We need to stop letting the usual suspects hype ever new bug that comes out. The world is not ending, and if this study is right, we have about 2 more weeks before this completely peters out.

If half have already been infected, they are getting close to “herd immunity.”

The real key would be if this malaria drug combo keeps the seriously ill from needing respirators. If it does then the real reason for the lockdown (preventing overflow/collapse of the hospital system) will become null and void.

Why wouldn’t it have infected millions? It was free to do so before anyone was hepped up to it. If it’s as contagious as they say say then it’s out there bigtime.

Yeah, let’s go door to door demanding blood. That will make for quite a spectacle.

Which obviously explains the 500,000 bodies scattered across the English countryside. /s

...if this study is right, we have about 2 more weeks before this completely peters out.

Yeah, but if we "flatten the curve" enough, we can keep it going indefinitely.

I believe, I had this starting on March 8, bad sore throat then bad gastrointestinal pains, felt like flu for few days, then fine.
Hope that USA will soon find that 20-30% already has virus and new
Cases will fall off.

little or no sickness? So what’s all the hub-bub about?

[AndyJackson]

This is complete and utter HS that is unsupported by any reasonable extrapolation from numbers that are already well known.

My guess is that this is the second wave. Who knows when the first wave actually began.

[CodeToad]

The democrat governors are declaring themselves dictators, deciding which businesses get to open or must close. It doesn’t matter the outcome of this virus, they learned how to get compliance out of the sheeple.

[mmichaels1970]

Blasted paywall. I'd love to see their testing methodology and how widespread it was. In other words, if they're extrapolating based on tests in high-density areas, like London, and not factoring in lower density areas, the infection number would probably be skewed higher.

I'm not saying they did that. Only that I like to search the source for that sort of thing and can't here.

Are any "paying customers" able to expound upon that?

“We need immediately to begin large-scale serological surveys — antibody testing — to assess what stage of the epidemic we are in now,” she said.

This. We are making decisions with extremely biased facts; this is likely much more contagious than we have been told, but with a much lower mortality rate.

[InterceptPoint]

For this to be true, and we should all hope that it is, the infection rate should be slowing down in the U.K. It has slowed at least for a few days. That’s not enough time for me but it is a good sign.

Worth watching.

would like to FB this

needs paid sub to see whole article

In other words our own useless government is trying to shitcan the American economy and go into depression for no goddamn good reason.

The NHS can hope...
