It's almost better to get infected now where hospitals are not full (if you're in a developed country and generally a healthy person). Wait out 2 weeks, then you build immunity after. Except when the virus mutates :(
- songshuu 7y agoThat was the OG notion as regards chickenpox.

- thomasjoulin 7y agoif it's anything like the flu, the virus mutates and even with yearly vaccines 3-5 million people get sick and half a million die
- oska 7y agoSo far no vaccine has ever been developed for a human coronavirus. That includes SARS-COV (2003), MERS and the two common cold coronaviruses. So I wouldn't be counting on a vaccine being developed for SARS-COV-2 any time soon.
