mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines train the ‘long-term memory’ of the #immunesystem
A study by researchers from the #UniCologne and the University Clinic Cologne shows that mRNA vaccines against COVID-19 not only trigger classical #immuneresponses, but also have a persistent effect on the innate immune system. These changes may enable the human body to respond faster and more broadly to future #infections.

Yay, #Infections! Lethal ones, diseases that #Science and #PublicHealth had controlled or eradicated. #HeWhoShallNotBeCombed & #SwastiCar guy, using Secretaries with brain worms, are decimating our efforts to deal with TB (and measles and COVID and worms…). Yay!

#Measles on the move in rural TX as #antivax movement and illegal border crossings create perfect storm for wider outbreaks as at least 64 affected by recent #measles cases in rural areas..
Increasing opt out options for common #vaccines affecting #PublicHealth as approx 15-20% of population refusing vaccines in #NewMexico and #Tejas. Those susceptible to dangerous and occasionally deadly #infections are growing, and potentially deadly diseases are spreading at rates once considered eliminated.
Now with #RFKjr installed as nations's anti vax #health czar, wider risks will likely increase during #DJT admin.

Please remember that harmful infections like #rsv , #flu , #COVID19 etc. will not "boost" your #immune system.
Especially children do NOT "profit" from being exposed to #infections regularily.
Even if healthcare professionals who believe in this outdated doctrine should tell you this; the exact opposite is true: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2828688
"the overall infection burden in early life was associated with increased risks of moderate to severe infections and antibiotic treatments later in childhood"
"Maybe you already know how your immune system works, but you’d like someone to sum it all up in a way that helps you articulate the details when your friends and relatives bash you for protecting yourself.
So, where did this idea come from—it’s good to get sick?
It has a history.
Let’s start with a basic question: Where exactly did this idea come from that you have to train your immune system?"
CDC detects Bird Flu Mutation in Human, amid new Infections in Cats. [ 
]
The ongoing spread of bird flu in the United States has alarmed experts — not just because of human cases causing severe illness, but also due to troubling new instances of infections in cats.

![Instead, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said the mutations were "likely generated by replication of this virus in the patient with advanced disease," emphasizing that no transmission of the mutated strain to other humans had been identified.
Several experts contacted by AFP cautioned that it was too early to determine whether these changes would make the virus more transmissible or more severe in people.
Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at the University of Saskatchewan in Canada, explained that while the mutation might help the virus enter cells more easily, additional evidence [such as animal testing] would be needed to confirm any effect on transmissibility.
Moreover, similar mutations have occurred in previous critically ill patients without leading to broader outbreaks. "It's good to know we should be looking out for this," Rasmussen said, "but it doesn't actually tell us, [Oh, we're this much closer to a pandemic now]."](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/113/770/318/939/716/868/original/a73dafd158bf2bcd.jpeg "Instead, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said the mutations were \"likely generated by replication of this virus in the patient with advanced disease,\" emphasizing that no transmission of the mutated strain to other humans had been identified.

A sample of the virus found in a critically ill patient in the United States has shown signs of mutating to better suit human airways, although there is no indication it has spread beyond that individual, authorities report.
An analysis posted by the CDC revealed that a small percentage of the virus in the patient's throat carried genetic changes that could increase the virus's ability to bind to certain cell receptors found in the human upper respiratory tract.
Importantly, the agency noted that these changes have not been detected in birds – including in the backyard poultry flock believed to have been the source of the patient's initial infection.
Earlier this month, officials announced that an elderly Louisiana patient was in "critical condition" with a severe H5N1 infection. And now, a updated @CDCgov technical report on the Louisiana case is out. There are low frequency mutations in HA that indicate adaptation in a human host [specifically this human host].](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/113/770/319/813/726/954/original/3005e6fb2bfe49ce.png "[ImageSource: Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC)]

So many people are silently incubating #infections right now -But it’s too late to order molecular tests (Lucira, Metrix, Pluslife), N95s, or #air purifiers for today’s gathering

Global Threat of #AntibioticResistance
Health experts, gathering at UN, have begun to shift their focus to try to provide access to basic drugs in countries where preventable deaths from #infections occur too frequently.
For over decade, #antimicrobialresistance has been framed as a problem of excess. Willy-nilly consumption of #antibiotics, scientists said, have rendered drugs less effective, leading to the unnecessary death of millions, many poor

I have been feeling awful the last few days. I visited urgent care today because I knew that my viral symptoms were morphing into secondary infections.
I have a #fever, but I tested negative for both #covid and the #flu. I have #infections in my ears, eyes, sinuses and chest. My body is achy and my throat is still very sore, even after 5 days. The doctor indicated that she has noticed multiple people with the same exact symptoms. Stay vigilant and mask up.
Keep an Indy handy if you have one.
And in 1million years time or a billion years time when there are strange terminal #diseases worst than #cancer which is presently killing millions of #children & young #people today, not just the elderly, strange lung #infections and incurable/undiagnosable #epidemics & #pandemics etcetera, the same #demons #future #generations will turn to blaming #God, very funny.
They blame God for everything, but they are their own problem.
Horribly shallow #minds 
“Long COVID is a $1 trillion problem with no cure. Experts plead for governments to wake up”
As long as most people rather participate repeatedly in Long-COVID roulette than wearing masks, demand clean air or even staying home when they have any infection the tally will increase. We all will pay the price for that and it won’t be just monetary in nature.
