Early on in the pandemic, because of its similarities researchers wanted to see if people that had gotten infected with, and recovered from SARS-Cov-1 still had any antibodies/natural immunity from the current SARS-Cov-2 strain. So they examined blood samples from some of these people and discovered that yes they did have antibodies/immunity from SARS-Cov-2. Now fast forward to the current situation with some of these variants of SARS-Cov-2 (ie Delta variant). According to a former Phizer VP and molecular biologist, these variants are no more than 0.3% different than the original strain. Said another way, its 99.7% similar. So, the next obvious question is: If someone that had SARS-Cov-1, which is 78% similar to the SARS-Cov-2, still retains natural immunity, then how can someone with a vaccine against SARS-Cov-2 not be protected from a variant that is 99.7% similar to the original strain??? That doesn’t make sense. Then the only question left to ask is: Why isn’t the vaccine protecting someone from a variant that is only 0.3% different?? My conclusion from that information is that this EUA vaccine is not performing the way it was intended. My conclusions are just that, mine. But you can read this information and form your own opinion.

I had read a few studies that claimed common cold coronavirus didn’t reduce infection rates, but did reduce severity of the study group. Seems pretty similar to what is happening to vaccine-induced reponse to the CV variants with the exception that the vaccines provide immunity, just at a lower rate.

But you wont hear that in the MSM because that doesn’t fit the narrative of getting a shot in every arm. All three of those medications/supplements you mention are proven safe over decades of studies. This vaccine hasn’t been proven safe in 1 year of studies. It only has EUA for those over 12 years of age. You do realize that the EUA would be revoked if there is a proven therapy that works as well as, or better than the vaccine???? Censorship is a real thing going on in the MSM right now. Hydroxychloroquin and Ivermectin are super cheap. Vaccines will bring in BILLIONS. Just follow the money.
