Children who contract a mild case of Covid-19 may not develop antibodies to the virus afterwards, a study from Australia suggests.

Only 37% of children appeared to develop antibodies, compared to 76% of adults – even though viral loads were similar in the two groups, researchers found.

“Whether this also happens for the current circulating variant requires further investigation, as well as studies to understand why children are less likely to produce antibody responses following SARS-CoV-2 infection,” Licciardi said.Experimental oral Covid-19 vaccine shows promise in monkeys “Not only would an oral Covid-19 vaccine be more convenient and acceptable... but it might also lead to better immunity because it is being administered to the site where the Covid-19 virus typically comes into the body,” he added.

That just doesnt make sense. Using fear to promote vaccine is inhumane. Look at Israel with 100% vaccinated... its not working. Natural immunity is still the best, people who have had covid have antibodies, our bodies are created that way. Also our children aren't monkeys

One decision changed my life! I decided to act on faith instead of fear. I'm now reaping the reward of that bold step and making more money than I could ever imagine. I highly recommend you to trade your bitcoin with Robert_BAR1

I know I know we all probably must have heard about Bitcoin but don't know how it works, I tried it in a week ago by a man who recommended me to Randy_Jones32 on Twitter he guides me through and i made a return of $10500 after a week of trading, connect with him

I suppose the money had to first be infected with the virus right? Who gave mankind a right to treat others like this? Much is going to be demanded soon!

I was introduced into his platform by a friend I met online Dennismayson9. I thought it was a scam company as well.... But I was moved to try once again with Dennismayson9 I just wanna share this with my people, it was a WIN and i am GREATFUL.🙏🙏🙏🙏 GRATITUDES.

Covid-19: 453 new cases, 50 deaths recorded in SA in 24 hoursThere were 453 new Covid-19 cases reported in the past 24 hours, the NICD said on Tuesday. This pic is incomplete. Very biased reporting used to coerce or manipulate. Where is the background in this picture!? What's the overall death toll in 24hrs? Good, unbiased & balanced reporting is what's lacking in S.A. journalism. The media is always used to push a narrative. Hello I come back Here we go again...Obviously we also have to sync our covid waves with the UK.
