“The only other virus that attacks and kills T-cells is HIV, which causes AIDS, said Katzenback.”

Maybe repeatedly infecting our kids with SARSCoV2 wasn’t such a great idea?

Guess we’ll find out.

“With the loss of these T-cells, we are now more vulnerable to all of these other infections, other viruses, other bacteria,” said Katzenback.

“Individuals who are infected with COVID have many fewer T-cells,” said Katzenback. “That’s a problem for us because T-cells are a really important part of our immune system that helps defend us against infection.”

“Many people who have had COVID brush it off, saying it was no worse than a bad case of the flu. What they don’t know is that they are more vulnerable to secondary infections that may cause them to seek help at a hospital emergency ward.”

FYI: UK schools have no mitigations for Covid.

Kids are repeatedly exposed to Covid with no tests, no ventilation & no isolation period to stop spread.

Most UK kids are unvaccinated.

At my kids’ school, average infections are 2-3x - so far - for those who are still testing.
