    You simply are not able to leave an objective fact alone. We are on the way to natural immunity ATM. As long as we don't have a vaccine. Period! This is not advocating anything. It's just a sentence like: A ripe banana is yellow.

    Instead of you involve me as person, you assign some political attributes to me and then you vehemently go against them....
    And what has profit to do all about that..if not making money with vaccinations?

    Please keep your idea of my person out here...
    I have presented scientific work that suggest pre-immunity. And it is just a rational conclusion (what I think) that we'll reach herd immunity before we'll get a safe vaccine at all.

    It is a personal evaluation and not what I 'advocate' or want!

    There will be a day where you have to decide if you want to get vaccinated when available at the public. And there will be a day (far later) you have to make the decision for your kids as well. (I do not expect approval for kids anytime soon after approval for 'adults').

    Then you can 'sign' against natural herd immunity. But until then we all are on that natural train.

    @Yen: you just can not, for the life of you, understand the ABC of this problem - HOW MANY LIVES AND/OR HUMAN WELL-BEING (= BAD HEALTH) WILL THIS COST, IF YOUR "UNDERSTANDING" BECOMES PUBLIC HEALTH POLICY?!?

    Behind the numbers are Human Beings, their lives, their health, their destinies and your "Public Health Policy" would adversely affect countless people! In fact, this is what is going on in most places!!!

    BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE LIKE THAT!!! As we can see quite clearly, from some of my posts!!!

    So, YOU ARE NOT "OBJECTIVE"!!!!

    hey bro you look kinda silly with those rolling eyes. roflao
    What do you mean?

    You do that almost every post I do lately.

    Understand, not everybody thinks or have the same opinions about anything in life. It's good to vent your concerns so you don't explode at night in your bed...

    I try to post it from another perspective...maybe you can get me 'better' now.

    What if there won't be a vaccine that is able to protect humans 100%? (And reading the scientific works I also posted here makes me assuming that). Besides of that not everybody wants to get vaccinated.

    I expect one that comes with its own 'statistics'. Means something like: It creates an antibody level of X which is able to absorb a special amount of viral load Y at the first month after vaccination. This level X is decreasing soon to X2. By that the body can absorb a far lesser amount of viral load. And so on... And the vaccine has an own statistic of probable side effects Z.

    The next conclusion is: If you get a viral load that does exceed you current capacity of anti-body you get sick either way. You probably (at best) get a nearly 100% protection because the initial amount of anti-body is that high that a 'common' viral load will be easily absorbed completely. But that relationship is always changing to less protective abilities.

    The 'other thing' that happens is that people get sick by COVID-19. By that 'the second instance' the t cells get involved. And thank god they have a long time memory and they have learned already. (Without that fact COVID-19 would be really really dangerous)!

    As final conclusion a potential vaccination just adds another countermeasure with own statistics to delay reaching natural herd immunity and nation by nation has its own factor of delay depending on applied measures and available vaccines and their potential.

    Since the applied restrictions always come with huge impact on economy we cannot afford to repeat the same amount of restrictions all the time.

    The pandemic on its way will probably attract attention by peaks from time to time until it naturally vanishes in the background. But a 'vaccination day' would not determine its end.

    What makes you sure that this evaluation is wrong?

    (As being said. I do not advocate a health policy I try to evaluate)...

    No, Yen, we do not function on "what if we can't" - that defeatism never led anywhere good!!! We are not animals, we are Human Beings, with creativity, imagination, Science, Technology, Politics, Ethics and so on....

    Covid-19 may cause sudden and permanent hearing loss, experts have found, adding that such problems need early detection and urgent treatment.

    The coronavirus has been found to affect the body in myriad ways, from a loss of taste and smell to organ damage.

    Now doctors have reported fresh evidence that Covid could also affect hearing.

    Writing in the journal BMJ Case Reports, experts at University College London report the case of a 45-year-old man with asthma who was admitted to intensive care with Covid, ventilated, and given drugs including the antiviral remdesivir and intravenous steroids.

    A week after leaving intensive care he developed a ringing sound – tinnitus – and then hearing loss in his left ear.

    The team say none of the medications the man was given would be expected to cause damage to his hearing, while he had no problems with his ear canals or ear drums. Further investigation showed no sign of autoimmune problems, while he did not have flu or HIV – conditions previously linked to hearing loss. What’s more, the man had never had hearing problems before.

    Subsequent tests revealed the man had sensorineural hearing loss in his left ear – a situation where the inner ear or the nerve responsible for sound is inflamed or damaged. This was treated with steroids with partial success.

    The case is the first such incident to be reported in the UK, although a small number of similar reports have emerged from other countries.

    Dr Stefania Koumpa, a co-author of the study, said it is not yet known how Covid might cause hearing loss, but there are possible explanations.

    “It is possible that the Sars-Cov-2 virus enters inner ear cells and brings about cell death, and/or causes the body to release inflammatory chemicals called cytokines that can be toxic to the inner ear,” she said. “Steroids likely help by reducing inflammation and therefore production of cytokines.”

    Figure it out, Yen....

    I have asthma - plus I already have tinnitus :p - I am a bit overweight... I have 2 young kids who need me.

    Wanna play dice, wanna play Russian roulette with my life with your policies?

    And when it gets worse we come to a point where we cant afford to keep ill people like you alive anymore because your an unafordable cost factor and you take up health service capacity thats needed for essential workers and you cant expect the rest of us to put ourselves at risk by crippling our health systems and economy by keeping all ill people like you alive ? IF it goes on it will come to a point where ill people and old people will be asked to do their duty to the planet and volunteer for euthenasia ........ to take trhe strress offf and protect the rest of us ........ and only realy evil , arogant egoists will refuse to do their patriotic duty ......... and if we cant get enough decent people to do whats right we can still round them up and give them a neck shot .

    BUT ...... anyway ........ i dont understand ? ........ IF 3000 people a day have to die why dont we just round up 3000 useless people every day and give them a neck shot and voila !!! Problem solved and 3000 inocent and usefull people will survive !!!

    :)

    No, of course not.
    But can it be that you are (a bit) focused on negative reports about COVID-19? :p

    Well....I don't have something that I'd consider as pre-illness... no overweight--- my BMI is 22.8.....:p .... OK I do smoke from time to time....:D

    Anyway I try to post positive works. And when I post works about seroprevalence I do not want to propagate herd-immunity. Just saying we are closer to than we thought.

    Can it get any more "negative" than REAL REPORTS on long Covid or even deaths due to Covid? Ach, these doctors writing obit... sorry, medical reports of... well seriously sick or even dead people.... Just focusing on "negativity" - they should be banned, really.... At least from the media - I mean, how dare they scare the population from going to.... makes us some profits, eh? Well, I never...

    Oh, sorry, what you REALLY mean is we SHOULD PLAY RUSSIAN ROULETTE with our lives by "focusing on rosy Covid stories"?!?!?!?!?!? Well, that's a novel idea, Dr. Yen - always look on the bright side of death.... and f*&% "Do no harm", naturally....

    In fact, as one explains neatly above: it is our patriotic duty not to be a nuisance and die, so others could live the same way as before and NOT having to contribute, as solidarity is soooo passeeeee....

    The lovely eugenics people, such a brilliant club of dearies...
