An older friend suggested he and his wife took the MMR instead of the C19 vax and it helped mitigate the effects of C19 when they eventually got it. Highly recommended it. Haven't thought about it until your comment.
An older friend who hadn't already received the MMR in childhood? Or they redundantly vaccinated themselves as a C-19 prophylactic?
Respectfully, I'm quite skeptical. Maybe it started some kind of generalized immune response that was helpful, but this seems a little questionable to me. They're not really similar viruses.
He's 80, he and his wife had it recommended by their Dr. who theorized it would help reduce the effects of C19 and act .... as a booster, I suppose? I didn't really think much of it to be honest until the comment above triggered the memory of their comments.
I understand. It's a very interesting anecdote, especially if it was doctor-recommended. I'll keep my eyes open to see if this is mentioned elsewhere in the coming days.
If it was the MMR vaccine, I'd fucking take it.
Merck is in a lawsuit for falsifying efficacy data on it

I'm not advocating, just passing along the info.
