D&D and the rising pandemic

Well, it’s a small study that only looks at a part of the human immune response, but this isn’t exactly great news:

Coronavirus antibodies may disappear 2 to 3 months after people recover, a new study found

Asymptomatic people had "weaker" immune responses to COVID-19, and 40% of them had no detectable antibodies after a couple of months.

Herd immunity probably won't work.

I'm wondering if it can "reactivate" after recovery.

Back up to 5 cases. No community spread.

Hopefully. Depends on if the correct response is stored in Memory T Cells. If my biology is still correct.

Could take longer for the body to adapt a strong response, or as you like to point out, (bad. worse, awful) may never develop a long-term way to consistently fight the virus.

I definitely worry about people I know in Florida though. On a good note, they are in one of the counties that didn't rush reopening.

You should always worry about florida in a crisis.

Fixed that for you.

Apparently, there is evidence that- like the viruses that cause Mumps, enterovirus and SARS- COVID-19 can cause diabetes.

Coronavirus ‘could trigger diabetes in previously healthy people’, experts warn

Several cases have suggested that the coronavirus may trigger diabetes in previously healthy individuals, leading experts have suggested.

Yes, that's better.

Hey, my state is doing well. Like, lowest transmission rate in the nation - Rt currently at 0.67.

Instagram Founders' Website: Mass. Has Lowest COVID-19 Transmission Rate In The Country

The current Rt for the coronavirus in Massachusetts — a measure of a virus's average transmission rate at a given point in time — is estimated at 0.67, according to the website Rt.live, comfortably below the 1.0 threshold that signifies rapid spread.

My state is doing very well at limiting the spread of Covid-19, except for about one county. This is the county that I live in. We currently have 138 deaths.

The graph on that page is grim. 17 states above 1.1

Up-to-date values for Rt — the number to watch to measure COVID spread.
