Responding to Mr. MTGoat:

For shorty and bajamom:

https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseas...

That was literally 10 seconds of googling to find summary of studies re natural vs vaccine immunity.

[/rquote]

I hear what you are saying, and I read the article. As with my other research, there is very little evidence of getting a second covid infection if you have already been infected - all documented cases of re-infection are potentially infections that reappeared because the virus was never fully cleared. Your article says immunity/protection after infection is increased by a vaccination, however it does not mention much about data on re-infection. THAT is what I was searching for and did not find. But please, I would love to read some stats and facts about re-infections.

Edited: I did find this article - first one with any information. But of course they do make em big in MN, not the healthiest population. https://www.health.state.mn.us/news/pressrel/2021/mediaadv11...

Talk of banning the unvaccinated from commercial air travel. Sounds like a good idea! Need to persuade the nincompoops to get the vaccine, every little incentive helps!

As much as you want Fauci to control every part of your life this one isn't happening. The US public is at its breaking point with Biden and he knows it.

They have already rolled back the quarantine time from 10 to 5 days (funny how the so-called "science" changes).

To your dismay, Covid is coming to an end after Omicron blows through, and you'll finally have to come out of the basement.

All you'll have left is your ability to call every non-woke person a racist.

Ivermectin for COVID-19: real-time meta analysis of 71 studies

https://ivmmeta.com

•Statistically significant improvements are seen for mortality, ventilation, ICU admission, hospitalization, recovery, cases, and viral clearance. All remain significant after exclusions. 47 studies from 43 independent teams in 19 different countries show statistically significant improvements in isolation (36 primary outcome, 33 most serious outcome).

•Meta analysis using the most serious outcome shows 66% [53‑76%] and 83% [74‑89%] improvement for early treatment and prophylaxis, with similar results after exclusion based sensitivity analysis (excluding all GMK/BBC team studies), for primary outcomes, for peer-reviewed studies, and for RCTs.

•Results are very robust — in worst case exclusion sensitivity analysis 57 of 71 studies must be excluded to avoid finding statistically significant efficacy.

•While many treatments have some level of efficacy, they do not replace vaccines and other measures to avoid infection. Only 25% of ivermectin studies show zero events in the treatment arm.
•Multiple treatments are typically used in combination, which may be significantly more effective.

•Elimination of COVID-19 is a race against viral evolution. No treatment, vaccine, or intervention is 100% available and effective for all variants. All practical, effective, and safe means should be used, including treatments, as supported by Pfizer [Pfizer, TrialSiteNews]. Denying the efficacy of treatments increases the risk of COVID-19 becoming endemic; and increases mortality, morbidity, and collateral damage.

Looks like the science is in...get vaccinated even if you have already been infected. When I read the NYT covid stats, it amazes me how many of those who are sick, hospitalized and dead are unvaccinated.

Extreme cold spell reducing travel on West Coast seems to have had a positive effect on spread of Omicron virus and increased hospitalizations remain under expectations. Isolation periods if testing positive also reduced.
Happier New Year ahead.

More encouraging news on Omicron out of South Africa, small study indicates Omicron exposure may reduce risk to Delta:

https://www.livemint.com/science/health/omicron-may-reduce-d...

"Infection with the omicron coronavirus variant can also strengthen immunity against the earlier Delta strain, reducing the risk of severe disease, according to a paper released by South African scientists"
While omicron has been shown to be highly transmissible and can evade some antibodies, after two weeks of getting symptoms immunity to subsequent infections from the strain rose 14-fold, according to the authors led by Alex Sigal and Khadija Khan of the Durban, South Africa-based Africa Health Research Institute. A smaller improvement was found against delta, they said. "

Weakened strains have been used to create traditional vaccines (Polio) in the past:

https://www.uu.nl/en/news/using-weakened-coronavirus-strains...

Linking virus genetic material to symptoms

Where the discovery of a weakened polio virus was a fortunate accident, current technologies make it possible to deliberately search for an attenuated strain. As far as the scientists know, only part of the pathogen’s genetic material has been examined so far, and those genes have not been linked to the patients’ pathologies. They therefore recommend identifying the genome of the virus variants in patients who show only mild symptoms. The weaker viruses found in this way can then be attenuated further (if necessary) and used for the production of vaccines.

Research into suitable milder variants should mainly focus on infections among risk groups. If the patients have managed to survive the infection without major problems, and if the divergent signature of the virus can be identified, then the next step towards a possible vaccine is simply one of technology and careful testing. The virus can then provide its own vaccine, as was the case with polio. Deliberately infecting people with a mild variant stops the advance of the harmful virus strains by means of a ‘scorched earth’ strategy and helps to build group immunity. The limited risks of working with an attenuated virus will require careful monitoring, however, as is currently the case with the vaccines for mumps, measles and rubella.

JDCanuck, thank you for the objective and polite approach to this discussion--and for noting the recent and potentially positive news. Hopefully things do get better in the new year, for all.

I've heard of 7 cases here in Bahia Asuncion. Vizcaino is supposed to be very bad...who knows. Sounds like schools are going back to virtual and there will be some restrictions in the near future.

South Africa Omicron total cases, case fatality and hospitalization rates plummet after Omicron, UK now on similar path, hospitalization rates far lower, average time in hospital drops to 3 days from 8.8 for Delta in UK.

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/9c78befe-68ea-11ec-b36e-1...

It comes after a former head of Britain’s Vaccine Taskforce said the UK’s use of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine may be one of the reasons why the nation is not recording as many deaths as other European countries. Dr Clive Dix said it was possible that the RNA in Pfizer and Moderna’s vaccines did not last as long in the body.

Friends in Los Planes, say holiday gatherings has half the town with covid. La Ribera has similar reports. I hope it's not the case, but the rumor is we are heading for another shut down by the middle of the month.
