The High Cost of Disparaging Natural Immunity to Covid

After two years of accruing data, the superiority of natural immunity over vaccinated immunity is clear.

Finally last week, the CDC released data from New York and California, which demonstrated natural immunity was 2.8 times as effective in preventing hospitalization and 3.3 to 4.7 times as effective in preventing Covid infection compared with vaccination.

Those with hybrid immunity had a similar low rate of hospitalization to those with natural immunity alone.

The National Institutes of Health repeatedly has dismissed natural immunity by arguing that its duration is unknown-then failing to conduct studies to answer the question.

The CDC study and ours confirm what more than 100 other studies on natural immunity have found: The immune system works.

The largest of these studies, from Israel, found that natural immunity was 27 times as effective as vaccinated immunity in preventing symptomatic illness.

Many, including Rochelle Walensky, now the CDC's director, signed the John Snow memorandum in October 2020, which declared that "There is no evidence for lasting protective immunity to SARS-CoV-2 following natural infection."
