There are several first hand patients that are telling of their own success. No one is saying it's the silver bullet but their is no room to not take is seriously.

As more people are tested, more are identified. Each surge reflects the availability of the tests and their results coming back. There are also people who have not been tested, are asymptomatic, but are carriers. That's why it's a good idea to self isolate. The person standing next to you may not be coughing or sneezing but they can still be carriers.

Imperial College report about where this "could" go if strict controls aren't kept in place.
I think this is the type of technical data people need to be studying rather listening to the media heads drone on and point fingers. Listen to the experts.

Edit: It's hard creating tables in this format. So the moral of the story is on May 9 we have herd immunity and we can move on.

And, with the accelerated research/testing it's so important we are optimistic the results will slow the spread/rate and the numbers don't continue as the chart shows.
And, following the current health guidelines on how to behave in public/private remain so important for everyone.

I am more concerned if the virus mutates creating multiple strains.It will be much harder to build a cure or immunity against a changing target.

A recent report in Washington Post indicated that this virus is not mutating rapidly. I hope that is true.

It mutates so it will live correct. It will mutate to make itself weaker and thus be able to survive?
