That news is consistent with what I've been saying for a long time. I'm sorry. It still would be a very good thing if I'm wrong.
P.S. Reminder: Everything that's happening can be predicted easily from the 5 things to know about SARS-CoV-2.

I tend to put it so - the immune system is like a factory, with only so many parts in the warehouse and only so much fuel in the generator that powers it. Plus the machinery itself needs maintenance. The more it's used, the quicker it'll all run out.

I caught COVID in a bar, first time I'd been in one really for 2 years+. :-(. Happily it stayed in my nose and I was sick only very mildly for 5 days (-ve test then too and after) smell took a week to recover but did. Young colleague and his GF both still without sense of smell months later :-(. But I lost 3kg despite eating normally throughout and haven't gained it back, so I'm on the minimum weight the docs like to see for my height and build :-(.
Are there any updated vaccines in the works do you know?
