Common cold exposure may provide protection against COVID-19

So getting one form of the common cold might protect you from getting another form of the common cold? What a concept!

"Oops, I mean, 'It's just a cold, Jim!'"

Two years of lockdowns, social distancing, excessive use of sanitizers. Basically a sizable portion of the country has trashed their natural immunity to minor viruses. Just talked with my doctor last week about that. The less exposure you have to people the lower your natural resistance to everything in your environment. I have not stayed in and nor have I worn a mask for the last two years I shop at the grocery store at least 3 times a week because I work at home and it gives me a chance to get it out. I don’t know how much that is going to help protect me, but it’s definitely better than someone who has totally isolated themselves.

My doctor said he rarely get sick because he’s constantly exposed to so many people.

As a friend of mine calls it, the Howard Hughes syndrome. It has run amok and we’re just beginning to pay the price for that. What really concerns me is the number of children that have had so little exposure to other children they’re not developing any of the natural immunity that we did as kids. And I don’t know if they’re ever going to be able to play catch-up.
