i heard a pediatric pulmonologist give an interesting hypothesis they other day
he had seen a rash of covid (not the novel 19 strain, but one of the 4 strains that are common) come through his hospital, back in november
he knows it was covid because he tested for it, and they came back positive
now, the interesting part is that children are not only barely affected by the virus, but they also account for negligible amounts of infections to adults (for you mask wearers, it hardly ever spreads from kids to adults)
now, his hypothesis is the following, when the "common" strain of covid passed through the pediatric population most got exposed, some got sick and all developed herd immunity
so that leads me to believe that they could extrapolate a vaccine for the covid 19 from the common ones
it also leads me to believe that of our leader pull their heads out of their masks, we can get the exposure we need in order to get the herd immunity we need and we can return to normal
