There will have to be a second wave, that naturally happens whenever people let their guard down, it's happened in every one of the early countries that dealt with the virus

If you consider those second waves then there is little evidence that a COVID second wave will be much worse than the first. Honestly I would call those localized flare ups rather than a second wave.

any nation/group with bio weapon making capability has to have looked at this whole episode and thought this was all certainly interesting:pachaha:

like it wouldn't even matter what president is in office.. americans will do the heavy lifting destroying the usa :pachaha:

This incident should show even 3rd world nations that anyone can be touched.

A nation with no real military can bring the world to its knees with a couple smart needs playing in a lab.

lol @ this first wave second wave talk...that shyt is here point blank period it didnt go away it didnt stop only reason cases went down is cuz people stayed inside...people go back outside cases will rise....what more evidence do yall need ? do yall see brazil do yall see russia ?
That’s a good point as well. Influenza viruses behave in a seasonal nature, so do the legacy coronaviruses that cause common colds/mild respiratory infections (OC43, 229E, HKU1, NL63).

SARS and MERS seemed not to behave this way. So there’s a chance that there’s no seasonality with SARS 2.. and we won’t really see the wave pattern from past pandemics, just a constant presence, which would be far worse and very frustrating to contest with imo

Yea people are quick to say this ain’t the flu but stay comparing it to the Spanish Flu
:heh:

But that’s neither here or there. If this thing has been floating around as long as I think it has then we may be closer to herd immunity than we thought. I think this thing is here to stay tho. So idk if we will be getting waves like people think but there will be outbreaks in places obviously like there is with any virus. Either way I’m still taking precautions and will continue to


Yo, you know what’s ill... that might be true but the impact could actually be the opposite.

so there’s a hypothesis that one of the previously found or perhaps undiscovered coronaviruses is causing antibody-dependent enhancements (ADE) which is leading to the hyper response/inflammation/cytokine storm we see in the severe cases of SARS 2.

There may have been past introductions and circulations of mild strains of similar coronaviruses that were asymptomatic or mistaken for a regular common cold virus. A few potential candidates have been isolated in Hubei province [18] and may serve as the basis for retrospective serological testing to confirm prior infection and resultant risk for ADE has occurred.
Is COVID-19 receiving ADE from other coronaviruses?



So in essence, a person was exposed to a variation of the virus. Developed antibodies. The body thinks it has the appropriate antibodies to fight it but it actually just facilitates the hyper-immune response that is ADE and the body goes haywire.

those who were never exposed to the similar very mild or asymptomatic virus, encounter sars 2 and thus eat it like Scooby snacks because the body creates an uninterrupted immune response not impacted by ADE.

this could also be why children (although this Kawasaki syndrome like progression is concerning) have be less impacted in terms of demographics. If the older variation that causes very mild symptoms or an asymptomatic response isn’t very contagious but has been around for 20 years just undetected.. if I’m 30 and you’re 6. I have 20 years of potential exposure to this pathogen vs. your 6 years exposure.

If it wasn’t very contagious prior to whatever mutation, it could plausibly have infected small numbers of the population over time and unfortunately those who still have antibodies will have a negative immune response if they are exposed to SARScov2

But we have handled coronavirus unlike any of those countries, our cases are more than double, damn near triple the amount of the next closest country

And we're led by an incompetent buffoon

Those strange vaping illnesses that came out of nowhere in the fall. We never hear about that anymore. People that got real sick and the doctors didn’t know what to tell them they had becuz flu tests were coming back negative. I personally knew quite a few people this happened to. Also know quite a few who were diagnosed with pneumonia. More than normal
Me and my wife was one of them. That shyt was a bytch. I don't know if it was Corona but it was a bytch
