yeah, let's just leave it at that, I really don't have the energy to tell you about virology or infectuous diseases right now if you aren't able to think further than the tip of your nose
Corona could be contained too - or at least not have any affect anymore if more than 70% of the population got it
but apparently that's too chill for people here ...
are u saying it could be contained after 70% of the population gets it ?
that's what some experts say
(heard it on two separate interviews from two separate virologists from Germany on the radio about two weeks ago)
that's btw the way most infections work
if a vast majority of people has had the disease and thus has antiagents (of course given that this works, people still aren't sure about double infections, but it's highly discussed right now), they virus will have more issues finding a new host and thus there will be less infections. Which means, that a tiny percentage of the population won't ever be infected, because the epidemy "dies out" at some point
that's something you usually learn in biology class (it's also why it's so important to vaccinate for things that are severe and have a vaccine: so people who can't have the vaccine because of other diseases have a lower chance of getting it, because the majority of people is immune and can't spread the disease)
funny how I said exactly the same thing yesterday and no one cared...
yeaaahh i completely understand that . thats why most viral diseases burn themselves out eventually and dont end up circulating and infecting the population continuously . thats why the spanish flu started in 1918 and was over by 1920
