Co Op city has 50%+ antibody. (that’s in the bronx)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Co-op_City,_Bronx
So ‘herd’ is at *least* 50% antibodies. Cross immunity, T-cell etc may account for some, but if coop city got at least 50% antibodies...the rest don’t account for a majority of ‘immunity’ on their own. The idea that ‘herd’ antibody with this is 20% or so is just not true. If it WERE true, coop city wouldn’t HAVE 50% antibodies.
BTW, all those big buildings...you check your mail after riding an elevator with hundreds of other people in a mail room visited by hundreds (thousands?) of other people. You share a garbage room on your floor with dozens of people...etc. Many of those are middle class ‘essential’ workers who didn’t have the ability to work from home.

‘I am now paying the price’: Grayson County sheriff, family test positive for coronavirus
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Grayson County Sheriff Norman Chaffins has confirmed he and his family has tested positive for coronavirus.
Chaffins shared his experience battling the virus in a lengthy Facebook post on Sunday.
He said he believes his family contracted the virus following a June RV trip to Wyoming and Montana. He said even though his family had less contact with people during the trip, they didn’t always wear masks.
Immunity to Covid-19 may be lost in just a few months and it could be caught again like a common cold, new research suggests

Disney World Streamers Attend Reopening Despite Concerning Symptoms
A YouTuber livestreamed her trip to Disney World in Orlando, Florida, as the park re-opened this weekend, even as she and a companion developed coronavirus-like symptoms in real-time. The YouTube channel “That Crazy Disney Lady” was live nearly six hours on Friday and nearly five more on Saturday. As the journey went on, its subjects began experiencing coughs, shortness of breath and severe vomiting. The streamers returned to the park anyway, dismissing the possibility that they had caught COVID-19.
Coronavirus warning from Italy: Effects of COVID-19 could be worse than first thought
Psychosis, insomnia, kidney disease, spinal infections, strokes, chronic tiredness and mobility issues are being identified in former coronavirus patients in Lombardy, the worst-affected region in the country.
The doctors warn that some victims may never recover from the illness and that all age groups are vulnerable.
The virus is a systemic infection that affects all the organs of the body, not, as was previously thought, just a respiratory disease, they say.
Surgeon general says administration “trying to correct” earlier guidance against wearing masks
Too late, damage done.
40% of People With COVID-19 Show No Symptoms, The CDC Estimates
New guidance by the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 40 percent of people infected with COVID-19 are asymptomatic and the chance of transmission from people with no symptoms is 75 percent.

The CDC is going to have a hard time getting anyone to believe anything they say at this point.

“NYC reports zero coronavirus deaths for first time since pandemic hit”
Kind of wondering since they hit zero.
Is New York just now coming out of lock down?
If not how many weeks have they been out of lock down?
Are they wearing Mask there?
I am guessing the city should see some type increase in cases follow by deaths in the next four weeks because of the riots.

“Surgeon general says administration “trying to correct” earlier guidance against wearing masks”
Yes it is too late, post here on Free Republic often quote the Surgeon General and the CDC for the mask not working. The mixed messages has cause great damage to the country.
I remember the virus being detected back around the March timeframe. Hopefully the virus is not spreading to all animals.
There have only been sporadic cases of dogs and cats, so I think we are in the clear there. I did read about a potential infection of a goat herd in India, (47 goats I think), but never heard more about that. If it can infect livestock that is a serious thing.
Sheriff looks fairly thin albeit 50yrs or so maybe.
He’ll probably be fine.
Hope his wife is also fairly thin...
