The German government is predicting seventy per cent of it's population will get the virus. Germany is aged society, so they will have a high mortality rate, like Italy.

Merkel said those words a few days ago and avoided posting at that time .... While it could happen, right now people are shooting their mouths off with wild guesses ... with zero fact to back it up



Bottom line & honest > No one has any bloody idea how far this will go and how long it will last ... or even if it will ever end



Remember - even if everyone got it and shed it, they can get it again (that is proven fact)





Sounds like Canada just shut down all but US entry

No immunity once you got it and recover?

[cc]

Apparently not - from what I've read, many have repeated .. this is a whole other animal



While the recovery rate is promising, it does not mean that those who have been infected with coronavirus are not still at risk, as experts believe having the virus once does not mean you cannot get sick from it again.

March 19 - No foreign national entry other than US .. and US is on a day to day basis ... all flights (other than US) to 4 airports only



I don't get the "test before flight" .. Does test show when in the incubation period of ~ 5 days? .. a period in which person can infect others





Wow - been watching border cams last few days - hardly any cars including weekend when it's usually packed

There are people that have caught it twice?

[cc]

apparently - data is confusing - this seems not settled for certain one way or the other



Japanese authorities say that a woman in Osaka caught COVID-19 for a second time, after recovering from the coronavirus and being discharged from a hospital weeks earlier.



The report corroborates similar claims that Chinese health officials made in early February when they announced that recovering from the new coronavirus didn't necessarily immunize people against future infections. While it's possible that there were errors in those reports, according to The New York Times, the news suggests that people need to continue taking precautions against the disease even if they've already been sick.



As health systems continue to get swamped with new cases of COVID-19, many recovered patients go without follow-up appointments, according to the NYT — and it's possible that some were wrongly discharged.

Britain Locks Down:[/url] [/size]Boris Johnson Tells People To Work From Home, Keep Out Of Pubs And Clubs And To Stop ALL 'Non-Essential' Social Contact For 12 Weeks



Boris Johnson plunged Britain into an extraordinary lockdown today – urging everyone in the country to stop all 'non-essential' contact with others.



The PM warned that the coronavirus was now in a phase of rapid spread across the UK, with London seeing a particular surge, and it was time to take radical action to stop the NHS being swamped.



Everyone should avoid contact that is not absolutely necessary – with restaurants, bars and cinemas and travel off limits, and an end to large gatherings. Admitting that the squeeze could last 12 weeks or even longer, Mr Johnson acknowledged he was 'asking a lot'.
