Until it is known that these antibodies produce immunity apart from proving prevalence I do not see the reason to celebrate. A good percentage of common colds are corona viruses. Does getting a cold render you immune?

Well, at least it isn’t as lethal as Covid-19.

Dr Farci put the damper on these yesterday. Said if you are positive for antibodies, then how long will that immunity last - 1 month, 3 months, 1 year etc.?
There is never going to be an end to this virus. The evil left is running the country into the ground.

Until it is known that these antibodies produce immunity apart from proving prevalence I do not see the reason to celebrate.I think the article addressed that point.
From the article:
It may not be perfect protection, Jerome said. It might be possible to get infected again, but if you did, you wouldnt end up in a hospital, OK? You might feel a little off, but then those antibodies pop right back up, take care of it, and youre better. So you get infected, but it doesnt really matter. Its more like a regular cold. Thats a very possible outcome.

Does getting a cold render you immune?Not usually. The cold viruses mutates often. That's why there isn't a vaccine for colds.
