It's not "cured", it's the percentage of people developing antibodies to the virus (either to the cover or RNA). We don't know yet IF long term antibodies are possible against SARS-COV2. In all seriousness, they are unlikely. We get hit with flu every year even though the virus has been there for decades. Most of these viruses adapt and mutate rapidly, so long term immunity is something we can't rely on. Even the flu vaccine works on limited strains of viruses, not all. 

So herd immunity is not a good idea. 

What will eventually happen is that the virus will pass through so many bodies and mutate to such an extent that the virulence may decreases (like H1N1 and others). So you will still see sporadic outbreaks, but containment would be easy. Ultimately we need a drug against it. That's our biggest hope. I am not too wild on vaccines. 

People are getting infected again after being cured back in March. Vaccine is out of question it seems.

If there would have been evidence of such infection relapse it would have shook the world by now
 

 

 

Maybe not the same thing but this person relapsed:

Here's WHO's statement on immunity.

Basically, "we dont know for sure yet, dont assume you're immune and become careless"

One more woman got tested positive after 2 months. Doctor said she wasn't still infected and Covid test gave false positive. She is bed ridden since 9 weeks and has high BP and high heart rate.

This case is different than that WWE lady who worked after being recovered in March, let's see if she is able to back her claim.

 

And she quit twitter because internet trolls trolled her for not being cautious.

Mumbai is flattening while thane/navi mumbai and pune are emerging as new hotspots. Over 1k cases in Pune...holyshit. 

 

It was a terrible decision to allow people (especially healthcare and police workers) from outside Mumbai (Kalyan, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Panvel, etc.) to travel daily to and fro to Mumbai.

Bulk of the cases from the first 2 months were from these categories. The rest wouldn't even have these many cases if the borders were closed and some temporary living arrangements were made for the people working in Mumbai.

Man if there is something I have learnt from social media is that a lot of people are dumb. And americans can be the dumbest of the lot.

Commoners of America are dumb af

And wokes of America are dumber.

this is pride month and I won’t be surprised if they don’t find at least 2 new genders and 5 more sexualities.

 

but comes to Corona both are equal cucks. California has 69% rise after George Floyd protest, New York too.

 They have new highs.

They got too much freedom and capitalism.

There were reports on mile long queues for rations in US due to lockdown and my mom was shocked that a lot of the cars in the news looked really posh for people to take help like this. Guess thats what capitalism does to people.
