But I’m not sure because I only read the first part of the paper that’s the basis for his or her speculations. The paper says SARS Cov, that is, the SARS virus that arose in Asia around 2003, produces antibodies that are highly cross reactive to SARS Cov 2. As such you’d think infection with SARS would provide protection against COVID 19. I believe I read SARS is only about 80% similar genetically to COVID 19. Bat viruses have been identified that are 96% similar to the COVID 19 virus. If SARS provides good protection against COVID 19, you’d darn sure think previous infection with COVID 19 and COVID 19 vaccines would provide protection against COVID variants which have arisen so far. And that’s borne out by hospitalization statistics for the vaccinated versus unvaccinated when you segment by age group.
Original Antigenic Sin is a Real and Very Serious Reason to Stop Vaccinating Everyone
In September, a small study conducted by researchers at the Erasmus Medical Centre in Rotterdam looked at the antibody response of 20 severely ill Corona patients admitted to the ICU, comparing their cases to 12 mild infections and 6 negative controls. They found that the immune response of the severely ill, unlike that of the mild patients, was dominated by IgG antibodies against ordinary seasonal coronaviruses. In other words, the most severely ill patients had fewer naive B cells imprinting on SARS-CoV-2, and more memory B cells producing antibodies against the somewhat similar common coronaviruses these patients had recovered from in the past. As the authors note, this is the phenomenon of Original Antigenic Sin. The immune systems of these severely ill patients were trained, by many years of exposure to the mild alpha- and betacoronaviruses that routinely infect humans, to send these same common coronavirus antibodies against SARS-2. These antibodies were ineffective against the new virus, and they inhibited a robust naive B-cell response.... Originally Posted by Why_Yes_I_Do

Origin of Covid — Following the Clues

The paper does indicate that IgG antibodies produced by the common cold aren’t particularly effective against the COVID 19 virus.
Again I just read the first part of the paper. Maybe I’m the idiot, as you’ve hypothesized several times before. Originally Posted by Tiny
Many more articles available on the topic for interested parties (antigenic sin). The nutshell of it all is that your body's immune system has a memory. Fairly long term at that. It detects, deciphers and reacts. The problem (this is why boosters-4-evah) is that it recognizes what it has stored in memory. So it is saying that if it sees it as SARS, it attacks it as SARS, even if it is SARS2 (that one paragraph you read).I don’t understand your reasoning. T cell response aside, if the common cold doesn’t generate antibodies that neutralize COVID 19, then the vaccine won’t neutralize a new variant? Is that what you’re saying? Wouldn’t it make more sense to say that having a COVID 19 infection, may, like the common cold, some day not provide protection against a new variant? But new vaccines, or GT as you put it, probably will. I’ve got no problem getting an annual coronavirus vaccine along with my flu shot if that’s what it comes to.
Let's relate it to the covid. The Gene Therapy (GT) created was likely tuned to the first iteration of the covid. (questionable) But then it mutated to whatever version du jour. If you never had the covid, then your body attempts to figure out how to react to the virus (latest greatest). If it remembers something that seems close, it goes with it's memory and launches an assault. Otherwise it gets jiggy with coming up with something.
Basically, if you do the virgin battle with an iterated (mutated) version you are rather covered for the previous versions as well. The biggest point to make is it still is a battle of your immune system against the bad actor(s). Regardless if you take the GT to create the spike protein, it is only to cause your immune system to engage, figure it out and ideally - declare victory. So if it's and old version of the bug; in theory, that is what you become protected from.
Therefore, thinking that the GT and boosters are curing or protecting you is in essence asinine folly - IMHO. Do try to recall that this bug-a-boo is super infectious on it's own accord. (Don't you remember parroting that repeatedly) Pumping up and priming your immune system is critical whether vaxxed or not.
It remains to be seen how long a GT spurred immunity lasts, though we do know that actual immunity does. However, I'm not keen to wait the 75 years to find out from the purveyors of the GT. Originally Posted by Why_Yes_I_Do

I was just talking to her to try to get to her attractive sister. I told her, honestly, that I had a friend named Chung Tran I wanted to fix her up with.
I know it may not be as fair a trade as you would like. But you see, I was in Juarez last week end and saw you with your gal-pal down there. At first I didn't recognize you without your goggles, mask and sporting a hat, but there was no mistaking your gal-pal.
So whadda ya say? Deal?!?
Sure would be a shame if this picture showed up in the mail to Alexandria...
With a can like that, you can be both socially distanced and close at the same time.... Originally Posted by Why_Yes_I_Do
