YOUR GREAT IMMUNE SYSTEM RESET
In all the fear and news obsession about coronavirus this past year, there is one rarely asked question that has loomed like an unsanitised elephant in the room: why is it that some people (most children and young people, for example) wouldn’t even notice if they were infected with this “deadly” virus, while most others experience Covid infection as a typical cold or flu and only a small minority, mostly the frail, elderly and those weakened already by another disease, experience a crushing battle that ends in the graveyard? What makes some so resilient and others so vulnerable?
The answer was provided by a group of scientists and doctors in a paper published toward the end of 2020 which stated simply: “A degraded/dysfunctional immune system appears to be the main determinant of serious/fatal reaction to viral infection (for Covid-19, SARS, and influenza alike).”1
It’s hardly surprising that viruses exploit weakened immune systems, yet none of the public health strategies adopted globally in response to Covid-19 tackle the underlying problem of the dysfunctional immune systems of those most at risk of the disease.

Instead, as the Toxicology Reports paper, authored by leading Israeli physician and author of 26 immunology textbooks Yehuda Shoenfeld, Italian biochemist Darja Kanduc, Georgia Institute of Technology research associate Ronald Kostoff, extensively published Greek toxicologist Aristidis Tsatsakis and a handful of other researchers, noted, the public health Covid-19 response has rested on three tactics: 1) avoid the virus indefinitely (via lockdowns, masks and social distancing), 2) mitigate symptoms with traditional pharmaceutical treatments when the immune system is overwhelmed and serious infection occurs and 3) vaccinate against the specific strain of the virus, repeating as often as necessary.
All of these recommendations, say the researchers, are “based on the concept that pandemics/outbreaks can be controlled/prevented while maintaining the immune-degrading lifestyles followed by much of the global population.”
