Microbiome-Based Hypothesis on Ivermectin’s Mechanism in COVID-19: Ivermectin Feeds Bifidobacterial to Boost Immunity

Sabine Hazan Ivermectin is an anti-parasitic agent that has gained attention as a potential COVID-19 therapeutic. It is a compound of the type Avermectin, which is a fermented by-product of Streptomyces avermitilis. Bifidobacterium is a member of the same phylum as Streptomyces spp., suggesting it may have a symbiotic relation with Streptomyces. Decreased Bifidobacterium levels are observed in COVID-19 susceptibility states, including old […]

Is the Small Kingdom of Qatar About to Change Global Pandemic Policy?

Guy Hatchard Remarkably some scientists in Qatar working with counterparts in New York have undertaken a study asking vital questions. They decided to study only the unvaccinated. They found: “Effectiveness of primary infection against severe, critical, or fatal COVID-19 reinfection was 97.3% (95% CI: 94.9- 98.6%), irrespective of the variant of primary infection or reinfection, […]

Natural Immunity Is Not – And Never Was – Just a Right-Wing Conspiracy Theory

Jonathan Engler There was never any reason to expect that “natural immunity”  – the protection acquired through infection by SARS-COV-2 – should not be similar to that acquired for other respiratory viruses humankind has come into contact with – robust, flexible and durable. Were it not, our species would have been wiped out many millennia […]

Duration of Immune Protection of SARS-CoV-2 Natural Infection Against Infection in Qatar

Hiam Chemaitelly et al. The future of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic hinges on virus evolution and duration of immune protection of natural infection against reinfection. We investigated duration of protection afforded by natural infection, the effect of viral immune evasion on duration of protection, and protection against severe reinfection, in Qatar, between February 28, 2020 and […]

The Biggest Public Health Threat Is Not a Virus but a Weakened Immune System

Carla Peeters A growing list of scientific studies have now shown that immunity following natural infection provides durable protection often far better than immunity following Covid-19 vaccination. Several governments focus on mandated vaccination. However natural immunity and a strong immune system are what are really needed to build full protection and a healthier population. … […]

No Jab, Lower Hospitalizations – Finds International Survey

Alliance for Natural Health An international survey of a health-aware, ‘Control Group’ that includes over 300,000 people who have chosen to avoid COVID-19 vaccination, shows participants place minimal burden on health systems through their strong reliance on natural immunity, self-care and the use of natural health supplements to help prevent or even treat COVID-19. Yet […]

Naturally-acquired Immunity Dynamics Against SARS-CoV-2 in Children and Adolescents

Tal Patalon et al. There are paucity of studies examining naturally acquired immunity against SARS- CoV-2 in children and adolescents, though they are generally the last group to be afforded the vaccine, and a significant portion of them are still unvaccinated. This study examined the duration of protection conferred by a previous SARS-CoV-2 infection amongst […]
