In a few days these stupids will return to Germany in significant numbers, and will distribute across all of Germany.

Here's me thinking only us Brits were so selfishly stupid.

OAN is a really Far-Right cable news channel with all the baggage extreme Far-Right entais; it is not fake in the sense OAN is real, but OAN does deal in a whole slew of conspiracy theories, wildly unattributed "sources" and a news 'style' best described as "supermarket tabloid with an extreme political bent"; anything OAN reports should be taken with pounds, not grains, of salt and any claim they make of facts should also be thoroughly fact-checked; OAN has been caught several times making absolutely false reports...


One America News Network --

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_America_News_Network


I do agree that such reportage is in very poor taste, even more so when it has the potential to tragically affect lives; particularly of those who may be taken in by such charlatanism...

Redearchers in a German hospital confirm earlier reports of Chinese scientists that antibodies dissappear after short time and thus immunization effects go away. They found this happening in half of their patients.


If further confirmed, this is the worst news we could have gotten.


The findings are not without criticism. Some say it is positives that never healed out. But they already said that - without gibing further evidence - when the Chinese said something like this already weeks ago. It starts to sound like whistleing alone in the dark forest.


I more and more agree with those thinking that we may not nerd one or a few, but many different vaccines. And they may be effective only for limited time, one season or so, maybe even less?

It is true one does not know yet enough off this "virus", but the missing of ready antibodies usually does not mean a species has not acquired some immunity. The information to quickly form required antibodies is stored for a certain amount of time.
When the persons observed are getting really sick again, this would be real bad news = meaning the acquired information in the T-cells is already gone, or the immunosystem's reaction develops too slow despite of the existing 'knowledge'.

^Those were patients with confirmed Covid 19 infection, Catfish. They were immune after recovering, and later lost their antibodies again in little time. Half of them.

The Chinese rang alarm on this already several weeks ago. The WHO, as usual, tried to supress it as unwelcomed news. Hell, they still argue against wearing masks. I want Germany too to stop funding these comical Alis.

A commentig n theory says that maybe the vorus load at exposition polays a role. Asymmptom,atic patients may suffer not seriously enough to form a fully developement antibody suite = immunity, and then find these light dfeence vansih quickly and the pewrosn vulnerable again, whereas serious casdes may form more antoibodies and more robust immunity that last for longer - if the pateint survives. But that is not proven, and just a version of the narration, I understood. Would be hell hwoever to learn that mild forms of Covid does not free you from t he need to suffer a serious, risky painful going of the desease later on to get better immunity, so I would not call this explanation attempt more hopeful. It isn'T. Its especially grim, I would say.
