The antibody test is the only reason I know I had it, other than some of the symptoms. I did that test, and then a month later did it again. They no longer exist in my system. Based on everything I've seen, they only last 3-4 months.

Yeah, I got your joke, but I really wanted to make that point about the numbers.
As Ive said before I dont believe that as many more would be infected twice

I realize there are documented reinfections but far too few to support the 3-4 month theory IMHO

Yep, but we are really only 6 months into this thing. Lots more to learn, or wipe it out. Either way is fine by me.

People get colds caused by coronaviruses the next year.  People get the flu the next year. Based on everything we know about viruses, it's reasonable to believe that immunity is not conferred indefinitely for this one, either.

That evidence absolutely needs to inform our current public health and public policy decision-making.

Having the virus made me do a lot more research than many, I imagine. Can you believe that?
Of course. But even in this thread a bunch of people who haven't had the virus have done a lot more research than many.

Some of my extreme fears back in the day (March):

Our health care workers would become sick and unable to work.

Hospitals would be overrun.

The distributions systems would break down (toilet paper across the board)

Civil order would break down, cops would be out sick.

It would prove more lethal than expected and we'd get it from skin contact with surfaces.

We held up pretty well versus those dire possibilities.

We'd be doing even better if everyone would follow simple things, like wearing masks, not gathering in large(r) groups without knowing the habits of those you are with, washing hands more, etc. It's very frustrating to me.

I don't think large groups outside are even an issue.

Wear the mask, don't go inside to bars or restaurants that rely on recirculated air.

That's probably what we can boil it down to.

The problem with loud groups, even outside, is that people in large groups tend to talk louder, which can cause more droplets.

positive cases and deaths continue to decrease on a weekly basis so some of us are doing the right thing

Haven't really seen much evidence of this in the cases though.  Inside interactions are driving the cases. 

The "large outside groups" warning is basically a holdover from March, from the early days, when we didn't know what we were dealing with, but with little global evidence supporting it.

Wear your mask, don't stay inside where there are people not wearing masks like bars, and wash your hands.  That's pretty much the best we're going to do.
