined by the nasal probe, then one would achieve natural immunity and be good to go, assuming one survives the virus.

But still, why aren’t we testing for natural immunity to see who needs the vaccine? It would make sense that those with the superior antibodies shouldn’t need to risk a vaccine that still has some questions attached to it. There are reasons we do not look for natural immunity or even talk about it. The reasons are not scientific.

The first reason is that testing people for natural immunity as a screen for the vaccine would reveal possibly millions of people who successfully survived a “deadly” disease without any long-lasting harm or even knowing that they had it. The Democrats must maintain the narrative that this virus is a deadly scourge of mankind. People who survive and have immunity without even realizing it make it a lot less dangerous and scary—but scary is important to the narrative.

The fear is important to get people to give up incrementally greater levels of freedom with each new variant of COVID.

The drug companies have a lot of leftover vaccines to sell. That’s why they don’t count natural immunity.

Amazon’s home PCR snot tests aren’t available in NYS.

We’re the only state you can’t get one from Amazon.

Hmmmm, now why could that be...? 🤔

Not checking for antibodies shows the Medicos and Public Health personnel to be morally bankrupt.

Worst part: Docs are telling patients they don’t need a titer first. Especially for patients who previously had it or suspected they might, I think telling patients that they don’t need a titer first is unpardonable.

It’s all about the Benjamins.

Some quotes that seem to fit—

“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.” —H.L. Mencken

“The welfare of the people…has always been the alibi of tyrants...giving the servants of tyranny a good conscience.” —Albert Camus

Finally seeing more discussions about natural immunity.

I’ve been yelling at my computer for months about this.

Posted this on FR previously. I recently saw my doctor for my annual check-up, which i get every five years. He took three viles of blood from me to complete an array of tests. I told him i wanted to be tested for CCP virus anti-bodies.

Ten days later he calls me back with the results...”blah, blah, blah... Covid anti-bodies- positive. 2.6 H (the H means high as in a lot of anti-bodies.) He then says “You’ve been vaccinated, correct?” I said, “Nope, have not.”

I get the results back on paper form and it says the metric for testing positive for the anti-bodies is 1.4, meaning i had almost twice the anti-bodies required for a positive test. CIGNA then sent me a letter saying they would pay for all the blood test except the CCP virus anti-body test because it was not necessary- $42.13 on my end.

I have not been sick except once during the whole CCP thing and when i was sick i got a CCP virus test and it came back negative.

I have no intention of getting the vaccine despite the fact my left wing company, Prudential Insurance, will demand it (though we’ve been told only home office employees will be force to get vaxxed).

The woman who owns the dry cleaners i use got really sick with the CCP virus along with her husband. She then got vaxxed with Pfizer. I saw her the other day and she told me ever since she took the second shot she’s had bronchitis. She’s been battling the bronchitis the past three months despite never previously having it. She said, “taking the vaccine was the worst decision i ever made.”

My brother had 4 negative at home tests, done daily, before his 5th one turned up positive. By then he had an O2 level of 87, and needed supplemental oxygen. It was too late for the antibody treatment by then. He had all the classic symptoms of CoVid that worsened every day. So I wouldn’t necessarily trust those at home tests.

that is, indeed, THE question.

the answer requires a degree of cynicism.

I had a dose of the Covid in January, 1920. Never got the jab. I asked my doctor if there is a test I could take to prove that I had antibodies. He told me not to bother. The PCR tests are not accurate. However, in the face of mandatory passports, it would be a good thing to have a immune passport.

It’s damned suspicious, especially since those who were exposed to SARS in 2003 have the antibodies for SARS COVID-19. That’s eighteen years of defense, and likely a lifetime. Yet the experimental treatments require “boosters” to continue to fail.

How long do antibodies last? I heard it varies from person to person and you would need constant testing to see if you still had antibody protection. Of course, that begs the question of how long will the vaccine last…

thenharvard study on this proved what other docs and people here have been saying, it’s far superior to the “vaccine” immunity by far any way its measured
