IgnisExcubitor Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) Read news that stated that 50% of serious cases in France, who are admitted to the ICU are under 60. Here the biggest issue is arseholes, who are running away from quarantine (happened in two different cases, before they caught and returned to quarantine) and secondly people who are refusing to get tested or treated citing religion (happened in two cases). Also, there has been a case in Japan of a individual getting reinfected. That's scary. Edited March 14, 2020 by IgnisExcubitor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then the thing is there are always different strains of Coronavirus floating around. This current one just seems much stronger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a small correction - it's not different strains but rather different viruses belonging to the same family. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's scary. There have been a few similar cases in China and South Korea too but it's inconclusive and it's suggested that it's likely a result of errors in testing rather than an actual reinfection. Can't rule it out though... and we don't know much about the length of immunity after recovery anyway so it's indeed a bit scary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mpache Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Don't know if it's because it's a weekend but the streets in Lima seem awfully quiet. Not many cars and it's around 5 which is usually the busiest time of the day. No new cases today either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
