On September 28, the Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce will host a Top of the Ticket Gubernatorial Debate between Glenn Youngkin and Terry McAuliffe. Virginians are invited to attend in person or by watching online.
If you want to attend in person, the Chamber requires that you “be fully vaccinated. All attendees will be asked to provide their physical COVID-19 vaccine card, a photo of vaccination card, or Health Pass by CLEAR.”
So, if you have recovered from COVID-19, have active antibodies and no need for a COVID vaccination, you will be excluded intentionally from the event.
As we learn more and more about this virus, studies are showing that people who have recovered from the illness are better protected by their own antibodies than are people who have been given the “jab.” According to Dr. Marty Makary, professor at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, this is “because with natural immunity, the body develops antibodies to the entire surface of the virus, not just a spike protein constructed from a vaccine.” Some studies have shown that natural immunity gives a 6.7 – 13 times greater level of protection against reinfection (including virus variants).
Dr. Makary says, “Requiring the vaccine in people who are already immune with natural immunity has no scientific support.” https://www.usnews.com/news/national-news/why-covid-19-vaccines-should-not-be-required-for-all-americans
There are countless Americans who have had COVID-19, and many don’t even know they had it. They have antibodies, too.
COVID-19 antibody testing is available ($29.99 at Giant Pharmacy, for example). The test is designed to detect antibodies acquired through natural infection. It is not designed to measure antibody levels promoted by the vaccine.
Why is it that neither the federal government nor Governor Northam’s Administration acknowledges people with natural immunity to COVID-19? Why do they continue to dictate that all people must get the “jab,” and at alarmingly younger and younger ages?
Why isn’t there greater pushback against these government dictates? Scientific data from the last year and a half do not support compelling all Americans to get the jab, which first was promised to protect against the virus, and now is showing to be less effective. In fact, there is some concern that the COVID vaccines are “leaky,” meaning they may be causing the virus to replicate and/or mutate and spread.
Fear-inducing sound-bites have wrecked havoc on civil, rational discourse about a likely engineered virus that spread around the world. It remains true that most people without underlying medical conditions will survive infection with COVID-19. Therapeutics are available and can treat infection successfully. Vitamins D and Zinc also help to ward off infection.
We need government and community leaders who will promote a rational understanding of how civil society lives with the COVID-19 virus until it weakens out of existence. There is no magic bullet to ridding ourselves of this malady, and it is time for these elected and community officials to stop acting as if a shot and multiple boosters are the only way out of this mess.
I call on the Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce (NVCC) to end its policy that discriminates against people who have natural immunity against COVID-19, and to cease dividing our community between the vaccinated and the unvaccinated.
As the largest Chamber in the Greater Washington, DC, Metropolitan Region, the NVCC bears a weighty responsibility to the nearly 500,000 employees it represents. It’s time for the organization to lead by example and to question both the validity and the safety of requiring Northern Virginia residents to submit to mandatory shots, especially when the efficacy of those shots is still in question, and at a time when employees may lose their jobs if they do not submit to the unsubstantiated mandate.
The Chamber can begin by welcoming people with natural COVID-19 immunity to the September 28 Gubernatorial Debate.
Note: Last week, I called Julie Coons, President and CEO of the NVCC, asking her about allowing people with natural COVID-19 immunity to attend the upcoming debate. She has not returned my call.

Vaccines are designed to protect YOU, the injectee, from infection, not other people whose paths you cross. A tetanus vaccine protects only the person who was vaccinated. If those people who have been happily jabbed are protected, why be so adamant that OTHERS take the same EXPERIMENTAL vaccines? Maybe potential misery does love company: “I took the vaccine and may develop heart problems 2 years down the line so why shouldn’t you take that same chance? And, of course, there is always the genius factor: “Do as I say ’cause I’m smart and you’re not.”
Here is the tougher question. Since the vaccinations appear to all fade over time and will require people to get boosters and we currently have no idea when, or if, they can stop taking boosters, is it better for younger and healthier people to just get COVID and develop natural immunity so they will better protected as the get older?
It would be relevant to know how long 90+% vaccination effectiveness holds as that is the gold standard that puts vaccination above treatment. (Most treatments seem to be about 70% effective at minimizing hospitalization if started early.) Next is to know when vaccination effectiveness drops below 50% as that is relevant to both prophylactic and treatment usage. Right now the vaccinations seem to be below the 50% threshold in six months or less and that is why boosters are being pushed at the roughly half year mark.
If you look at the infection charts from Israel… it would seem that the vaccine has about a three month window of effectiveness… In January of 2021 Israel had a high spike.. then they aggressively vaccinated… the case numbers flat lined… BUT…. come mid March of 2021.. the curve began upward and then it went as high as the January pre vaccine level. So three to four months is your window to go out to shows, movies, restaurants if you are truly afraid of Covid… or if you are a high risk person.
The Gateway Pundit has an interesting article about the use of ivermectin as a prophalytic and early stage treatment in India. Turns out that their largest province of 241 million has just about wiped out covid by giving their people ivermectin pills and instructions on when and how to use them. Also turns out that the vaccination rate is low.
One additional items just in the news. Apparently, HHS is investigating the use of monoclonal antibodies to treat covid. The question being raised is why. Current data indicates monoclonal antibody infusions when used early are about 80% effective in preventing the hospitalization of people with Covid. This essentially means that monoclonal antibodies are an effective backstop for progressively failing vaccination “protection”. Is the government now interfering against treatment options to protect the vaccination programs?
There are realistically millions of people who have had vaccinations but do not have immunity to covid. Among those are cancer patients who have undergone or are undergoing chemotherapy. There are people who don’t even know their covid status until the go to the hospital for another reason. There are people that have had covid more than once even though vaccinated. There are entire classes of Americans who don’t fit the politically defined vaccination profile. There are people who will show up to the Top of the Ticket event and be covid positive even though they meet the NVCC protocol for attendance.
The thing that gets me is there are treatments for people who don’t respond to or trust vaccination. There are folks who are treated for covid by happenstance = people on Actemra for RA is an example.
For some reason, the pro-vaxx crowd calls those who haven’t been vaccinated, anti-vaxx regardless of the circumstances.
I prefer to call them pro-treatment regardless of the reason that they don’t want, don’t need or don’t respond well to vaccinations.
I am glad to see Americans fighting back against the medically imposed political tyranny. They had also better fight back against socialist tyranny.
