“Since the Athenian plague in 430 B.C. … we have known about https://www.theepochtimes.com/t-natural-immunity (natural immunity). So it’s strange that suddenly people are questioning that,” says Dr. Martin Kulldorff. Nurses and caregivers who have recovered from a COVID-19 infection have “stronger, longer-lasting immunity” than vaccinated individuals who have not been infected before, Dr. Kulldorff says, making these nurses and caregivers actually the “least likely to infect the residents.” Instead of firing them if they refuse to take the vaccine, hospitals and nursing homes should do the exact opposite: They should actively hire people with natural immunity and assign these individuals to the wards with especially vulnerable patients, he argues. Dr. Kulldorff is a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School and a biostatistician and epidemiologist at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital. He is also one of the co-authors of the https://www.theepochtimes.com/t-great-barrington-declaration (Great Barrington Declaration). We discuss the efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines, the politicization of science, and the Biden administration’s recent push to mandate vaccines for children.
