Thanks - much is over my head, but I need to ask. If you are vaccinated and get Omicron would you still develop antibodies to the N protein?

Thanks for that info Paul.

Given the vast scale and cost of the covid pandemic, there is shockingly little and mostly useless epidemiology.

For example, no graphs of zinc blood levels, or endothelial, or ACE2 receptor zinc levels, by age, gender, race, fat content, and every other variable, versus infection outcomes. And the same for vitamin D, C, HbA1c, neutrophils, lymphocytes, cholesterol, ferritin and everything else. Versus lung versus intestine infection.

Umpty million infections, millions of deaths and lesser harm. Epidemiologists should have had all the answers a year ago.

The absurdly simplistic official information is that old, fat, comorbidity, immune compromised people are especially in trouble, and better get vaxxed.

If infected, stay home and suck a cough lolly until nearly dead. Then, if there is space, the hospitals will give some steroid, some ineffectual remdesivir, some oxygen, some heparin or rat poison and that's about it.

I think I'd rather have early horse dewormer than too-late rat poison.

Now that omicron has come around with a hugely modified S protein, the vaccinated have little to no protection


Fortunately I remain a pure blood so can produce antibodies of all sorts.

It's now 17 years since Henry Nimsn, me and others were on the sars case right here in SI.

I still like my proposed innoculation via intestines method to the Clot Shot with much collateral damage as well as stopping antibody formation.

PS ... With so much money to be made, some more gain of function research is needed to enable new vaccinations to be made in case the newly developed viruses "accidentally" escape or just happen to appear in a passing bat.

I always thought computer antivirus companies had great need for computer viruses to be made. And that they would ensure a regular supply.

Thank you so much for that explanation. Passing it along.
