Guythu, I still maintain that 25 years from now they will discover that susceptibility to Covid is dependent on a specific gene sequence that is completely random and unrelated to anything else. I think some people are genetically immune to it and some people are genetically susceptible to it. Severity of infection might also be decided genetically.

That's not to say that I think this virus was created to target a specific human genome. I just think that's how it works.

Could explain why several of my half siblings, and their children, have caught it, but I have not, nor have my children.

I have no full siblings.

Could be like the whole Black Plague thing. There is a specific gene that 10% or so of Europeans have that makes them immune to HIV. They are decedents of people who survived the Plague.

Possibly the same type of thing?

Correct. I think that susceptibility to severe COVID is due to certain blood types. If I recall correctly, there was a study about people with type A blood that had it worse. Someone can correct me on that, though.

That's correct. I remember it from the "main" covid thread
