The Hygiene Hypothesis has been under debate for quite a few years, or rather decades, and it is time to scrap it; the immune system doesn’t work like that. We don’t need repeated infections to stay health and have a functioning immune defense.

COVID-19’s impact on the immune system, and how this may affect subsequent infections
Covid-19 opens up your immune defense for further infections.
Declining levels of T-cells, infection after infection, declining health, weird skin cancer, pneumonia that won’t resolve even with tons of antibiotics; does it sound familiar? We might be looking at this again, 40 years after the AIDS-epidemic hit USA and Western Europe…
Immunological dysfunction persists for 8 months following initial mild-to-moderate SARS-CoV-2 infection. Considering that a this is what most of those who catch Covid-19 experiences, this is pretty alarming. And since the first Omicron wave, many Europeans and Americans has caught it 2-3 times during 2022. And there is no reson to believe this pattern of repeated infections will change during 2023 without mitigation measures. Catching Covid twice or more per year likely leads to a downward spiral for the immune system.
Covid-19 kills and exhausts T-cells and B-cells that form the base for our immune system.
The short answer: most likely.

White blood cells stop acting normally when infected by Covid-19 and starts to work against the body and starts creating blood clots. Read study below.
