You're basically lighting a match and walking away by not making your best effort to contain this thing. What your "best effort" is not going to be the same for everyone. But it's certainly not hoping you get it.

Don'y you guys read the news? https://www.barrons.com/articles/u-s-coronavirus-hospitalizations-approach-30-here-are-the-latest-covid-19-data-51586175360

It's May 29 and you're citing an article from April 6?

Because I don't feel like sitting here writing a research paper for you. Just Google it. There are literally thousands of articles citing these statistics. Look up your age. And figure it out. I'm 45.

CDC's "Best guess" scenario for age 0-49 symptomatic cases is 1.7% with a range from 1.3%-2.6%. That's a serious level of risk for hospitalization, but not anywhere near 12.5% (1 in 8).

All the people my age I've known who have gotten it have been miserable, but gotten through okay (one was in the hospital for two weeks and is still feeling poorly months out. I get that I could be in that smaller group that really suffers or dies, but I really would rather get it over with.

One issue that we don't know that if you get it, you just "get it over with." Some diseases have serious effects later, like post-polio syndrome. Or it could be something like dengue, where having it once means that the second time you get it, it is substantially worse.

Why do people keep saying this? (I’m not a Trumpie). But most scientists and researchers believe people have some level immunity. They just aren’t sure how long it lasts, ie. 1-2 years or lifetime (not likely)

If it doesn't offer immunity, then no sense waiting for a vaccine, since that is what they are predicated on.

Good point

are you dumb or trolling

I hope this is coming from a disinformation farm and not dumbasses, please tell me people aren't this dumb

vaccines have immunization schedules

some you have to get 2-3-4 doses of a vaccine before you are fully immunized. Some you have to get every year. Some you have to get a booster every 5-10 years.

doesn't mean "vaccines don't work," it means we have to figure out:

a) what level of antibodies confers immunity
b) how fast people lose antibodies
c) what level of infection creates an antibody response

etc etc so they can figure out a vaccination schedule when they have a vaccine developed.
