Went home for Christmas and as part of it swung by the nursing home where my Grandma lives.
She is basically in actual prison for the past nine months. For a good part of it she was confined to her room. It appears that they've relaxed the restrictions after Coronavirus ripped through the place and everyone that didn't die is now immune. She is at least allowed to go sit in the lobby area now and talk with the other residents.
Nothing quite like watching a 98 year old woman break down in tears every time someone reminds her that she can't actually come outside and give us a hug or talk to us in person.

- Izkata 6y agoIf they've recovered, they're immune. If you weren't immune, you couldn't recover - it's the same system. The only question is how long-lasting it is, and so far the answer is "indefinite / a long time".
- vmception 6y agoBut if they suddenly start dying “Huh well that was interesting” so honestly theyll say whatever is convenient. nobody knows anything, nobody has any plan, we’ll see
- danellis 6y agoOther people have caught it and recovered, but it was not known whether that gave them immunity. What's different here? In fact, some people have caught it twice, so you can obviously recover without gaining immunity.
