According to a report published by the “Daily Mail” website, scientists believe that there is increasing evidence that some people are naturally resistant to the emerging corona virus and its variants.
Scientists hope to find answers to the questions on their minds to help them create an anti-vaccine that can fight Corona and its variants.
Scientists are looking for possible genetic differences that may make some people immune to infection.
At University College London, scientists are studying blood samples from hundreds of health care workers who have not been infected with the Corona virus.
Lisa Stockwell, a 34-year-old nurse, worked for most of 2020 receiving people infected with the Corona virus, as her colleagues working with her were suffering from HIV infection, at a time when the infection was not transmitted to her at all.
She noted that even before she was vaccinated, her antibody test at the end of 2020 was giving a negative result.
Stockwell added that she expected to get a positive test result of infection with corona, but she did not catch the infection, and she “does not know if she has a strong immune system” or it is something else.
Nassim Foroughi, 46, a nurse at Bartholomew’s Hospital in central London, has a similar story, as her blood tests showed no trace of the virus in her body.
According to official figures, more than 5.4 million people have died since the virus first appeared in China in December 2019.
The United States is the country most affected in terms of deaths, as 824,000 people died, followed by Brazil with 619,000 deaths, India with 481,000 deaths, and Russia with 309 thousand deaths.
The WHO estimates that the actual outcome may be two to three times higher.
