Around 10 years ago, I found out my license was suspended.  I had been driving that way for 2 years...had no idea.  
I get a ticket about half the time, too.  They've never gotten me at anywhere near how fast I had been driving within 30 seconds of them pulling me over, though.  That's luck.
.
I also had an after-the-fact WHOA moment - driving down by Lake Okeechobee, got pulled over.  The chick I was with had a bunch of weed on her, but was asleep through the whole thing.  I had no idea.  That time actually caused me problems, though, as i lost the ticket and forgot about it (a week in the Keys with a lady will do that).  

Man, if infection and then recovery, does not confer some reasonable amount of immunity, then it's not just Sweden's plan that won't work.  Nobody's will. Because the lockdowns can't last forever.

If we can positively confirm that reinfection is possible, then it's time to completely reopen any place that's not a hotspot, any place that is not close to its iCU capacity, which is almost every place in the USA.

The Swedish experiment won't work if we don't carry some reasonable amount of immunity over time with this thing.

I think the question is "over how much time?"

From what I've been reading, there is at the very least believed to be a short-term immunity conferred by most viruses, whether it's the common cold (perhaps a few weeks) or by influenza (perhaps a year or so). That immunity does wear off eventually. 

If the virus confers a few months up to a year or more of immunity, then the goal should be to reach herd immunity as fast as possible worldwide [without overwhelming ICU/vent capacity] in the hopes that the virus burns itself out. And then maybe not play with bats for a while so it doesn't come back.

I don't know man.  I do so love bat stew. 

And apparently China isn't happy with Australia, for joining in on the push for an inquest into the origins of the virus.  They're returning fire with a thinly veiled threat about boycotting Australia as a tourist destination for Chinese nationals.

China needs to pay for this.

Hopefully they will by pulling contracts and US Mfg jobs

 They're returning fire with a thinly veiled threat about boycotting Australia as a tourist destination for Chinese nationals.

And that would upset the Aussies How?
