“If we look at SARS, we will see COVID-19 weaken by August.”

CDC timeline records SARS-CoV-1 as contained by July 5, 2003.

Covid-19 is actually the pandemic’s name, the virus itself is SARS-CoV-2. About 90% the same as the first SARS.

The 2002-2003 SARS was much less contagious with only 8,800 cases, but way more lethal with nearly 9% of cases ending in death.

SARS disappeared in four months. Assuming that COVID-19 started in late November/early December, it has been at least five months.

“Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) was first discovered in Asia in February 2003. The outbreak lasted approximately six months as the disease spread to more than two dozen countries in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia before it was stopped in July 2003. See below a timeline of CDC’s key activities conducted during the outbreak and beyond.”
