    PD-L1 can bind to T cells and inhibit them in a variety of ways, including their ability to tell other immune cells that a pathogenic threat is present.

    Essentially, you have these cells that are your first responders in your non-adaptive immune system, neutrophils. They go in, ring the alarm, and blast stuff with acid. COVID can turn them into the fuck you guy and straights up distracting my T-cells and messing with my mojo.

      “the reason we’re seeing such an increase in other respiratory illnesses is because our immunity’s been downregulated by COVID19…Most important thing is stay vaccinated, mask up uhh if you’re in a crowded area…and uhh AND if you’re immunocompromised, nevermind if you’re not tho just keep inhaling that shit in till you are and everyone else is dead”
