It’s not that people are suddenly losing immunity, it’s that a variant emerged that’s resistant to the antibodies produced for earlier variants. We’re also seeing more reinfections with Delta than ever before. About 1 in 6,000 who previously had COVID-19 are becoming infected again with the Delta variant. Thankfully, those infections are typically much milder, but it’s not a lack of immunity. Nobody’s coming down with the April 2020 variant or the original Wuhan virus (which is what the vaccines targeted).

The Delta variant has key mutations in the spike proteins which changes their shape and makes earlier antibodies not fit as well. And those changes are also making it vastly more infectious overall by massively increasing the viral load within the respiratory tract. Delta is extremely good at infecting the cells in the respiratory tract; far better than any variant before it. Just being nearby someone who’s infected is plenty to give you a major dose of disease now.

Its great to have an alternate voice to the hysteria we sometimes see here on FR. That said, I cant help but wonder if you are a plant. And as much as I tend to agree with what you are saying, I am not sure I like you.

He/she is either a plant or a simpleton. Given the relatively recent sign up date and a name designed to ward off detractors, I bet the farm on a plant.

Folks like this are being used push to this diabolical plan to inject literally every person on this planet with whatever this ‘vaccine’ is. There’s no rational reason to push this on anybody but especially on children and those who already had covid now that we know even if you have the vaccine you can still spread the virus. But that is NEVER part of the discussion. That is the very simple truth that proves their objective is to eventually literally inject everybody with whatever this is. And don’t forget this virus WAS CREATED. And it was created for a reason and gee what a coincidence that it was inflicted on us just when Trump was showing the world how sinister governments are.
