On the other hand, you want to prepare for all other viruses it pays to be older and already have the t-cells. So, it is catch-22.
According to Zeynab Tufekci, there was a pandemic in the 70s that killed 700K people – all in the 20s and younger … As they know now, it was because it was a virus from the 50s that Chinese continue testing on live people and it eventually went “viral” and affected only those who were not affected in the 50s.
