When we talk of Immunity we mean that our body has the resistance to fight or is impervious to a external threat. In the biological context it means we can fight of an organism.1/n

The organism that we currently are interested in is the #SARS_CoV_2 virus 🦠 and it’s variants. Anything that helps us boost our immune system for that is a #ImmunityBooster 2/n

It means when #SARSCoV2 virus 🦠 enters our body we have a immune system that is prepared to take on the virus and reduce its effect over us. Remember the virus is getting into our body and is in our system. Our #Immunity needs a #ImmunityBooster to fight back. 3/n
@drsunita02

What will prepare our immune system to fight back? It needs some practice against at least some components of the virus 🦠 to know how they look like. 4/n

Of the many parts spike protein of coronaviruses is supposed to be important and having net practice against S protein by the immune system may be a good thing to begin with. 5/n
@vidhivpatel @rakshitmca @Wanderer2112 @TarunKGupta2 @SwayamSatapath2 @Rhokinase3 @rajanthoz

So training our immune system to fight against S protein is what our #ImmunityBooster needs to do. The #immunesystem has B cells which produce antibodies and T cells which can kill viruses. Scientists can easily measure antibodies to know if our #immunesystem has been boosted.6/n

For some organisms antibodies are good enough and for others T cell mediated #ImmunityBooster is needed. Difficult to measure T cell boosting routinely. Now our #Booster has shown to improve antibody formation against #SARSCoV2 7/n

Hence our #ImmunityBooster has been proven to show protection and help us fight against the dreaded #Covid disease. Interestingly there are similar boosters developed and many are still being developed.8/n
@njiyer @doc_faiz @DrSachde

Our #ImmunityBooster has some very good advantages. You don’t have to eat it. Also you don’t need to do any sort of exercises or even meditation to get the #booster One does not need to go on a diet (I mean who likes them). Depending upon which you might get, one may need 9/n

One may need one or two visits to the doctors clinic or your local government center. There is one hitch though. No #ImmunityBooster against #Covid19 is available for children 👶 yet which is unfair and hope is sorted soon. However there is no free 🍱 in the world. 10/n

Getting the #ImmunityBooster is good but you might develop some fever and some pain. Luckily this booster makes you sleepy too so you can rest for a day or too. Nice isn’t it? No pain, No gain & all that. (❤️the 🦂song)
So far only some privileged people have got the booster11/n

Coming May 1,2021 all those above the age of 18 can get their #ImmunityBooster from a health center near you.
As a doctor I have been instrumental in boosting immunity of Lakhs of children directly or indirectly via training more doctors for the past many decades 12/n

I do hope that via this medium I am able to get the message across to everyone that #ImmunityBooster is available for #SARSCoV2 via the available #CovidVaccine #CovidSheild #Covaxin in 🇮🇳 More will come 🔜 But the one in your body training your #immunesystem is the best. 13/n

I have taken my #ImmunityBooster in January and February. Many of my friends have taken too. Remember this is a #ImmunityBooster means the #CovidVaccine may not prevent infection but help you fight it. My uncle who is doctor with comorbidities and 70+ got his vaccine 14/n

Also did @SanwarAgarwal and @naveenthacker who fell sick after getting the vaccine but despite being 60+ have recovered without needing to go to the hospital. Many such proofs of #ImmunityBooster by #CovidVaccine
So get your doses as soon as possible. @DevPalkar explains 15/n

Here is another great explanation by @AlishaAkhani about getting vaccinated

While I have discussed #ImmunityBooster in a relatively simple way there is more detailed thread on how our immune system interacts with #SARSCoV2 by @pankti4299

I am towards the last few tweets on this thread now and had saved the best for last (not sure but I think this is a song by Vanessa)

Thank you for being patient and retweeting and following.
In school language I will say this - #Godpromise #CovidVaccine are #ImmunityBoosters
Come May 1, we have Gujarat Din and Maharashtra Diwas
Hope that by then we will see cases come down. And also Vaccinations go up. 20/n

Soon me, @HaryaxPathak @pankti4299 @DevPalkar @SRTKOnE @iamcrazybunny @ImTheSkylord and others will do a live YouTube Zoom session on #CovidVaccine and Variants. Please watch the tweets by us.
HCP wanting to contribute to that session DM me or Haryax 🙏
