With regards to the Bloomberg article on reinfections, it stated that people who got Omicron in December or January may face reinfection by the current strains, and stated that the unvaxxed were more likely to get reinfected. Dr Alexander, how does this mesh with the data you are seeing? My impression was that unjabbed covid recovered had the best possible immunity because they formed antibodies to all parts of the complete virus and their immune system is unhampered by a dominant set of antibodies focused on the original Wuhan spike protein which is no longer present anywhere. So why would unjabbed even be experiencing reinfection? Is it not the jabbed experiencing reinfection because their own natural immune systems are now, and possibly permanently, compromised? Tell me if I have this wrong, I am a non-scientist, non-medical layperson.

The Holodomor story is haunting. I have seen a few pictures of peasants standing with human body parts for sale to use for food. I can't say I blame them, but the line between eating people who have already died and killing people for food seems to get crossed all too often when people get hungry and are willing to resort to cannibalism.
