"immune people cannot infect others"

2020-03-14 12:20:34 UTC  

That's quite the assumption

2020-03-14 12:21:43 UTC  

I mean he's a professor in anti-microbial resistance, so Im guessing this is something he's not just assuming

2020-03-14 12:22:25 UTC  

there are already many people that got corona and are now immune, so its not like its not based on anything

2020-03-14 12:23:24 UTC  

Maybe the virus can't reach big enough numbers inside an immune host to pose a threat to others

2020-03-14 12:25:54 UTC  

yeah that's what i was thinking

2020-03-14 12:27:38 UTC  

If the absolute mortality rate ends up being 5%, that's a lot of deaths regardless

2020-03-14 12:30:35 UTC  

yeah the gov is in an impossible place...
if the mortality with their plan is 5% ... theres no way of knowing what it could be if they either did something differently or did nothing at all

2020-03-14 12:31:15 UTC  

could have been a lot worse .. or a lot better... obviously the media will pick up on every little mention that it "would have been better if they did X"

2020-03-14 12:31:41 UTC  

and the gov will pick up all the death stats from the other countries that got it

2020-03-14 12:32:45 UTC  

there are people in my area still thinking its a nothing burger just wait till a hard dose of reality hits them

2020-03-14 12:33:35 UTC  

Yeah. it's kinda sad watching how normies react to this

2020-03-14 12:33:59 UTC  

they cant help it they have normalcy bias

They have no idea how close we are to going Spanish flu 2.0

2020-03-14 12:34:31 UTC  

people are panic buying so they dont all think its nothing

2020-03-14 12:34:47 UTC  

my grandad is isolating... he said his neighbours stupidly went to spain 😛

2020-03-14 12:34:48 UTC  

in my area the panic buying hasent started fully yet

2020-03-14 12:35:05 UTC  

he said he'll keep a distance from them for a while

2020-03-14 12:35:16 UTC  

only toilet paper

2020-03-14 12:36:42 UTC  

its silly seeing people grab all the loo roll but the food is untouched

2020-03-14 12:46:10 UTC  

how many cases does the US have?

2020-03-14 12:48:36 UTC  

dunno but theyre not testing many people

2020-03-14 12:48:51 UTC  

we test more per day than theyve tested total

2020-03-14 12:51:47 UTC  

i feel like americans might end up panic buying again when they actually get hit with it

2020-03-14 12:52:46 UTC  

800 i think

2020-03-14 12:52:52 UTC  

oh sorry, ready UK

2020-03-14 12:52:53 UTC  

read*

2020-03-14 12:53:22 UTC  

All of them are on here

2020-03-14 12:54:51 UTC  

US has 2340 cases so fair enough i guess

2020-03-14 12:56:24 UTC  

Macao has 10 cases and all 10 have recovered already which is interesting

2020-03-14 12:58:41 UTC  

gibraltar also seems to have a 100% recovery rate 😛

2020-03-14 12:59:17 UTC  

yeah but only 1 cases

2020-03-14 12:59:25 UTC  

small places might have a better chance of getting it under control early

2020-03-14 14:05:37 UTC  

Imagine living in a society where this shit happens.
