It won't be permanent. It will be like a forest fire and kill a lot of people and be horrible, but will eventually die down due to heard immunity.
- lordnacho 7y agoOk not permanent as in years and years. But long enough that it's towards the end of the year before there's capacity. You don't want people dying needlessly for half a year. And while the overload is on, the economy will be affected, whatever the response is.
- bpicolo 7y agoDoctors have passed from the illness, too. Even young, healthy ones. Stress and lack of sleep hurt the immune system.
- nemo44x 7y agoI wonder how much the viral load affects this? People working in these conditions are at a high risk of inhaling a large amount of virus at different times.
- dr_orpheus 7y agoI believe this was linked somewhere else on HN. It sounds like this is one of the possible causes of doctors being more affected by the virus, but they don't know for sure. https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/16/health/doctors-coronavirus-health-care-hit-harder/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/16/health/doctors-coronavirus-he...
