I often post about how most of our chronic diseases (cancer, heart disease, MS etc.) are probably caused by chronic infections i.e. getting infected in younger life and the pathogen then living in your body for years, even decades, before becoming chronic illness. Another confirmation of that theory just published, showing that women in particular who get a shingles vaccination are dramatically less likely to develop Alzheimer's Disease. This means all of those 'mild' and 'harmless' chickenpox infections generations had inflicted upon them have likely done enormous damage to peoples' health, and we're still dealing with it. Now just imagine what infecting the entire population, MULTIPLE TIMES, with Covid might cause as chronic disease, in years to come.
