Which one would be more efficient in curbing the SARS-COV-2 virus: developing vaccine for the SARS-COV-2 virus, or restoring the innate nonspecific immunity by curing a person’s latent or symbolic metabolic syndromes? Children have a weak immune system, yet they are more healthy without any co-morbidity, so their innate nonspecific immunity is sufficient in coping with the SARS-COV-2 virus.
Dear researchers, in N. Italy there is an incredible violent outbreak of this new disease, but now with traits very similar to SARS-2002 and MERS that the current COVID19 sensu Wuhan-Hubei, particularly for death rate and severity. This RG open question aim to recognize some of the underlying causes of this aberrant phenomenon https://www.researchgate.net/post/The_novel_Coronavirus_in_N_Italy_Lombardia_COVID19_2019nCoV_SARSCoV2_shows_a_fatality_rate_compatible_with_SARS_Why2
Eradication of Smallpox, and control of chicken pox, poliomyelitis, and Yellow fever etc. were made possible by vaccines against viruses causing them. While restoring an innate nonspecific immunity may have a small impact impact on control of COVID-19 infection, a far-reaching effect would be possible by developing an effective vaccine. If the many early claims for a vaccine against SARS-CoV-19 materialize into a reality, it may save man-kind from a catastrophic pandemic..
