I don’t believe I have had Covid myself and my wife believes she has had it 2 or possibly 3 times in the past 2+ years. I have been around co-workers that have been positive and I have never experienced any symptoms of Covid. I don't know if I am one of those that are immune to Covid genetically or if I just don’t show symptoms. The article is a look at two different scientific groups now working together to try to figure this out. Being Genetic and infectious disease groups.
I read a prior article from Brazil a year or so ago about spouses being asked to volunteer to be tested genetically if they never were infected when their spouse had Covid. This article was the follow up of that article from before.
Hopefully it is a delta 32 genetic issue because we are invested in a drug in Leronlimab that mimics the delta 32 mutation. I wonder if I can be tested for this mutation? It is higher (over 10%) in Scandinavian population and I have a whole lot of Norwegian in me. (23andMe says 61%). Hmmmm… Maybe I am immune to HIV and Covid? Or maybe I am just lucky so far? Maybe they can figure this out from our Brazil studies? Maybe these are the group that wants us to unblind? Just my own speculation… but what if? Hmmm… pondering the possibilities.
