Antibodies harvested from the blood of paediatricians are up to 25 times better at protecting against the common respiratory infection RSV than existing antibody therapies, and are now being developed as preventative treatments
Retired Elementary school teacher here. You are correct. After the first two years and horrible flu symptoms I was invulnerable for the next twenty. Also agree on preschool teachers being almost immortal.
Shame Covid doesn’t work like that. You just get it 5 times a year because it’s a different strain, you didn’t become immune last time or you lost immunity after a couple of months. Minus 2 IQ points (on average) every time.
And even the “normal” viruses like flu can cause problems for years.
I totally lucked out. I retired about two years before Covid hit. At my age and in that environment I would not have made it. Still dealing with the effects of having caught it all by myself. I just can’t afford to lose anymore IQ points. I’m struggling as it is.

And yet, despite education teachers everywhere refuse to mask.
At least one of us is still wearing a p100 respirator every day…
