Coronavirus immunity can start to fade away within weeks according to a new study which puts a 'nail in the coffin' in the idea of herd immunity

Two crossed lines that form an 'X'. It indicates a way to close an interaction, or dismiss a notification.Coronavirus immunity starts to fade away just weeks after people show symptoms, according to a new study by UK scientists.

"puts another nail in the coffin of the dangerous concept of herd immunity," according to one of its authors. However, the findings suggest that like a common cold, people can be re-infected by the coronavirus, even if they developed antibodies during their first infection. The study "puts another nail in the coffin of the dangerous concept of herd immunity," according to Professor Jonathan Heeney, a virologist at the University of Cambridge, and warned that deliberately trying to get infected in the name of so-called herd immunity created the risk of severe health damage in the future.

puratise Herd immunity is BS. I personally know someone young got and healthy on their second dose of COVID-19 and there’s more than you think.

Im getting tired of make it up is u go along about Covid. Fauci, CDC and WHO cant agree with each other on anything. Also, all Corona viruses mutate. Common flu and this flu. You gonna shut the world down every year? Grow up, wash your hands and get back to life.

You don't have to know much about science to know this is complete bs. The problem is most ppl intentionally stay ignorant and believe whatever is told to them.

Fear mongering by Business Insider. I’ll wait before buying into your crap any more.

what are T cells

This means that this chaos is the new reality, which I refuse to accept. We need to make the most of our situation and begin to make better solutions to this problem.

Where are the actual re-infected cases?

hblodget Zero deaths in NYC...🤔

Vaccines are based on immunity being developed. But immunity fades. Presumably the virus’ RNA will recombine or mutate. Does that mean we will be constantly chasing this thing in a vicious cycle. I am not an anti-vaccine person just asking an implication question.

Damn.

If that’s the case then there’s no point in a vaccine and it’s just something we’re gonna have to live with

Politicsinsider So, what you’re trying to say is that it would be prudent for everyone to wear a mask in public until an effective vaccine is available. Right?

And a nail in the coffin of a vaccine that lasts longer than weeks.

The joke is going too far ...

Fear mongering don’t even click on this article

Again, no one knows anything.
