The Power of Natural Immunity
The Wall Street Journal ^ | June 8, 2021 | Marty Makary

Posted on 08/03/2021 2:45:27 PM PDT by packagingguy

Only around 10% of Americans have had confirmed positive Covid tests, but four to six times as many have likely had the infection. A February study in Nature used antibody screenings in late summer 2020 to estimate there had been seven times as many actual cases as confirmed cases. A similar study, by the University of Albany and New York State Department of Health, revealed that by the end of March 2020—the first month of New York’s pandemic—23% of the city’s population had antibodies. That share necessarily increased as the pandemic spread.

Here is a proven prtocol:
Over the counter prevention:

Elemental Zinc 25 mg once a day

Vitamin D 4000 iu once a day

Vitamin C 1000 mg once a day

Quercetin 500 mg once a day

If Quercetin is unavailable, then use Epigallocatechin-gallate (EGCG) 400mg once a day

If one is to lazy to research and question, just go out and get the jab, but remember, there is always consequences for taking the lazy way out.

You are saying the exact thing I read on one author’s blog last night. Wish I could recall the website but found it on a link from FR. Essentially the elites cook up madness which runs through society, then isolate individuals from each other (lockdowns) until most people return to a child-like state and seek the comfort of the elite’s womb.

The elites, unable to manage everything since it is impossible to know everything, ultimately fail.

I asked the question because I am highly suspicious of our leaders’ motivations. There are too many “coincidences” that just so happen to always favor our politicians and oligarchs.

I had it in March 2020 before anyone was testing in AZ outside of hospitals. I haven’t had the antibody test so I can’t prove it, but my symptoms were the quintessential low grade fever, annoying dry cough, extreme fatigue, headache & muscle aches. I haven’t been sick since then, even though I was maskless until July 2020. If I didn’t have it in March, then I also never got it afterwards, even though I was exposed to my daughter and her family the day before they came down with Covid.

So a few weeks ago my former employer relaxed their mask policy for vaccinated folks only. Everyone else had to continue to wear masks. I have acquired immunity and refused the mask and was consequently let go.

Yesterday they went back to everyone being required to mask up once again.

The vaccinated are now furious after tasting a few weeks of freedom and having to go back to communist cuba all over again.

In the meantime I'm soooooo enjoying my freedom and some dearly precious and needed time off.

Im so done with all this covid nonsense and the entire world can kma.

Antibodies to any disease fade with time. What you want is memory of the virus in your immune system. Here is a test cleared by the FDA:

There are several labs here in the ‘hood where I live that can perform this test. If you are in a more civilized area I am sure you can find a lab close by.

Most of my family had Covid at the end of December of last year. In May, I tested positive for antibodies. Another member of my family had tested positive for antibodies, but just recently tested negative. So, he was pretty much forced to get the shot to keep his job. I’m going to donate blood soon to see if I still test positive. Even if I don’t test positive for antibodies, I’m not getting the vaccine.

If you donate blood, they test you for antibodies, and it doesn’t cost you anything but a pint of blood. :-)

The 2nd amendment used to be the power of natural immunity.

“Another member of my family had tested positive for antibodies, but just recently tested negative.”

Even after antibodies fade you should still have T cells that last much longer. Maybe forever. If I understand how T cells function, they kill cells that are infected with the virus. This could provide long lasting natural immunity.

T cells last even longer than antibodies. With any luck you have natural immunity that will protect you from new variants as well.

Well, I’m putting my money where my mouth is on this. I uploaded a fake to my employers HR system to ‘prove’ I’m vaccinated. What exactly are they going to check that against?

Their answer: they aren’t. There is no way an employer can. It’s an honor system. My employer has 30,000+ employees. If we have that problem with all the financial and legal resources we have, imagine the issues mid to small sized companies do. Family owned businesses too.

Link to a blank card image.

You can google "vaccination cards" and look at a ton of images out there showing they're all filled out differently and there are no standards by which they're being completed.

All I did was find one with the information filled out like THIS and then scribbled in some jibberish under the "healthcare professional / clinic" site so it was unreadable.

Go look at all the vaccine card images and see for yourself: there is NO standard by which they're completed, they're completely useless because of that. Tracking? BWAHAHAHAHAHA! There's a term we IT Professionals have had since way, way, way back in the early 1980's when I was coming up the ranks: GIGO (Garbage In/Garbage Out.)

And that's why any database with vaccine card info. in it would be worthless.

Contract worker for California department of public health called me and asked if I was vaccinated or wanted to make an appointment to get vaccinated. I told them it was none of their business! Apparently they got a lot of similar or worse responses.

They don’t fade THAT fast. I never got the chickenpox again 30 years later when my kids did!
