I’ve recently just started watching — did they actually say “you won't get it again”?

There is evidence for and against reinfection and there is absolutely no possibility of us knowing which is true with any real certainty at this time, so I would be very surprised by the certainty implied by that statement. It would be unfortunate at best and negligent at worst.
He said at the end of answering about testing you can't get it again,a journo picked up on it and gave the example of the man getting it twice,he said there is nothing here to suggest you can get it twice but in a rare situation you might,he didn't look like he knew the answer,just said we are still learning
I don't know if i am still contageous 3 weeks from infection or if i am now immune or if i can get this again,they have not been at all clear
 
I remember those placard blokes. I guess if you stick at it long enough it eventually comes true. Judging by the ages of those blokes though I guess their end was a long time ago now.

Funny they didn't move with us to the new stadium, if they did I haven't seen them.

Remember seeing one with it over his head and down to his waist scruffy cu nt as-well
 
Don't go to pubs, cinemas or restaurants but they are not closing them. They didn't even ban mass gatherings, what a load of bollocks.

They can’t be clear when they don’t know can they. Anyone who’s had it should follow the same guidelines as everyone else I’d say, keep yourself safe.
 
Of course — nearly any disease/condition can go undiagnosed, either because the symptoms have not manifested to a degree that the person is aware of it, it has been misdiagnosed or incorrectly ignored during medical diagnostics, or the person is unable or unwilling to seek medical assessment even though they are aware of abnormalities in their body.

Unfortunately, this is a topic for which I have recent firsthand experience.
Your last para re undiagnosed leukemia I can also write more about.
 
It is very, very early days when it comes to proper data collection and making any confident inferences from data available, so I sincerely hope they did not make a sweeping statement implying people cannot be reinfected (for various reasons). I did not hear it so I am hoping someone can confirm it was more a passing comment qualified with something like “it seems based on current data it is unlikely a person will become reinfected after recovery but we will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as we have more confidence in those assessments”.

Constantly throughout the press conference they reminded everyone this is a new virus and they are learning more each day ect, at the moment the data is showing reinfection is extremely rare. Nothing wrong with any of that imo.

I thought he said something along the lines of that that with any virus (of this nature) there are very exceptional cases where individuals get the virus more than once.

If they had been clear about it i could be able to help my elderly neighbours as it is i can't be sure so i am not able to risk it
