Yet more evidence on the importance of T cells is emerging. It& #39;s significant.

This isn& #39;t just one rogue study now, it& #39;s being increasingly documented.

I was saying this months ago, but according to some despite having a PhD in immunology I was unqualified to comment!
What I think it all means:

-Antibody tests significantly underestimate the number of people infected
-There is considerable innate immunity from old coronaviruses
- Sadly no easy test for T cells

It& #39;s very good news and makes an awful lot of sense.
It explains how a one person can develop antibodies, but not their partner - there are so many examples like this.

I& #39;m sure that far more people have had the virus and more people have some protection to the virus than estimated.

Very encouraging. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.06.29.174888v1">https://www.biorxiv.org/content/1...
