Anti-body tests - C-19
« on: April 10, 2020, 06:00:57 PM »

I read a brief report earlier about those that have been tested for anti-bodies aren't showing the results expected.  It seems to be that the younger the sufferer is the less anti-bodies have been found.  The older a person is, the more anti-bodies appear on tests.  In some who have been diagnosed, they have shown no anti-bodies at all.

I wonder too how those that have regularly had the 'flu jab have been affected ....... have they caught it, needed treatment, recovered or died ......

It is suggested that older people have more anti-bodies so are likely to recover ....... which may mean that we have more immunity than the youngesters, I will be interested if this aspect is followed up.

That was the case with the Spanish flu after the WW1. It was the younger generation who were most affected .
