Health Nerd added,
"even if our most optimistic speculations about crossreactive T cell memory were found to be correct, it would mean that just as many people would get infected with SARS-CoV-2" ~Prof Crotty
Another question - you're relying rather heavily on Prof Crotty's papers to make this erroneous argument. Have you read them?
Yes Spooky Health Nerd I have, but more's the point, the pattern the virus follows, country to country proves herd immunity. Put the papers down and look out the window
That's a nonsensical statement, and completely contradicted by the evidence. There is no definition of herd immunity which includes increasing numbers of cases
I think this proves there are too many theories/papers out there, which now confuses people. Science is so complex along with opinions. Never been any different but dangerous for Governments trying to do their best for us. Who do they believe.
Not sure I agree. Governments tend to listen to the experts rather than online conspiracy theorists
I appreciate that but if those experts differ in their approach, who is right? Sweden v U.K. as example. I think it would have been better had the WHO not lost a lot of credibility.
The challenge is that policy is not really up to the experts, it is up to politicians mostly. There tends to be much less disagreement between experts about facts than what those facts entail in terms of policy
Well they must have been very different in Sweden to almost every other country, stats showing little difference in rate of death per capita but a much better way of life. Until we are through this we will never truly know what was best, or how T cells etc played their part.
That's not entirely true - Sweden did quite poorly compared to its direct neighbours despite having quite substantial changes in mobility indices
That’s what I said but they led a far better life while we all went into lockdown. Don’t get me wrong I am not against lockdown etc quite the opposite. It’s common sense. But with others determined not to adhere does defeat the purpose. Let’s hope something definitive comes soon.
