I studied wolves, among many other things. One thing I learned about wolves and other canines is that their saliva has antimicrobial properties; that is, it will, kill bacteria or viruses that might happen to be in their wounds; which they then swallow and which provides them with natural vaccination.

And I just now realized after reading about the accuracy of anal swabs for testing for COVID-19, why it is that I have absolutely no fear of this or any other respiratory coronavirus; and which confirms my suspicions on why people are dying of it.

Anal swabs test for viral particles that have passed through the digestive system. Now, while it is entirely possible, with a PCR test and a high enough cycle count to amplify incidental particles; the reason the test is far more accurate than a nasal swab is because the viral particles must pass through the digestive system.

Now, for the viral particles to pass through digestive system in sufficient quantity to be reliably detected by a test, they must have passed through in significant quantity, in this case, by absorption of respiratory mucous into the digestive system, a very common occurrence.

But,and here's the important part, those viral particles, if whole initially, will be broken down by the digestive system and absorbed, in pieces, so as to be recognized by the immune system as inactive, but foreign and thus something for the immune system to act against.

In other words, a respiratory coronavirus will always give a person natural immunity - internally. Yes, they can still get symptoms, and whatever damage the virus does to their respiratory system, if any, will still occur; but death cannot occur because the immune system, if functional, will protect the body because the virus has already been recognized before entering the body.

However; if somehow the virus entered the body (your respiratory system is outside your body, else you would be exhaling blood and other bodily fluids instead of just the air you breath in) before your body recognized particles you digested, then you could be in danger from some coronaviruses, if they were dangerous at all.

My theory is that ventilators are what kill COVID-19 patients who are actually infected with and suffering from the infection from the virus. Ventilators both inflate the entire lung that is usually partially collapsed and thus immersed in fluid; as well as providing positive pressure inside the lungs which can physically force the virus and other contaminants into the body. Bypassing natural immunity is the ONLY way ANY respiratory virus can kill, period.
