Careful with that. There have been a number of deaths in younger age groups, statistically not as significant as those in older and at risk groups, but the risk is there.
- shakopeeant 7y agoAnd the media is there to tell you about every single case, which in itself should tell you something.
- TomMarius 7y agoAlso reports of damage in nervous system, permanent lung damage, etc.
- tinus_hn 7y agoStatistically not as significant? Or statistically not significant?
- bluejekyll 7y agoThanks, I updated my comment to be a little more clear that it is statistically not as significant. Didn’t realize that was ambiguous at first.
- greedo 7y agoThere's no current evidence that those who have been previously infected are immune.
- mardifoufs 7y agoIf that was true, vaccines would be useless and lockdowns would be futile. There is no reason to believe this virus us somehow different from every other viruswe have ever seen and magically cannot be immunized against.
- greedo 7y agoThere are hundreds, if not thousands of viruses we can't be immunized against. They either mutate too quickly, rendering any antibodies we develop moot, or they kill us too quickly. We don't have a great track record in developing vaccines for viruses either.
