Agreed, we can’t shut down our whole society for the infirm.

Let them take special precautions to isolate themselves.

Makes 100% sense, althug hI freely admit I am not a healthcare professional. Hopefully - HOPEFULLLY - we get a vaccine and this gets addedto the annual flu vaccine regimen and we can live with it since some will get it but most will be vaccinated, We'll all remain at risk by the anti-vaxxers, but hopefully that will not endanger is all. But that;s future state, and we have to deal with current state first.

Best line ever. Is it original?

Still no vaccine for HIV, but drugs are pretty effective against it for treatment.

There hasn't been a lot of talk about it, and I don't know a lot about it, but reinfection is a thing. Something to do with the antibodies not persisting. Prognosis for those reinfected isn't good.

The key is to not get it, if at all possible, and hope science sorts it out quickly.

There's still a lot they don't know about this. They're learning more every day, though, with all the effort going into it.

I have a lot of faith in the ability of a large group of people to solve big problems quickly, when properly motivated. I'd say people are pretty motivated right now.

Copper kills viruses:
A new study found that copper can kill SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the coronavirus pandemic.

https://www.insider.com/does-copper-...ms-and-viruses

All you need are tens of millions of nano-sized particles of copper in your bloodstream, and also inhale nano copper particles via a nebulizer to get them into your lungs.

I already got my cure at home ready to be used when needed, do you?

1. You can't believe the numbers from China.

2. Our population is quite large compared to most countries, so a 1:1 comparison with the numbers is disingenuous, at best. A better comparison would be the number of cases as a percentage of the population. There still leaves the issue of the numbers only representing confirmed cases, not the actual number of people infected.

3. You can't believe the numbers from China.

The US is the most globalized and porous nation on Earth, so it shouldn't be any surpise if we have the most cases. Also, the communist Chinese government is very likely lying about the number of their cases because communist governments tend to do that.
