A lot of the research on treatments for the China virus may have to be redone. For instance, if HCQ were used on patients infected with the most severe strain, the results would not look favourable against a ‘control’ group consisting of those infected with the least-severe strain.
Also, if the least-severe strain is spreading faster than the most-severe strain (a reasonable assumption, since the less-severe strains don’t kill their hosts, and have a greater chance of spreading), that could explain much of the declining fatality rates.

interesting take...could very well be...
