1 to 27+ day incubation period is an additional thing to consider. I think most people could agree that we haven’t seen the worst of the flareup yet.

OMG, you really are into trying to scare people. 1-27+ incubation. Seriously. Let me educate you as to these statistics. The current incubation is thought to be from 3 - 14 days, with the mean incubation time being 5 days. Currently in the most serious cases time to hospitalization from symptoms is +1 day, and time to vent support is +2 days. What this means is that in the vast majority of cases that go critical, from time to infection to initiation of critical care is 7 days. You are citing the one statistical outlier of one case that “may have been 34 days”. However, if you read that study, the outlier may have had repeated exposures and the timeline may be wrong. Assuming as this disease seems to follow a Gaussian Curve of distribution in terms of time frame, your statement is TOTALLY irresponsible. 3 - 14 days is the current recommendations (hence the 14 day isolation if necessary). This is the science, I will await your usual tripe as to your anecdotal, self aggrandizing, self important statement being superior to the current state of the science.
