Vaccines are designed to induce a strong and long-lasting immune response through the creation of memory T cells and B cells. The Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) vaccine, given during early childhood, and Tetanus-Diphtheria-Pertussis (Tdap) vaccine, given every 10 years, are known to elicit a protective response against the diseases from which the vaccines get their names. But these vaccines may have an unexpected bonus: It's possible that they also elicit cross-reactive memory T cells capable of responding to protein targets called antigens that are present in other microbes that cause diseases—including the viral antigens in SARS-CoV-2. The concept is that pre-existing memory T cells generated by prior MMR or Tdap vaccination and activated by SARS-CoV-2 infection give the immune system a head start in responding to SARS-CoV-2, thereby lowering the risk of severe COVID-19.
"Our Cleveland Clinic colleagues observed an association where individuals with COVID-19 who had either MMR or Tdap vaccines had a much lower frequency of going to the intensive care unit or dying," said co-author Andrew Lichtman, MD, Ph.D. "Although previous smaller studies suggested a similar link, our in-depth epidemiological analyses, together with our basic research results, suggest that these commonly given vaccines may protect against severe disease."
The team's investigation was jumpstarted by an unexpected observation. Mayadas, her postdoctoral fellow Vijaya Mysore, Ph.D., and colleagues noted in laboratory experiments using COVID-19 convalescent blood that whenever they observed a heightened T cell response to SARS-CoV-2 proteins, they also saw a heightened response to proteins from MMR and Tdap, which they had been using as controls. This was observed with both COVID-19 convalescent and uninfected individuals vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2.

Maybe all the jabs I got in the military weren’t a waste of time after all.
I got the second Moderna shot this morning. And now I'm stuck to the refrigerator door with the other magnets. If I could just get the door open and reach the butter, I think I could slide off the edge.
The knives on the wall are rattling ominously.
Fortunately I'm leaving pencil marks on everything I touch. So I've scribbled my will on the back of a cereal box on top of the refrigerator.
Excellent. 😂😂😂😂
I have been reading quite a few scientific articles on this.
Mixed reviews.
One study indicated HIB provided the most protection . I believe this was a theory based on similar scientific matches.
the pneumonia 13 shot may also provide protection as per studies.
So did they account for age bias?
Because the younger people have the MMR and TDAP vaccines.
This had been suggested earlier and it’s nice to see evidence being found to support it.
It may be one reason children are so unaffected by it.
Oh goody. Big Pharma can sell some other vaccines. Yeah Big Pharma. You go girl!
As a new grandparent we just got those shots again in March.
Perhaps this is why younger people aren’t affected by COVID-19.
“I got the second Moderna shot this morning. “
How is your microchip working ?
Mine is working flawlessly .
I just got my latest instructions on it from Fauci this morning.
I’m pleased with the performance .
Long term effect of the experimental MRNA jab unknown. Statistically, young folks are at more risk from the jab.
The chip in the first shot has been working for quite a while now.
Bill Gates speaks to me every once in a while. I’m trying to earn their trust so that I can take over the Minionsoft Network and bend those chips to my will.
Have they looked for disparities in covid infection rates between regularly vaccinated children and totally unvaccinated children?
I forgot to ask for a reverse polarity shot.
I was hoping that vaccinated women would feel a magnetic attraction to me.
Instead when I get too near, they are repulsed.
Bkmk
great news for me just got the tetanus when rough housing with my GSD running zigs etc..he nipped my calf so I decided to get a tetanus shot since the skin was broken.
I’m probably due for a tetanus shot
Yes they have. It’s one of the key factors in trying to figure it out
I dont remember what this study did but here is a study about one of the vaccines
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32987794/
You want to get the combo shot...not just Tetanus.
