Good news: Mild COVID-19 induces lasting antibody protection
Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis ^ | 05/24/2021 | Tamara Bhandari

Months after recovering from mild cases of COVID-19, people still have immune cells in their body pumping out antibodies against the virus that causes COVID-19, according to a study from researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. Such cells could persist for a lifetime, churning out antibodies all the while.

The findings, published May 24 in the journal Nature, suggest that mild cases of COVID-19 leave those infected with lasting antibody protection and that repeated bouts of illness are likely to be uncommon.

I think COViD twice about 1 year apart. I have never been tested for anti bodies. The second “bout” was shorter and easier to get over for sure.

The advantage is that as the virus is encountered in everyday life, the immune system keeps getting a booster for fighting it, so to speak.

Whoops!

“Given the media’s bias I’ve been impressed that they aren’t covering *up* the benefit of “natural” immunity.”

I think the scientists are so open about it that the media just can’t get away with covering it UP.

It’s astounding how all knowledge of immunological science is forgotten or not believed or understood vis a vis Wuhan flu and the “pandemic”’.

Of course a mild case will be associated with strong immunity - it’s mild because the immune system addressed the infection strongly.

One would expect mild cases to have the best immunity because if your immunity was doing well you’d get sicker.

If someone tests positive for antibodies, where can they get an antibody card?

Don’t know, I guess the report of the test would do.

What is mostly wanted though is antigen test results which show if you’re currently, or recently, sick.
They’re cheap and easy but won’t tell if you were infected over a month or so ago.

Everyone that i know that had covid and the vax had much worse side effects including one myocarditis in one mid 30s. But she is just a meanigless statistic to the needle kneelers.

The FR VPs will be greatly saddened to see a UNIVERSITY now backing what we’ve been saying, for weeks/months.

Wow, I literally just got a text from my buddy, I copied it below

“One of my friends got Myopericarditis from his 2nd shot”

Btw, same age group as you, mid 30’s

This is GREAT NEWS!

All of this is great because there will be no way to impose anything on those with natural immunity.

An effort to do so will be met with science and lawsuits.

Agree with you, but just wanta say: “Get tested.”

Lots of people think “Well, I felt bad- so I had covid.”
That may not be true.
Don’t know how you can get an antibody test now- an antigen test won’t do.

Maybe ask your doc for one.
