Researchers from the VIB-UGent Center for Medical Biotechnology in Ghent, Belgium, have found that antibodies extracted from a llama named Winter have neutralized the virus, including its variants, in laboratory testing.

" . . . have found that antibodies extracted from a llama named Winter have neutralized the virus, including its variants, in laboratory testing. The treatment would supplement vaccines . . . "

If the llama antibodies really prevent the Covid virus from taking hold, why are they still touting the vaccines?

There was a young gaucho named Bruno
Who said, “Screwing is one thing I do know.
A woman is fine,
And a sheep is divine,
But a llama is Numero Uno.

Goats are more plentiful. I have seen sick dogs, sick cats, sick chicken, sick cows. But never ever recall seeing a sick goat. And there were plenty of goats roaming around where I grew up. Goats can literally eat any vegetation. They are as hardy as a Abrams tank. I am sure goats have anti-bodies to kill any virus.
