When the little flu virus started in 2020, I was scared. I was desperately searching for any news that my organism would be able to handle it.

Almost everyone was panicing, watching TV, news, waiting for the "serum" to get developed.

I want to say thank you to @Sheryl because at a time she (or he?) made a few comments here about the ability of the immune system to resist and, once recovered, *memorize* it so that it'd be able to recover easier, or won't fall ill, in all the subsequent times. And this kind information couldn't be found anywhere.

This was the single big relief for me at that moment. It was in march-april 2020.  Since then I stopped fearing it. stopped watching hands every 30 minutes, and stopped doing other idiotic rituals "for safety". Began eating garlic, onioun and other things instead of that -- instead of other bullshiт which was suggested in the news and everywhere.
 

(removed) other commentators on other sub-forums here. It was when I was commenting that I was ok and well despite, or perphaps because of, and  even had recovered without having taken those experimental serums, whilst asking those commentators back unconvient for them questions, making themselves second-guess themselves.

And i've died, 18 times, already, of course. Because I didn't abide to the  bullshiтtу "safety measures".

Nothing I have ever said in any way advocates being unimmunized for COVID.

 

Very much the opposite.

 

Not have I ever dismissed basic measures for prevention, such as hand washing or (in high risk situations, like very crowded gatherings and hospitals etc) masking. Again, much the opposite.

 

It is true that there is cellular immunity to COVID which lasts longer than antibody immunity. But to have this immunity, you must first either be fully immunized or have COVID. (In fact the combination of full immunization and then a subsequent COVID infection seem to give the best protection of all.)

 

Not everyone survives their first COVID infection. In fact millions of people did not.

 

There was a member of this board who allowed himself to be scared off vaccination. After several grueling months in an ICU he died of the severe lung damage his first COVID infection caused. That was just a few months ago.

 

 

 

 

I didn't understand the logic behind non-immunization.

 

For me, it was simple, the choice of dying from a vaccine (extremely low) vs dying from the disease (comparatively much, much higher).

 

The inconvenience of the occasional unpleasant side-effects of the vaccine were, to me, inconsequential, compared to the nasty effects of having the disease.

 

Vaccines have been used for many decades for many otherwise life-threatening diseases and have been proven effective time and time again, so, why on Earth not get this one?

Facepalm

I was rather hoping this topic would live up to its title, as Sheryl truly deserves recognition for the servcie she gives many.

 

So, to get it back on track.... Very much appreciate the advice you give on here, particularly the information on Doctors. You've helped me by private message once, but also times when you have given steers on the open forum to other members. I've seen 3 doctors you have steered me to, all 3 have been top notch.

It's easy to see why, and not surprising to see it would actually happen again...It's a dastardly deed what you're doing to one of our most respected forum members. Get off before moderator sweeps you off.

And one more... let's ban the OP again for trying to drag Sheryl into his conspiracy theories... ????

Yes thank you Sheryl for being one of the most considerate and informative posters on this forum.

I am sure many of the members appreciate the knowledge you have imparted over the years.
