Forget about herd immunity. Covid-19 vaccines and prior infection don’t provide lasting protection against infection and transmission, especially with the Omicron variant. That makes it impossible for enough of the population to become immune to stop the virus from spreading.
But don’t despair. Omicron will give much of the population what some scientists call “superimmunity”—stronger protection against new variants and even future coronaviruses. Normal life will be possible even as the virus continues to spread and mutate. Superimmunity won’t necessarily stop people from being infected or transmitting the virus. But most people who get infected, even with a more virulent variant, will experience mild or no symptoms.

opinion That's kinda what I was thinking. The first small pox inoculations were just exposing a person to a less severe variant of the virus. Omicron is less severe, and spreading like wildfire.
opinion It's why this vaccine coercion must end forthwith. Not everybody needs one ...
opinion 🇺🇸 You DO NOT have to DIE from COVID19 ➡️ Get Vaccinated ✅ 1st COVID19 Vaccine Shot ✅ 2nd COVD19 Vaccine Shot ✅ COVID19 Vaccine Booster Shot ✅ Flu Vaccine Shot ✅ Wear a Mask 😷 ✅ Wash Your Hands ✅ At-Home Test 🖥️ CDCgov WHCOVIDResponse
opinion In Germany natural immunity only lasts 3 months now
opinion Why does your opinion section print such ludicrous claims. Scientists have no idea. And there have been cases where some have caught omicron twice.
opinion The spins quite a faiytale on opinion: it should more correctly be labeled 'satire.' It is criminal that the title lacks the phrase 'wishful thinking,' so readers know not to take it seriously. It is not a competent analysis of the facts by a medical professional.
opinion DrEricDing would you like to have a rebuttal?
opinion Wow, a medical opinion from someone with no background in medicine or even the biological sciences. The has fallen to the ethical standards of a supermarket tabloid.
opinion I believe this will happen.
opinion Really bad article. We can't keep giving people false hope that the virus will kill itself off / become harmless. Super immunity is a joke when we already have a variant that destroys previous immunity protection & is able to reinfect those that had Omicron per South Africa Drs.
opinion The bug has only proven it will surprise every time.
opinion Omicron will give millions in the global population what some doctors call longcovid — unknown long term disabilities and even death associated with even mild cases.
opinion This is crazy wrong shit to put out there, knowing people will not read the article. “Once you’re vaccinated and then exposed to the virus, you’re probably going to be reasonably well-protected from future variants.” Dr. Curlin added”
opinion When they present a thesis, not as a thesis but as a given. This borders on fake news and is dangerous. There is no evidence for this assertion.
opinion Virologists don't even know for sure whether Omicron infection will provide protection against the next variant much less 'superimmunity'. This is a shockingly irresponsible opinion piece.
