New Research Finds Most People Are Naturally Armed Against the COVID-19 Coronavirus..

The majority of the population can produce neutralizing antibodies against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in severe cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), according to a study published today (February 11, 2021) in the open-access journal PLOS Pathogens by Michael Mor of Tel Aviv University, and colleagues. Moreover, the results support the use of combination antibody therapy to prevent and treat COVID-19.


The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by SARS-CoV-2, has had a profound impact on global public health. Neutralizing antibodies that specifically target the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein are thought to be essential for controlling the virus. RBD-specific neutralizing antibodies have been detected in convalescent patients – those who have recovered from COVID-19. Some of the recoverees tend to have robust and long-lasting immunity, while others display a waning of their neutralizing antibodies. The factors associated with an effective, durable antibody response are still unclear.



To address this gap in knowledge, Mor and colleagues used molecular and bioinformatics techniques to compare B-cell responses in eight patients with severe COVID-19 and 10 individuals with mild symptoms, 1.5 months after infection. Very ill patients showed higher concentrations of RBD-specific antibodies and increased B-cell expansion. Among 22 antibodies cloned from two of these patients, six exhibited potent neutralization against SARS-CoV-2.




Bioinformatics analysis suggests that most people would be capable of readily producing neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in severe cases of COVID-19. Moreover, combinations of different types of neutralizing antibodies completely blocked the live virus from spreading. According to the authors, these antibody $#@!tails can be further tested in clinical settings as a useful means to prevent and treat COVID-19.....snip~

Oh noes.....this would put a major dent in the Democrats Playbook with the Wuhu.

We have seen up to 80% have T-cell immunity. Likely because COVID is a coronavirus. Our bodies have experience with that.

Joey must have got word about this. Yesterday he was talking about herd immunity after he lied about the vaccine he received from Trump Team.

Experts say Herd Immunity by April.

Oh ….wait, what?
Via WSJ:

Amid the dire Covid warnings, one crucial fact has been largely ignored: Cases are down 77% over the past six weeks. If a medication slashed cases by 77%, we’d call it a miracle pill. Why is the number of cases plummeting much faster than experts predicted


In large part because natural immunity from prior infection is far more common than can be measured by testing. Testing has been capturing only from 10% to 25% of infections, depending on when during the pandemic someone got the virus. Applying a time-weighted case capture average of 1 in 6.5 to the cumulative 28 million confirmed cases would mean about 55% of Americans have natural immunity.

Now we have Bidens new CDC Director saying its time to double down on Masks and Covid Restrictions. Due to the new Strains of the Wuhu.


Told ya's.....wouldnt take long for the Deviates to find excuses to get their power trip off.

[Calypso Jones]

Their time is comin'.

[MMC]

Their time is comin'.

Its already started.....Republican states are removing mask mandates, lockdown restrictions and social distancing. Basically telling Resident Joe to $#@! off.

I do believe that certain people are more susceptible to getting COVID but at the same time I cannot explain why it rips through some groups.

Shagging (beach dance) is big in our area. Thy had a winter event before Christmas and out of less than 100 people 22 were reported to have died where almost the entire group got COVID. Now these groups tend to be older but... and then I had a friend who had one relative that brought it to Thanksgiving and everyone at the meal got COVID. They were all younger and were okay with mild symptoms. I know of others where basically everyone got COVID at certain events but then others where no one or very little spread was seen.

These random events make me wonder if there is a specific point where it is highly contagious and it certainly would seem to be before symptoms show up.

I know this is anecdotal but I can't help to think it is not just random probability.
