[00:00.000 --> 00:05.920]  Over the last 19 months, I have repeatedly wondered if I had ever been infected with
[00:05.920 --> 00:07.960]  SARS-CoV-2.
[00:07.960 --> 00:15.040]  I now know.
[00:15.040 --> 00:26.400]  The Dr. Reality Vodcast with Dave Champion.
[00:26.400 --> 00:32.620]  In April 2021, I had a standard antibody test because a small town I live in, it was
[00:32.620 --> 00:37.120]  convenient to get the test that looks to detect IgG antibodies.
[00:37.120 --> 00:44.840]  IgG is within the class of neutralizing antibodies and that test result was negative.
[00:44.840 --> 00:49.180]  That however, did not settle the question of whether I had ever been infected with SARS-CoV-2
[00:49.180 --> 00:54.980]  because neutralizing antibodies in their very nature, they wane about five to eight months
[00:54.980 --> 00:59.300]  after your immune system has tackled any particular pathogen.
[00:59.300 --> 01:04.020]  So in April 2021, we'd long been in the SARS-CoV-2 event.
[01:04.020 --> 01:10.360]  So all the negative result from the blood test could have indicated is that I was infected
[01:10.360 --> 01:14.180]  well before that five to seven month window.
[01:14.180 --> 01:18.880]  In other words, in the final analysis, that test didn't tell me whether I had been infected
[01:18.880 --> 01:21.540]  with SARS-CoV-2 or had not been.
[01:21.540 --> 01:27.480]  If you come up negative in a standard antibody test, but you still want to know if you were
[01:27.480 --> 01:30.260]  ever infected, what's your next course of action?
[01:30.260 --> 01:34.420]  Well, you can have another kind of blood test that looks for memory B cells or memory T
[01:34.420 --> 01:35.420]  cells.
[01:35.420 --> 01:41.180]  The problem with that is historically those tests are very expensive, generally not accessible
[01:41.180 --> 01:42.180]  to the public.
[01:42.180 --> 01:46.660]  You have to be part of some sort of research project in order for the entity doing the
[01:46.660 --> 01:51.540]  research to spend the significant amount of money that they charge at laboratories
[01:51.540 --> 01:58.080]  charge to perform either a test for the presence of memory B cells or memory T cells.
[01:58.080 --> 02:05.920]  But all of that changed, I don't know, five weeks or so ago when a company called T-Detect
[02:05.920 --> 02:12.820]  came out on the market with a reasonably inexpensive blood test that will tell you if you have
[02:12.820 --> 02:17.220]  memory T cells for SARS-CoV-2.
[02:17.220 --> 02:22.980]  And since I've been curious to know whether I was ever infected, yeah, I went for it.
[02:22.980 --> 02:27.020]  I had the blood draw a little bit more than a week ago as I'm sitting here recording this
[02:27.020 --> 02:28.580]  presentation.
[02:28.580 --> 02:29.580]  So what was the outcome?
[02:29.580 --> 02:33.380]  If you're watching on video, you can see the results I received.
[02:33.380 --> 02:38.020]  Up here in the right hand corner, you can see the D-Detect logo.
[02:38.020 --> 02:43.500]  And then down here, you can see the massive word positive.
[02:43.500 --> 02:47.860]  In other words, while throughout this entire SARS-CoV-2 event, I have never been sick,
[02:47.860 --> 02:51.340]  I was at some point infected.
[02:51.340 --> 02:55.540]  It may have been back about the third week of March 2020.
[02:55.540 --> 03:00.020]  Watch this very short snippet from a presentation I was doing back then.
[03:00.020 --> 03:01.620]  I'm Dave Champion.
[03:01.620 --> 03:05.980]  Let's talk about COVID-19 and flattening the curve.
[03:05.980 --> 03:08.180]  Now before I get started, I want to apologize.
[03:08.180 --> 03:09.780]  You can probably all hear that my voice is trashed.
[03:09.780 --> 03:11.400]  I live in southern Nevada.
[03:11.400 --> 03:14.060]  There's a lot of greenery here that I'm allergic to.
[03:14.060 --> 03:18.860]  So when spring hits and all the pollen goes crazy, well, I end up sounding like this for
[03:18.860 --> 03:19.860]  a couple of weeks.
[03:19.860 --> 03:20.860]  So I apologize for that.
[03:20.860 --> 03:25.700]  Around that same time, I also had a cough, but I only coughed at night when laying down
[03:25.700 --> 03:26.700]  in bed.
[03:26.700 --> 03:32.220]  So I presumed it was allergy-related post-nasal drip causing a cough.
[03:32.220 --> 03:35.100]  I didn't cough at all during the day.
[03:35.780 --> 03:41.380]  Once I went vertical, spent the whole day vertical, I didn't cough even once.
[03:41.380 --> 03:46.380]  We talk about the COVID cough, but throughout this entire event, I have not read a single
[03:46.380 --> 03:51.100]  thing that says the COVID cough only impacts you when you're laying down and you don't
[03:51.100 --> 03:53.140]  cough at all when you're vertical.
[03:53.140 --> 03:58.140]  So I didn't presume that it had anything to do with SARS-CoV-2.
[03:58.140 --> 04:01.020]  So here's kind of a humorous thing about that clip you just watched where I was presuming
[04:01.020 --> 04:03.740]  that all of that was just allergies.
[04:03.740 --> 04:09.260]  It could have been, who knows, but about three weeks later, there was somebody from WHO,
[04:09.260 --> 04:14.500]  the World Health Organization speaking, and he said that for the vast, vast, vast majority
[04:14.500 --> 04:19.380]  of people who contract SARS-CoV-2, in other words, they get it inside them, they are infected,
[04:19.380 --> 04:24.620]  if it manifests at all, it will manifest no differently than seasonal allergies.
[04:24.620 --> 04:31.060]  Okay, so that was three weeks after I was saying, it's not COVID, it's just allergies.
[04:31.980 --> 04:38.900]  One of the most grotesque things I've seen during the SARS-CoV-2 episode is the misinformation
[04:38.900 --> 04:44.900]  intentionally put out by the media in order to manipulate the American people.
[04:44.900 --> 04:52.260]  And one of those grotesque false narratives, when you understand the science, it's so appalling.
[04:52.260 --> 04:55.420]  There's very few things I look at the media and say, whoever says that should be arrested
[04:55.420 --> 04:56.420]  and prosecuted.
[04:56.700 --> 05:04.580]  This I think rises to that level, and the lie is that vaccine-driven immunity is superior
[05:04.580 --> 05:06.780]  to prior infection immunity.
[05:06.780 --> 05:12.700]  The reason that that is so egregious is the science is incontrovertible.
[05:12.700 --> 05:19.700]  Prior infection immunity is dramatically stronger and better than the vaccine-driven immunity.
[05:19.700 --> 05:22.860]  You can see this without having to understand the science because you already know there's
[05:22.860 --> 05:27.540]  been a lot of dialogue about a third shot of the Pfizer vaccine, Israel authorized it
[05:27.540 --> 05:32.740]  weeks and weeks ago, the U.S. just authorized it several days ago, and that's only in many
[05:32.740 --> 05:38.620]  cases the people had their first set of shots four or five months ago, and it's already
[05:38.620 --> 05:39.860]  waning.
[05:39.860 --> 05:44.900]  But in my case, in the case of every single other person with a prior infection, the immunity
[05:44.900 --> 05:48.820]  is strong and incredibly long-lasting.
[05:49.820 --> 05:55.100]  A moment ago I mentioned that neutralizing antibodies fade out in about five to eight
[05:55.100 --> 05:58.500]  months, and that's exactly what they are supposed to do.
[05:58.500 --> 06:01.140]  That's how the immune system is designed to function.
[06:01.140 --> 06:06.180]  So if somebody gets SARS-CoV-2 in them and their body defeats it, five to eight months
[06:06.180 --> 06:09.660]  later those neutralizing antibodies will fade.
[06:09.660 --> 06:14.660]  That's not an error, it's not a problem, it's not a failure of their immune process.
[06:14.660 --> 06:17.740]  It's exactly how the system is intended to operate.
[06:17.740 --> 06:26.460]  So once the neutralizing antibodies fade, the memory B cells and the memory T cells
[06:26.460 --> 06:33.540]  take over the job, which is exactly as our immune systems are intended to operate, which
[06:33.540 --> 06:40.580]  is why a test such as the one I'm sharing with you today can detect the memory T cells.
[06:40.580 --> 06:49.860]  In this case, it's probably well over a year in my personal case, but scientifically speaking,
[06:49.860 --> 06:57.580]  memory B cells and memory T cells are known to persist for years, usually decades and
[06:57.580 --> 07:00.940]  sometimes a lifetime.
[07:00.940 --> 07:10.540]  In other words, as my memory T cells are on the job protecting me from a future SARS-CoV-2
[07:10.540 --> 07:15.420]  infection of any variant, let me be clear about that, it's not variant specific.
[07:15.420 --> 07:21.620]  The immunity from the vaccines is already waning, so you don't even need to understand
[07:21.620 --> 07:26.740]  the science or take the time to consume the mountains of evidence that show that immunity
[07:26.740 --> 07:32.660]  from prior infection is fantastically superior to vaccine-driven immunity.
[07:32.660 --> 07:38.100]  If this sort of fact-based discussion about things like virology and immunology and physiology
[07:38.100 --> 07:44.140]  is kind of exciting to you, let me encourage you to run over to DrReality.News and pick
[07:44.140 --> 07:53.980]  yourself up a copy of Body Science, which it destroys 60 years worth of establishment
[07:53.980 --> 07:59.500]  myths about how our human physiology works, most specifically in reference to things like
[07:59.500 --> 08:00.500]  nutrition.
[08:00.500 --> 08:07.420]  And it is quite literally the keys to the kingdom for never getting any form of lifestyle
[08:07.820 --> 08:11.100]  chronic disease, because once you see the science discussed in a way that everybody
[08:11.100 --> 08:15.860]  can understand, once you see that easy to understand science, you'll have the answers
[08:15.860 --> 08:17.300]  for the rest of your life.
[08:17.300 --> 08:22.220]  You'll never have to read some sort of a thing online or a magazine article or some government
[08:22.220 --> 08:28.780]  nonsense or some research paid for by some industry group and get buffaloed by that.
[08:28.780 --> 08:32.700]  You'll never have to be in that position again, because once you read Body Science, you will
[08:32.700 --> 08:36.460]  be able to look at all of those things for the rest of your life and go, okay, so that's
[08:36.500 --> 08:40.860]  true, that's only partially true, oh, that's a grotesque falsehood.
[08:40.860 --> 08:44.420]  I don't know about you, but I like to have that sort of knowledge and the confidence
[08:44.420 --> 08:48.900]  that it brings, so if that's you, run over to DrReality.News and get yourself a copy
[08:48.900 --> 08:49.900]  of Body Science.
[08:49.900 --> 08:50.400]  Thanks.
