@futzle @Natasha_Jay Please let's not run out of pediatricians
@futzle @Natasha_Jay (i definitely owe my life to them, for the vaccines alone)

@Natasha_Jay If we run out of paediatricians we can move onto kindergarten teachers.
@futzle @Natasha_Jay kindergarten teachers must be a super race, from the viewpoint of immune systems.

This is both so logical and yet absurdly like a science fiction story ...
Paediatricians’ blood used to make new treatments for RSV and colds

@Natasha_Jay I've always thought teachers must have amazing antibodies, too!

@Natasha_Jay I gotta say though, anything "harvested from the blood of" <type of human> gets me nervous.

Let's not forget childcare providers in this mix! I cannot count the number of ailments I contracted in the first few years on the job. Once we moved to another state (prior military family) I'd get that region's illnesses the first year and be fine again for the rest of the tour. Did that for 20 years

@Natasha_Jay this is almost exactly a joke from an SMBC comic too. Life imitating art I suppose

@Natasha_Jay all the sense in the world! Small children are fucking disease vectors. Being around sick ones all the time probably boosts their antibodies through the roof!

@Natasha_Jay , Being exposed to more strains gives them more chances to target components preserved between different strains of the virus.
