Another study that didn't make it into the covid debate.

I think that anything that “wakes up” or strengthens the immune system will help be prepared for COVID-19 exposure. That includes pneumonia vaccine, tuberculosis vaccine, having the flu or a cold or getting COVID-19 vaccination.

I’m sure I’ve read that the cold is also caused by a type of corona virus. How does that work or not?

Everything dripping from your nose makes it hard to get in too.

Maybe instead of masks, we should protect others by dribbling all over them.

There are many viruses that can cause the cold, and many coronaviruses can cause the common cold.

What we call the common cold is caused by a half dozen different viruses, half of which are rhinoviruses and the other half corona viruses.

So even though Covid is a new to humans virus it’s not like the human race hasn’t danced to this tune before and doesn’t know the steps.

Pretty much anything will kill Covid except for the vaccines

you are correct, and there were papers -- back in spring of 2020 -- showing that it is the exposure to those other coronaviruses that creates immunity.

it is also correct that about 1/3 of common cold cases are causes by rhinoviruses (==flu viruses). Whether they can create immunity to COVIS is imho questionable--different creatures, really.

““There are hidden interactions between viruses that we don’t quite understand, and these findings are a piece of the puzzle we are just now looking at,” Foxman said.”

Not surprised. They haven’t cured the common cold either. It will be quite a while before they completely figure out covid-19.

I just knew it, that a snotty and runny nose has to be good for something.

Finally.

But there are 4 coronavirus cold viruses.
Is one better than the others.

A possibility I raised way back in Feb/Mar 2020, is whether giving everyone a coronavirus cold, would be a form of natural vaccination.

Glad to see someone finally tested the idea.

Yes, that’s a tuberculosis vaccine and certainly revs up the immune system.

I suspect governments know Covid-19 is a bio-weapon manufactured in a lab which is why they don't want to talk about the origins and why governments are concerned.

This bio-weapon was either accidentally or purposefully released. As a manufactured bio-weapon they don't know how it will act hence the panic by governments and heath care agencies.

I recall several years ago a young scientist discovered the rhinovirus could target certain cancer cells. The research looked extremely promising.

Then...crickets.

Excellent!

I’m in the middle of post nasal drip, croupy cough and still have my senses of smell & taste!

(and three tubes of Apple-flavored oatmeal with 1.87% Ivermectin under the bathroom sink)
