I’m not aware that the adaptive immune system interferes with the innate response, but he may be referring to adaptive interference or “original antigenic sin”.
And scientists are well aware of it and and thinking about it. It’s been an ongoing issue with flu vaccines…hence the hunt for the “universal” vaccine.
But early studies show it’s not a problem with COVID vaccines…yet.
Can we get off this notion that if “the mainstream media isn’t focusing on it, that means there’s a conspiracy to cover it up”? Or “this means no one is paying attention to it”?
I will, however, say I am in favor of memory immune testing. It can be done and it is scalable.
I’m going to look into it myself before I get any booster.
And there is an approximate 98 % overall survival rate to the covid virus. Additionally, we know who the most vulnerable to the virus are and we can protect and treat them, while allowing Mother Nature’s natural immunity do its magic.
What is very, very suspicious, at least to me is, while the overall survival rate to covid is about 98%, and we know who the most vulnerable to the virus are and we can treat and protect them, why has our mainstream media been so intent on ignoring these factors and instead, generating mass hysteria and suggesting 24/7, “get the vaccine or die”?
It seems to me from the very beginning of the covid outbreak there has been a concerted effort by our mainstream media to encourage a course of action destructive, in many ways, to the general welfare of the United States rather than advocating a common sense approach avoiding a total undermining of America’s way of life.
What I’m seeing, in the big picture is, our mainstream media is constantly promoting actions destructive to the general welfare of the United States and her citizens [i.e., immigration policy; monetary policy; foreign policy; etc.] and its current handling of the Covid outbreak is just one more opportunity to help weaken and destroy America and subjugate the American people.

President Biden is giving aid and comfort to tens of thousands of Covid infected foreigners, who are invading our southern border
Most people who get COVID-19 will survive. Of roughly 35.2 million confirmed COVID-19 cases in the United States, around 614,300 people, or 1.7%, have died, according to Johns Hopkins University’s mortality data as of Aug 6.
.
Considering it is common knowledge that about 99% of those who get Covid survive, your comment raises the question if you are ignorant to facts, or, intentionally trying to cause confusion.
Well, for hypertensives Alpha blockers, which are rarely used, do tend to show benefit with COVID patients.
And Statins have always had an anti-inflammatory effect, more so with higher dosages. We can typically see dramatic reductions in C reactive Protein levels and metalloproteinase levels with higher doses regimens. And since the big problem with COVID is inflammation, you can certainly expect some benefit here as well.
Of course cases are on the rise . . . the vaccine is not preventing the fully vaccinated from still getting covid.
Breakthrough cases count for a large number of the rise in cases, e.g., in Massachusetts we find “More than 3,000 fully vaccinated people in Massachusetts tested positive for the coronavirus last week, a daily average of nearly 450 people in the Bay State as breakthrough infections keep rising amid the delta variant.”LINK
Now, getting back to the benefits of “natural immunity” one benefit is ”People who had COVID-19 had an 84% lower risk of becoming reinfected and a 93% lower risk of symptomatic infection during 7 months of follow-up, according to findings from a large, multicenter study published late last week in The Lancet.”
The article goes on to point out "the findings of the authors suggest that infection and the development of an antibody response provides protection similar to or even better than currently used SARS-CoV-2 vaccines.” See Previous COVID-19 may cut risk of reinfection 84%
Is it not common sense that those least likely to have complications from covid, if allowed to beat the virus on their own, would be a giant step forward in creating “herd immunity”?
Unfortunately, we are now finding that the covid vaccine may risk one’s natural immunity to covid.
