Listen I don't disagree we need to march toward herd immunity. A vaccine is not guartenteed and since the genie is already out of the bottle we can't lock down hard enough to burn it out. I think we need to move towards herd immunity without swamping the hospitals. A good way to do that would be to get back to normal life while wearing masks in public. It won't stop the spread, but it'll slow it enough to avoid overwhelming hospitals.

I thought you said people could catch it more than once?

I didn't say that. Most scientist think you'll have immunity for at least a while. Nobody really knows how long though. Could be a few weeks, months, years, or a lifetime. Hopefully the latter.

One point of clarity on my previous post, I'm sure some people won't develope the antibodies. There's usually a small percentage I think for most viruses that don't. Those people would not be immune and could get it more than once. The big if here, is we are assuming the virus doesn't mutate. If that happend imunity could go out the window. The spanish flu mutated and actually got worse.

There are two strains already.
The antibodies are most effective for three months.
Some don't develop good antibodies
Viruses mutate.

My bad, you were just repeating when scientists said they had at least one person that had been infected more than once. These science guys still have a job, right?

Like any other virus it will most likely mutate and probably become many different strains. Nature will always find a way to get rid of some us.

We’re seeing more and more of this every day. When and where does it end?

Kentucky is gonna have the LEOs patrol church parking lots tommorrow and b=vehicles parked in their parking lots will get their tag numbers taken and then the local health authority is gonna require those folks to do a 14 day quarantine.

A little common sense here would go a long way. If pastors had common sense, they'd do an online service. If the govenor had any common sense he'd publically rebuke the pastors in violation, but other wise look the other way on this one. The virus is the enemy here, not the people.

Those Governors might want to follow their own orders first. If our politicians at all levels would have common sense they would be wearing masks and social distancing on TV. They would wear the masks when not speaking or standing off to the side. Pretty sad when our Surgeon General, Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx all refuse to follow the very guidelines they tout as what is needed. Here they all are on a the biggest stage and not following guidelines themselves. Guess those guidelines just pertain to the minions.
