Russia (bbabo.net) - There are people who, as they claim, have not had coronavirus in two years of the pandemic. Do they have such strong immunity or did they just not notice how they got sick?

As the deputy director for clinical work of the Moscow Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology named after V.I. G.N. Gabrichevsky Rospotrebnadzor, Doctor of Medical Sciences Tatyana Ruzhentsova, some people after repeated contacts with infected people do not have any symptoms, and there are no antibodies: social distance. Perhaps, measures were taken in time that did not allow the pathogen to gain a foothold. To reduce the likelihood of developing the disease, you can rinse your throat, mouth and rinse your nose with water or a special solution immediately after contact. "

It happens that a person comes into contact with a sick person, carries the infection asymptomatically or with minimal manifestations, the disease goes away without treatment, and then antibodies appear (or grow), which for some time protect against the disease. "Such cases are explained by the good work of the immune system, on the one hand, and a small amount of the virus that got on the mucous membranes, on the other. This is more often observed in those who are vaccinated, always use protective masks and do not neglect other recommendations," said Ruzhentsova.

However, as the specialist emphasizes, no one should be sure that the immune system will always work. Any stress, lack of sleep, physical overload, lack of any vitamin or trace element can reduce immunity at any time. Experience shows that any unvaccinated person still gets sick at some point, notes Tatyana Ruzhentsova.
