It's all good.

Not going to bite.  Lets stick to this problem.  Asking for a friend.

Avoiding the politics and thinking not so good thoughts...Does anybody really see an end game here?  I read some medical expert that is saying this virus will become like the flu and be around for a LONG time.  He said it will become a seasonal thing like the flu.  But if it's considerably worse than the flu, and it is with a higher percentage of deaths per number of cases, then what do we do to get back to normal?  For how long are we gonna have to go to these drastic measures to avoid getting it?  Seems to me this won't really be over until proven and easy to administer treatments are developed that greatly reduce the mortality rate, and/or an effective vaccine is developed.  And they are all saying a vaccine is 12-18 months away.

Second thought that has me a little freaked out...did you hear that a tiger in the Bronx Zoo tested positive for it?  If this virus can infect animals as far removed from humans as tigers, what other animals will be infected?  And will they be a continuing reservoir for the virus and another means of spreading it?

Yep heard that about both. About the frequency?   A while back. Weeks maybe.   IF what they are saying is correct. The tiger?  Couple days ago I think.  We got it from animals so yeah, reservoir.

We don’t know the denominator.
