[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a possibly stupid question for those of you who know how a virus works. Let's say containment had been achieved way back at the beginning, whether contained to China or just a few people here in America.... does the virus then just completely die off? Or is it just allowing time for a vaccine? [/quote] I don't think it will ever be eradicated without ending all intl travel. But "flattening the curve" was achievable - and still might be. So yes I guess it's the latter. Buy time not just for a vaccine but also so that infrastructure can keep pace with the rate of seriously infected.[/quote]
