 “B.C. COVID-19 hospitalizations up 58 per cent in two weeks, as infections, deaths also spike”- https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/british-columbia/article-bc-covid-19-hospitalizations-up-58-per-cent-in-two-weeks-as-infections/ 
 Too many symptomatic people are convinced “it’s not covid” because they’re testing negative the first several days of symptoms. Many stop testing altogether and return to school or work. The reality is, viral loads - aka positivity,  peeks on days 4 and 5. - https://academic.oup.com/cid/advance-article/doi/10.1093/cid/ciad582/7285011 
 Remember when all those kids were first getting hepatitis around the globe? Some died, many had to get liver transplants, etc. And all the corrupt “experts” and news outlets claimed instantly and simultaneously that it was anything and everything BUT Covid?

Nobody seems to know this🤷‍♂️March 21, 2023 -“NIH News Release: "...findings suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infection damages the CD8+ T cell response, an effect akin to that observed in earlier studies showing long-term damage to the immune system after infection with viruses such as hepatitis C or HIV." - https://www.infectioncontroltoday.com/view/covid-19-study-suggests-long-term-damage-immune-system
