And now the latest research shows that cyproheptadine is already effective against swine fever. I'm pretty busy so I can't elaborate on that. Maybe @haidut and @Hans...

    How long does natural covid immunity last?

    I've been curious, as I've read random things in passing. Some say it last 3 months, 6 months, a year. I've heard natural immunity doesn't happen if you've been vaxed. Or the vax wipes out your natural immunity. My husband and I don't have the vaccine and don't plan to ever. But back when I was...

    Reset immune system after jab?

    Putting out feelers here! Are there any known or theorized ways one could “reset” their immune system after the jab? I haven’t gotten it (and won’t be), but some family and close friends have. I’d love to be able to support them in some way if they decide they want to hop off the booster train.

    Pre-existing COVID-19 Immunity In 20%-50% Of People - Better Than Vaccines?

    A fascinating article that is unfortunately not getting any coverage in mainstream media (MSM). The review is published in BMJ, which is both surprising and also gives it that much more weight. That may be a reason why it is not being covered by MSM - because it argues not only in favor of...
