Cross-reactive memory T cells associate with protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection in COVID-19 contacts: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-021-27674-x
People who build up high levels of immune cells from coronaviruses that cause the common cold could have some protection against COVID-19, according to a small study published Monday in Nature Communications. ....... Previous studies have shown that T cells created from other coronaviruses can recognize SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. In the new study, researchers at Imperial College London found that the presence of these T cells at the time of COVID-19 exposure could reduce the chance of getting infected.
I'm currently fighting a cold. The infection doesn't present like Covid, but I caught it from my son who has worked the entire time for a $2/hour bump in pay. He works in the paint department and sees hundreds of customers a day. I strongly suspect that it has swept through our house with us none the wiser, tbh.
