Proceed with caution. The Biden Regime is intent on harming and killing Americans and they haven’t suddenly developed compassion for the immunocompromised.

hey Ransomnote

something you might find interesting - in a paper on a rare mutation found in about 0.5% European pop, TBK1 and TNFRSF13B mutations.. may cause an untuned IFN type I response,

and this paragraph, prednisolone vs methotrexate, something for people to discuss with their doctors:

“COVID-19 disease progression may have been exacerbated by the child’s preexisting unclassified autoinflammatory disease and treatment with prednisolone and methotrexate. A recent study analyzed 3729 patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases28, and found that the use of high dose glucocorticoids (≥10 mg/day; odds ratio (OR) 1.69) and high disease activity (OR 1.87) were associated with a higher probability of death secondary to COVID-19. In contrast, methotrexate monotherapy was associated with a lower probability of death compared to the absence of a disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD) treatment (OR 0.47). Therefore, the child’s prednisolone treatment (0.16 mg/kg per day) in particular may have promoted the severe COVID-19 disease course. However, the referenced study involved adult patients, and the issue of whether the findings can be generalized to pediatric populations remains unclear.
