Although kids fight off COVID-19 quickly, they don't develop adaptive immunity --study

Mon, 2023-01-30 09:24 — mike kraft

How Australia Saved Thousands of Lives While COVID Killed 1 Million Americans MELBOURNE, Australia — If the United States had the same COVID death rate as Australia, about 900,000 lives would have been saved. For many Americans, imagining what might have been will be painful.
