The Oldest Man posted:Would you be eager to go lick all your friends right after hell virus lockdown was lifted? A few people would but I don't think that's most people. There'd be a ramp up over time. My understanding is that the lockdown would basically be guaranteed to resume at some point (with the reprieve being measured in weeks not months), so yeah I imagine a lot of people who have been isolated for months are going to take the opportunity to get what contact that they can before going back in for another few months.

Telsa Cola posted:Finnish citizens are handling this poo poo way differently and theres already different cultural norms Re: distancing that im not sure thats a fair comparison. Eh I dunno there's people still going to bars, shopping centers and skiing trips (before all the ski centers closed) and all kinds of dumbass stuff here, but maybe the difference in cultural norms will have some positive impact in the end. Now most things are closed, apart from bars and restaurants which should shutter on Monday - turns out it was legally more complicated to force a shutdown on private enterprises than the government thought.

In more positive news, the US Navy is dispatching its two hospital ships, the USNS Comfort and the USNS Mercy, to New York City and Los Angeles respectively. Their mission is to absorb non-Covid-19 related patients and emergencies so as to free up more hospital space on the mainland. Each ship is equipped with 1000 beds including 80 ICU's. They both also have their own on-board diagnostic facilities, laboratories, pharmacies, and operating rooms.

Their use case is always to be in operation while moored. Nobody's gonna be doing open-heart surgery on one while underway with 6-foot swells.

They sit at anchor or pierside. A ship that size tied up there is little to no perceptible motion. The only weirdness might be list or trim issues, but I am pretty sure they are built for that. I supported the comfort in Haiti and did reserve duty on the mercy before that.

The bulk of the world is already experiencing cases in the millions regardless of what official numbers say. You could probably randomly test any given sample of the global urban population at this point and find at least 50% of them either have it or have had it. The fact that this virus seems to manifest so mildly in most of the population is one of the reasons its so infectious. Things like coughing and sneezing and snorting and puking and general sick behavior is a built-in feature of human biology that not only functions as an immune response in itself but also is sort of a psuedo-community immune response, in that symptoms mean that someone who is sick doesn't want to do anything but lie around and other people can see that they are sick, which makes us more cautious around them. Covid-19 is essentially the evolutionary jackpot for viruses insofar as infecting humans is concerned. Not lethal enough to kill most of its hosts and quiet enough to avoid triggering symptoms at the same time. There are virtually no biological barriers to its proliferation. This thing is going to be around for the foreseeable future and in the long term it's probably something everyone is just going to have to learn to live with.

CelestialScribe posted:Unless there is a vaccine. Yeah and there almost certainly will be one, and the fact that Covid-19 apparently doesn't really mutate much (why would it, its current strategy is working great!) means that it will probably be effective for more than a season, but it'll be bouncing around the world and spreading in various communities around the world for decades, if not centuries to come.

Ika posted:Huh? They even have vaccines for corona virii in farm animals. If I recall though, there's never been any workable ones for human Coronaviruses. None for MERS, SARS was an awful failure, and none for the four that cause the common cold. Like I'm not saying it's impossible I'm saying I think the time frame for a vaccine is optimistic.

They've got multiple antiviral drugs that reportedly shorten hospital stays. And not drugs Trump has a gut feeling about, ones that have passed clinical trials.

There’s a serious risk that a coronavirus vaccine would have the vaccine enhancement effect. This makes the virus worse for those who have had the vaccine. There hasn’t been a successful vaccine developed for a new coronavirus in 20 years. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-vaccines-insight-idUSKBN20Y1GZ

This is probably complete lunacy and it's more of a thought exercise, but could you identify antibodies that infected people produced and then CRISPR the generation of those antibodies into everyone's immune systems?
