“For those patients who have been cured, there is a likelihood of a relapse,” Zhan said in a briefing on January 31 2. “The antibody will be generated; however, in certain individuals, the antibody cannot last that long.” Maybe this is only for the severe cases though? |

My sister has a disease I can't pronounce which already makes it like she can't breathe. They're treating it by suppressing her immune system. Her husband is an EMT. She has a kid in college and a kid in HS and there are people coming and going in her house all the time. I'm terrified for her. |

There is still no reason to panic. We have all been sick. Sucks for awhile but even the worse ones we have got, we got better in a week. The only at risk population seems to be the elderly and those whose health is already compromised. We have 70 million citizens over 60 years old.We need to take this deadly serious around our elderly family members. |

China went a long time before getting things under control as they were hit first. Yet still, somehow, a country with 1.4 billion people only had about 80,000 infected. That's like .006%.

And I realize those numbers are to be taken with a grain of salt, but still. They're talking about getting back to work in Wuhan.

China seems to have an easier time getting their citizens to do as they're told...

I doubt it’s millions but between those mild cases that never manifest symptoms beyond a cold or slight sore throat and those who may be asymptomatic on the front end of what’s going to be a broader epidemic, it wouldn’t surprise me if there’s tens of thousands. Without using measures to stunt the spread this will double every week so it’s not hard to see where people see this becoming a major catastrophe but I agree that it’s doubtful we’re currently in the millions of cases.

Yeah I wish I could trust the Chinese numbers. Unfortunately, even if true, I can’t see the US taking the same kinds of steps to round up people and make them get into small cages to be taken away...
