There is no such research saying that, there have been some reports of reinfection, but in the case in Japan the indication is that the testing was flawed. What is observed and best guess by scientists are similarity to how antibodies developed and responded to the original SARS-CoV. Only recently have an antibody test for SARS-CoV2 been developed, which should help research. https://doi.org/10.1002/jmv.25727

From other coronaviruses including the first SARS there is a long lasting t-cell mediated immunity response. It is reported to be still active in tested humans and animals, so high expectation of lifetime response, compared to more limited lifetime of the antobodies. But how it works it may not stop an reinfection but should very likely cause a much more muted illness.

Well a Dr. heading pneumonic research observing the course of the virus in several patients can, at a minimum, be called....research.

Quick article link touching on the immunity factor of recovery and relapse or bad diagnosis.

 
Half of the infected Chinese have already recovered (just like influenza). The later the country got infected, the later they will recover. Italy is now in Wuhan status. Italy will recover in the same amount of time. About 2 months +-.

Corona is not much different than influenza. It's more contagious which means obviously more weak people will die just like they die with influenza. Corona is simply another respiratory contagion.

More (healthy) people will die of panic from this Corona BS than the disease itself.

Get a grip people.

It is very hard to listen to a message to get a grip when it is supported by "facts" which are invented rather than showing any sound knowledge or ability to research.

It would take seconds to see that 4 in 5 cases in China are now recovered.

 
Seems premature. All it takes one person to get sick in the wrong place and the whole circle starts all over again, no? It’s not like you are immune once you had it

It is premature. China has only managed the first phase of the virus infection, but at least two more waves/phases are to be expected. This thing is far from being over.

Ok, well lets rather call it ongoing research so it is clear that there are no conclusive evidence in either direction, as the review, testing and reports of the science is definitely ongoing. Another paper discussing immunity https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpha.2020.03.001

Unless it mutates, you would be.
 
Meanwhile, we have a fraction of cases but everything is shutting down.. People are climbing over each other at Costco for hand sanitizer, water, and toilet paper. 'Merica.
I still don’t get why people are physically fighting for toilet paper. Meanwhile fruits, vitamins, green teas , etc are all plenty and not bought. America really has gotten stupider

Pakistan is also getting affected. May Allah protect us from this virus
Spoiler alert. He won’t lol

I think this is just happening to make China (the chinese government) seem better and oh so "responsive". (When they should've been responsive to the first reports of the virus instead of SILENCING them, arresting the whistleblower doctors...) So much blood will be on their hands.

I love how people are being apologist for China even though people are being welded shut in their homes.

Read more on Covid-19 antibodies. I posted here earlier on this. There seems to be some research that indicates there's not a real immunity from survivors.

There is no immunity and people are making crap up. People who have been infected and have been cleared are getting reinfected again.
 
It is the very same country accusing the US introduced the virus to them last year.
They also claimed that there were only 50 more people died of SARS than Hong Kong where the population is not even on the same scale.
We are going to hear they have made pigs fly soon. :rolleyes:

No one knows what's going on anymore. If you look at news articles about the CDC permanently shutting down the military lab in Maryland last summer due to "wastewater treatment deficiencies" (pretty lame cover story for possible breach/material removal?) it could be true. But it could also be a CHINA DIN'DU NUFFIN cover story by a government that does nothing but lie all day every day.


Oh who am I kidding that's all governments.

Gets worse. Studies indicating it may never have been cleared in the first place and was just hiding in nerve cells, like herpes does.

But don't worry. It's just the flu bro™

I'm amazed the toilet paper mockery has spread as far as it has. Social engineering to shame people into NOT being prepared. For the record, a clean bunghole is one of 2 or three things that separates us from the animals. If you're in a solo quarantine for like two months, maybe the toilet paper is the last sliver of human dignity that keeps you from blowing your brains out.

Yeah people just want to always shame the USA for everything... But when it comes to China they are a breath of free air even though it started in Wuhan and the Dr. Who alerted everyone was condemned for it and eventually died from it.

don't forget that they have a literal army of low iq shills policing the narrative on all major websites and comments sections. When the narrative is out of their control, they basically just find a way to shut down the avenue of discussion.

Agreed.
I just cringe when people assume that once you’ve been through the symptom cycle you are free and clear.

Still too little known at this point to assume anything either direction.

Trustworthiness between the CCP and the US?
That sounds like a no-brainer.
The CCP would do just about ANYTHING to restart their economy.
 
if they keep having virus outbreaks even after starting production back up again I'm moving to Samsung Galaxy and Android. I don't think this virus is going to be over until there is a vaccine available to everyone. And the experts have admitted that is a year to a year and a half away. Samsung and Android can make up a lot of ground in that time if Apple production stays in China. Same with the Mac. it could loose even more marketshare. already lost half a percentage point this year. and if you only have 10 percent of total OS out there that is a BIG hit.

Woah woah woah take it easy. Android? There is no reason to go Mad Max just yet. We can still eat steak and lobster. No reason to start eating bugs and pond water just yet.

That is not how the immune system works. Antibodies are not ”long lasting” but the cells that make them are. There are other possible reasons the one case you cited appears otherwise. Could be as stupid as a defective test kit/human error or something more serious like viral mutation. Retroviruses are prone to mutation. I still believe the best thing for most people is to let this thing run its course. Until herd immunity is established, all these measures only drag out the danger. Just my somewhat informed opinion.

Edit: Update, the immune system defeats this the same way as any other normal virus (Link to Nature paper). That fly by night anecdotal alarmist junk you referenced turned out to be false.
