The answer is "no" and that entire theory is misinformed.

Where's that data scientist whose around here downplaying covid and saying the only reason kids are filling hospitals is because they were locked down for two years (lol) and therefore don't have immune systems?

        funnily enough he wasn't banned, but after a mod saw this, he got banned... twice lol

        from the mod logs:

        1. banned reason: Covid misinfo / antivax
        2. unbanned
        3. banned reason: Also a dipshit

        I love our mods

      Oh thank god, the "kids are getting more sick because they were quarantining for two years" is literally a chud talking point, and props to the user who called them out on that bullshit immediately in the original thread.

    From my point of view, right now, avoiding flu and COVID-19 is a priority. Those are not going to help you develop a healthy immune response and in fact, they can do a lot of damage to the lungs during that critical developmental time. Data that children that have more infections in the first six months to a year of life go on to have more problems.

      In German such a person is known as a Fachidiot ("subject-idiot").
