T Cells: A New Hope for Lasting Protection Against SARS-CoV-2

Many immunologists are looking at T cells to understand the potential for lasting immunity to SARS-CoV-2. In this webinar from The Scientist, Alessandro Sette and Shane Crotty will present the latest findings in T cell function following SARS-CoV-2 infection and the implications for vaccine development and lasting immune memory.
Topics to be covered
- CD4+ and CD8+ T cell recognition of SARS-CoV-2 sequences in unexposed individuals and potential cross-reactivity with common cold coronaviruses
- Implications of the T cell response against SARS-CoV-2 for vaccine design and viral escape
- How the nature of the acute immune response correlates with COVID-19 severity
- Factors affecting COVID-19 immune response duration and memory

What will lead massive vaccination to, as Vanden Bosche said, will lead to a "natural immunity erosion", where people will not be able to fight against other virus mutations because of the already formed static antibodies by early vaccinations.

A new hope ? This is biology 101 ,this was always known.

Excellent presentation and QA by 2 Super Brain 🧠iac’s 👍🤘🧠🧠🧠🕺

Is there an up-to-date discussion? It's now middle April. Did you analyse the participants in last year's vaccine trials? How long did their immune response last?

6 Months later and no further results yet and the results of the old investigation was in jan 21 . Holding back …. Promoted by Farmaceutica Industry .. to prolong vaccination ?

Most people in the trials had severe reactions and some died straight away. All the animals died within 2 years.

[@f-xdemers2825]

@@parashootpants Even if I accepted your premises. 95 to 97 percent protection against infection 99.9 percent against death Low number of infection in Israel Almost no death. 50 percent of a low number is a very low number. Think, and then think again, You are not very bright with numbers are you ???

Dr Mike Yeadon was right
