Seemingly. Either that or they're clearing people too quickly as there's already been a few repeat cases.If you catch it and survive, can you catch it again?
Anyone know the score between Cases in Italy v Cases involving people who have travelled from Italy? Must be getting close
sorry I badly misquoted Fergal - he just said a fifth of the world population were infected in 1918 and 50 million died - the total population was about 1.8 billion then I believeIt depends on what you mean by mortality rate. The mortality rate that's being reported for this virus is the CFR (case fatality rate), which = (deaths by virus/infected people). The 1918 flu had a CFR between 10% and 20%, not of 2%, as I discussed earlier with SWP. That 2% for the 1918 flu was = (deaths by virus/whole world population, healthy and infected). And the world population in 1918 was most certainly not of 250 million people lol
Yes. You can catch all coronaviruses multiple times.If you catch it and survive, can you catch it again?
Does your body fight it better after the first time or is it more fatal.Yes. You can catch all coronaviruses multiple times.
That’s weird, I was reading yesterday that it’s R0 was likely 4-6. Now they’re saying it’s less than flu (2.5)?WHO have just released a statement saying 3.4% mortality rate unless I’ve misread which ratio we are talking about - that’s quite a bit higher than I expected.good news is on transmission rates - it doesn’t seem to spread as easily as flu....um I’m confused.com with that comment based on previous observations on the transmission rates!
GENEVA (Reuters) – About 3.4% of confirmed cases of COVID-19 have died, far above seasonal flu’s fatality rate of under 1%, but the novel coronavirus can be contained, the head of the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Tuesday.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told a Geneva news conference: “To summarize, COVID-19 spreads less efficiently than flu, transmission does not appear to be driven by people who are not sick, it causes more severe illness than flu, there are not yet any vaccines or therapeutics, and it can be contained.”

That’s individual sellers, not Amazon. Amazon have actually sent warning to sellers telling them they’ll lose their Amazon status for price gouging.It is a scandal that companies like Amazon are boosting prices on things like alcohol hand sanitisers to cash in against something that will genuinely help.
Is being slow the first sign coz if it is I’m self isolating I haven’t a clue what he meant
The common cold is a corona virus, just not a particular nasty one. You can catch a new one several times a year.Does your body fight it better after the first time or is it more fatal.
