Mr. E … Right Again!

I suppose that only an egotist would continue to stress how often he was right in the past. In that case, perhaps you would just call him,”Mr. E!” 

Last December my neighbor had Covid – confirmed by a positive PCR test and significant clinical symptoms that lasted for over a week. Upon recovery, I told him to look on the good side of his malady, namely that he was now immune to a further Covid infection, and would probably not need the vaccine when it became available. At that time I said that because it made sense. I have repeated that same phraseology multiple times since then, despite the fact that just about everyone is being vaccinated, irrespective of whether or not they have had documented Covid.

Recently a few things have surfaced that lead credence to my logical supposition.

First a study conducted on 52,238 employees in the Cleveland Clinic:

A positive RT-PCR test was considered to define SARS-CoV-2 infection. 

A participant who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 at least 42 days before the vaccination initiation was considered previously infected.

The results:

A practical and useful message would be to consider symptomatic COVID-19 to be as good as having received a vaccine, and that people who have had COVID-19 confirmed by a reliable laboratory test do not need the vaccine.

(“Individuals who have laboratory-confirmed symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection are unlikely to benefit from COVID-19 vaccination, and vaccines can be safely prioritized to those who have not been infected before.”)

On 8/11/21 on Fox Dr. Nichole Saphire saiid:

“We have ample data showing that natural immunity provides effectiveness against severe disease from SARS-CoV-2. In fact, Israel showed that reinfection following prior infection is about seven times less likely than if you are fully vaccinated. So I find it to be very myopic that the CDC continues to discount the protection of natural immunity. They only do it for SARS-CoV-2. They acknowledge natural immunity for measles, chickenpox, and many other viruses, but they are so myopic right now in trying to encourage vaccination that they are truly actually not following the science.”

Hmmm!

From Israel (as referenced above):

The recent data from Israel Health Ministry on the wave of COVID outbreaks which began this May show that Israelis with immunity from natural infection were far less likely to become infected again in comparison to Israelis who only had immunity via vaccination.

“More than 7,700 new cases of the virus have been detected during the most recent wave starting in May, but just 72 of the confirmed cases were reported in people who were known to have been infected previously – that is, less than 1% of the new cases.

Roughly 40% of new cases – or more than 3,000 patients – involved people who had been infected despite being vaccinated.”

Therefore at this point my egotistical conclusion remains the same as it was last December …

If you have proof of a prior Covid infection, your natural immunity is probably as good, if not better than that from the vaccines.

Signed,

Mr. E
