" Median age was 60 years (range 18-96). Patients with critical disease (n=106) had significantly lower levels of anti-HCoV OC43 nucleocapsid protein (NP)-specific antibodies compared to other COVID-19 inpatients (p=0.007). In multivariate analysis (adjusted for age, sex and BMI), OC43 negative inpatients had an increased risk of critical disease (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 2.68 [95% CI 1.09 - 7.05]), higher than the risk by increased age or BMI, and lower than the risk by male sex.
Oops.
There goes the whole game folks.
Get a cold, don't get killed by Covid-19.
Why not give people colds? It's not like we're scared of those, right?
And as I noted a week or so prior the protection resides in the nucleocapsid recognition, not the spike, so all of the existing "Warp Speed" vaccines are pointed at 100% of the wrong thing.
Why not just get deliberately inoculated with OC43 -- and sneeze?
Now we know, and we also know why kids don't get seriously sick -- those other four coronaviruses circulate all the time and basically every kid gets them time and time again in childhood.
The game -- and fear -- is over.
There's no reason to take the significant risk from the shots either for virtually everyone.
You just have to look and you might have to sneeze. "
