STORY AT-A-GLANCE

• Evidence from Washington University School of Medicine shows long-lasting immunity to COVID-19 exists in those who’ve recovered from the natural infection
• At both seven months and 11 months after infection, most of the participants had bone marrow plasma cells (BMPCs) that secreted antibodies specific for the spike protein encoded by SARS-CoV-2
• The BMPCs were found in amounts similar to those found in people who had been vaccinated against tetanus or diphtheria, which are considered to provide long-lasting immunity
• The antibody protection gained in those who’ve recovered from COVID-19 is likely to continue “indefinitely”
• Vaccination may be more dangerous for those who’ve had COVID-19, as the immune response reactivated by the COVID-19 vaccine may trigger inflammation in tissues where the viral antigens are present
• The benefits of experimental COVID-19 vaccination may not outweigh the risks, especially if you’ve already had COVID-19

If you’ve had COVID-19, even a mild case, major congratulations to you as you’ve more than likely got long-term immunity, according to a team of researchers from Washington University School of Medicine.¹ In fact, you’re likely to be immune for life, as is the case with recovery from many infectious agents — once you’ve had the disease and recovered, you’re immune, most likely for life.

The evidence is strong and promising, and should be welcome and comforting news to a public that has spent the last year in a panic over SARS-CoV-2. Big surprise (not) that this message is not being shared by our public health authorities! The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) — the foremost agency tasked with protecting Americans’ health and safety — refuses to get the word out.

"Natural formed by exposure is usually longer lasting than a vaccine."

Usually is the operative word here. Folks that had the Spanish Flu back in the early 1900s had the antibodies present when in their 90s before death of natural causes. There are stats too back this up. I had the virus, am fully recovered, and am good to go. No jab for me.

Yep, and still they recommend those who recovered from covid to still get vaccinated.

Follow the money.
