I'm glad you wrote something on the superspreaders. I've heard some claim that the superspreaders were a myth. It would be nice to know as much as possible about superspreaders and asymptomatic spread too. I have heard so many different opinions.
EDIT: On the asymptomatic spread issue, I believe Dr. Clare Craig was interviewed on Dr. Campbell's channel and claimed that asymptomatic spread was a myth.
This fits in with the early findings by Cynthia Magro, a dermatopathologist in the US. She found deposits of C5b-9 in the skin of Covid-9 patients. Really interesting!
Dr McMillan, can there be superspreaders for other illnesses, eg I am thinking of strep throat among school children in particular? Could this be the reason for children this winter not being able to clear the infection even after a course of antibiotics, going back into the same classroom and falling sick with the same infection again and again? I would be happy to hear your expert advice!
Dr. McMillan, this is off-topic, but I read yesterday about a study which found that mice with no adaptive immune system did not get sick from SAR-CoV-2 infection. I thought that might interest you if you haven't seen it yet: https://news.cornell.edu/stories/2024/01/mice-without-immune-cells-show-no-sars-cov-2-symptoms

Severe Covid needs a strong immune system to cause a cytokine storm.
Most have not researched asymptomatic spread so do not understand the science.
Found 47 papers looking into the topic.
Dr. McMillan, maybe this paper sheds another light on COVID.
Persistent complement dysregulation with signs of thromboinflammation in active Long Covid
