Dear Editor There is now growing body of literature supporting the conclusion that natural immunity not only confers robust, durable, and high-level protection against COVID-19, but also better than vaccine induced immunity (1-5). Yet most scientific journals, media outlets, self-proclaimed health experts and public policy messaging continue to cast doubt. That doubt has real-world consequences, particularly for resource limited countries. We would like to review available data.

Dear Editor With the concurrence of climate change and Covid-19, human beings are witnessing two simultaneous cataclysmic pandemics for the first time in modern history. Both are existential threats not just to human beings but to the collective species that inhabit our planet. Human beings are the most dominant animals on this planet. We can, via intellect and tools, literally change the face of the earth, and we have done so.

Dear Editor JCVI has again opted (wisely) against mass Covid vaccinations for all children and teenagers; plan to offer jabs to vulnerable 12 to 15-year-olds. Let’s explore the issue (COVID in children), available data, and most importantly the risk-benefit analysis, to conclude whether mass-vaccinations in children are indicated? As of September3rd, 2021, ~5 million children in the United States have been tested positive for COVID-19 (1).
