Viruses and other infectious organisms have been around since long before humans walked the planet. While many microorganisms are helpful and necessary for human survival and function, others bring disease and death. Immunity is what prevents humans from being wiped out by a particularly virulent bug.
The CDC defines immunity as “protection from an infectious disease. If you are immune to a disease, you can be exposed to it without becoming infected.”
How does one achieve immunity? As the CDC explains, there are two ways.
Natural immunity is acquired from exposure to the disease organism through infection with the actual disease.Vaccines have not been around forever, the first one being the smallpox vaccine invented in 1796. Since then, we have had many other vaccines including measles, mumps, hepatitis, and shingles. Yet we haven’t had efficacious vaccines for respiratory viruses, with the flu vaccine providing only about 50 percent effectiveness, depending on the season.Vaccine-induced immunity is acquired through the introduction of a killed or weakened form of the disease organism through vaccination.
Without natural immunity, many past viral illnesses, hundreds or thousands of years ago, would have been extinction events, except for the fact that those who were infected and survived now had immunity to that particular virus and perhaps similar future viruses. Such immunity might be passed along to children as well via the placenta or through nursing.
Yet today, any discussion of natural immunity is dismissed as some QAnon conspiracy theory, earning one derision or censorship from the same people or organizations who urge us to “follow the science,” but only their science. Why are we only to follow state-approved science and ignore any science that doesn’t fit the government narrative?

Natural immunity was taught in Jr. High School / early High School when I grew up. It appears it's not even being taught today.
So should I deliberately expose myself to the virus so I become immune?
Or get vaccinated So I am less immune?

Geez, the CDC can't even get THAT right. This statement is not true at all! If exposed to the virus, it can and/or will infect you. If you have natural immunity, your body will identify it upon infection or invasion and attack and kill it before it replicates and does damage to cells. This is basic 101 immunity.
Kinda makes you wonder what magic is in the Covid-19 ‘vaccine’, that makes authoritarian types so bloodthirsty about everyone getting the jab, the ‘science’ be damned.
Waiting for the democrat/media/big pharma/Faux-xi cheerleaders on here to say the death serum is perfectly safe and 98% effective.
You could get death jabbed to force your immune system to produce a deadly spike protein for one strain of something, and nothing else, thereby making your immune system basically useless.
Your choice.
My son and I were talking about this yesterday. He has done contract work in a hospital setting every working day since the pandemic started, including in covid patient rooms, he has been around people ill with covid in close quarters, he has taken care of sick friends, he has traveled, has gone to big group events like baseball games, has never worn a mask outside of work, and he’s not the greatest at hand washing, etc.
He never got sick. He may not have covid antibodies, but he definitely has been able to repel this virus.
Today his work is having a meeting with the “unvaxxed”, probably to announce a mandate. He is off today and will miss it (planned a month ago) but he is pretty furious about it.
Like the nurses, a year ago he was a hero. At one time he was the only person at his company still working. He got 2 promotions during this time because he busted his backside doing the work of several people being out. He said after all of that, and now they want to force him to take an experimental vaccine and potentially destroy whatever is working in his body to fight off the covid. Plus he’s mid 20s, his chance of dying of covid are almost nil. He’s an athlete so his chance of getting myocarditis is a real concern.
It baffles the mind. He’s standing up. Updated his resume and he’s already interviewing. He said his first question to interviewers is will the mandate the shot.

Because if 80% of the populace has already acquired immunity thru prior infection, that’s going to cut Pfizer’s profits on the covid vaccine by 80%.
Big pharma profits are how they get them to play along, the REAL reason is totalitarian control.
He never got sick. He may not have covid antibodies, but he definitely has been able to repel this virus.

Like your son, I am one of these people who, at least so far has been able to repel disease. We are the real naturally immune but even though I know my 77 year old immune system can’t be what it once was, I still trust it over any of these so called vaccines. There has to be lot of us out there but we are only labeled those who haven’t got it yet. We’ll maybe, maybe not.
I think people who’ve had the Fauci virus and recovered should have a super natural status. My daughter is one of those people and I told her I would disown her if she got anywhere near a needle. BTW I was around her when she had it and didn’t catch it.
Sorry folks. Wrong thread. That should have gone here: https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4001715/posts
