All you need to know about COVID19
FACTS NOT FEAR

Covid 19 is a disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. SARS-CoV-2 is one of 7 coronaviruses known to man. 1/n

The pandemic is real. Excess deaths were observed in many countries. Not all countries were affected in the same way due to pre-existing immunity, the health status of the population and demographics (the proportion of elderly in the population) 2/n

COVID 19 presents a high risk for the very few and negligible risk for the many.

The infection fatality rate in different age groups:
<19 y, IFR= 0.003%
20-49 y: IFR= 0.02%
50-69 y: 0.5%
>70y, IFR=

Not everybody is susceptible to the virus. If reinfected, pre-existing immunity from related viruses gives protection from developing the disease or from developing serious symptoms.

“The evidence that a subset of people has a cross-reactive T cell repertoire through exposure to related coronaviruses is

1. I need to clear the air on my view of Covid19. I get attacked as being brainwashed, a paid Covid19 fear mongerer, and many more.
I do NOT believe it's just a bad flu. It's NOTHING like a flu. It's far worse. I am a bit of a conspiracy theorist fan, so I do believe

That this virus is man made and accidentally escaped from a laboratory in Wuhan. I hope to be proved wrong. I do believe that this virus is incredibly infectious and although the death rate is relatively low, it's not seasonal. So it will continue killing at average 2% of

Infected people at a time. Not per year as a bad flu would. It has a cunning ability to mutate and find it's way around even the strongest immune systems, eventually. As it did in SA. We had a very low death rate to start off with, probably due to our BCG Vacs, but now

Our younger people are dying. Our hospitals are at capacity and overflowing for the second time. Our "natural death" figures have increased dramatically due to unavailability of hospital beds due to Covid19. I feel those deaths were directly due to Covid19, as patients

Could not receive appropriate treatment in time. The symptoms and actual cause of death due to Covid19 is not the same as a "bad flu". I have never lost so many people I personally know, young and old, to any previous pandemic before.
Is Covid19 a pandemic? No. NOT YET.
