Landmark Study Vindicates Everyone Who Touted Natural Immunity to COVID-19
Red State. ^ | February 17, 2023 | Bonchie

We are going to need a new industry that simply spends its time fact-checking the so-called “fact-checkers.” That’s the story after a new landmark study published in The Lancet offered vindication to everyone who touted natural immunity to COVID-19 as an alternative to vaccination.

For years, the powers that be, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, the White House, and the press, dismissed the idea of taking natural immunity into account when debating vaccine mandates and vaccine passports.

They were wrong, so much so that even the mainstream media are having to admit it.

...

This study also puts to rest another common talking point, which is that natural immunity only came into play with Omicron. Yet, if you look at the longest lines on each of the above graphs (those represent natural immunity compared to various vaccine dosages), natural immunity provides the most durable protection against all variants.

The elites were wrong, and they destroyed countless lives in the process. Worse, they wanted to keep how wrong they were a secret. This kind of study could have been done two years ago to bring clarity to the situation. In fact, Israel did a similar study way back in 2021 that gave nearly the same results. It was ignored while the Biden administration and its press allies continued to push the need for vaccine mandates and vaccine passports.

How many people lost their jobs over that decision? How many people missed time with family members they’ll never get back because those family members died alone? How many people were booted out of the military for failing to get a vaccine they didn’t need? The number of horrible outcomes brought on by Biden, Fauci, and others refusing to acknowledge natural immunity is too long to list. The harm was immeasurable.

Yet, even in the midst of this news, the “experts” are doing their best to downplay it. Here’s a line within the NBC News report on the matter. The article also goes on to still plug getting boosters because it’s become a religious rite at this point.

Dr. Bob Wachter, the chairman of the department of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, said he did not expect the protection acquired from infection to be as robust as the meta-analysis found.

“The protection against severe infection, both the extent and the length of it at almost a year, is really surprisingly high,” said Wachter, who was not involved with the research.

These are the people who misled you for years. Their opinions should be dismissed with prejudice, and Americans shouldn’t forget who took their freedoms away based on non-existent data. The CDC had the ability and sample size available to stringently test natural immunity within the first eight to ten months of the pandemic. They didn’t do so because they didn’t want to do so. Keeping up the justification for Biden’s terrible policies (as well as many terrible state-level policies) took precedence. Hold them accountable.

If they hadn’t shut everything down...we would have reached herd immunity early on...the bug wouldn’t have evolved like it did after we opened everything up.

All the variants were created by the vaccines.

Drug company execs. need to be held accountable.

We might have reached herd immunity very early.

Didn’t you ever wonder about why we never heard anything about antibody studies being done to assess the spread of the new bug, if there really was a new one, through the population...

My bet is we reached herd immunity very early on.

Deep State knew this.

And kept the info secret.

Because CoupFlu policy has NEVER been about protecting public health.

It is safe to say that they were wrong about everything from the start and frankly, Trump was wrong as well. He relinquished his presidency to Fauci and we are still paying for it.

Not only is natural immunity much greater than the vaxes, the risks of adverse reaction to the vax is much higher if you have already had Covid -19.

And yet they tried to mandate the vax.

Rep. James Clyburn was caught on camera openly stating that Democrats needed to use Covid -19 to further their agenda.

Now we just have to figure out what that agenda is

Here’s the most stupid sentence, which I’ve heard several people repeat to me over the last year and a half....

.....”I had to get the vax to protect my elderly parents”

Even someone like me, who got lousy grades in science class, knows that a vaccine is not like a hippie commune or a food coop, where everybody pitches in collectively.

If your elderly parents got the vaccine, then they should be protected...if it works.

Every person with immunology 999 knows natural, multi antigenic immunity to any virus is exponentially superior to a limited vaccine.
Immunology maxim…. What doesn’t kill me only makes me more immune.
Okay, so it’s only my immunology maxim, because big pharma trillions buys a bigger megaphone.
Dr Tennpenny did a great primer on this on Diamond and silk.

This is entirely consistent w/ my wife’s experience w/ the WooFloo. She travels overseas regularly. In Dec 2019, she came down w/ a violent flu, unlike anything she had had before. (I didn’t get it, but I rarely do). Then she went back to SE Asia in Feb, barely getting back in early March as the shutdown hit. We were sure she’d have picked up the Woo, but had nothing. A couple weeks later, she complained about not being able to taste her food. Okay, we thought, here it comes. That went away a day or two later.

Clearly she had immunity and her body managed to knock out a second exposure with minimal effects. We both got the Omnicon late the following year, but I’m guessing that’s precisely bc we got jabbed — her to be able to fly internationally and me to be able to take care of my parents. I wouldn’t know one way or another, but I’m convinced the vax left us susceptible to the Omnicron. She got the Moderna (which immediately, nearly detached a retina) and I got the J&J. We’ve gotten no boosters, thank the Lord, as her original vax allows her entrance to countries that still require it, as many still do.

It’s all a total, deliberate, FUBAR lie.

He relinquished his presidency to Fauci and we are still paying for it.

I have to agree with you. He underestimated the swamp, the medical industrial complex just waiting for some sort of medical emergency to pounce on and flex their muscles, and the power of the propagandist media. His being a germaphobe was an Achilles heel for him as well.

But I cannot blame him unjustly due to all of the great work he did in less than 4 years. He was mostly alone in his tasks with everyone out to get him.

I agree that the biggest spreaders of follow on variants probably were the vaccinated. The problem now is that natural immunity and/or “vaccines” don’t offer much protection from the newest variants.

Live and work while isolating the vulnerable isn’t such a wacky idea after all? Shocking!

Agree on the wise and prudent course would have been to protect the vulnerable and otherwise “keep calm and carry on”.

That said, doctors I interacted with were all in on natural immunity even back then. I got a nasty case of Covid very early on in February of 2020 (a woman who had just travelled from NYC coughed all over me and another lady in a hallway and we both caught it from her). When the vaccines became available, I worried side effects might hinder my caring for my elderly Dad and asked his doctors’ advice. They assured me my natural immunity was good. I was relieved.

Okay, now THAT said, my natural immunity to the original Covid did not prevent my catching the Omicron variant — but it was nothing compared to the original Covid.
