Even Singapore - where they cane you for spitting out chewing gum on the streets, is saying we are all going to have to just learn to live with it

SINGAPORE — Singapore has refrained from tightening social-distancing measures even as the highly infectious delta variant has driven Covid-19 cases up sharply, while the country shifts to a long-term strategy of living with the coronavirus.

“This rapid and exponential rise in daily infections that we are experiencing now is what every country that seeks to live with Covid-19 has to go through at some point,” Health Minister Ong Ye Kung said at a media briefing Friday.

Singapore has one of the highest vaccination rates globally, with 81% of the population fully vaccinated, data from the health ministry showed.

Natural immunity, huh? There are people with natural immunity to bubonic plague, but I wouldn’t trust my survival to the plague on it. Google Eyam 1662-ish.

"11x" sounds like a lot. "11x" what?
99.94% survival rate if under age 70.

so 06%x 11 = .66% or 99.34%

WOW- still way over 99% chance of surviving the ChinaVirus.

Cue the Covid Panic freaks.

That would be a great point if we were dealing with the bubonic plague.

Considering there is no natural immunity to any novel virus, plague or COVID, no difference. It might be more survival, but your body has no natural immunity until it fends off a COVID infection, if it does do successfully.

Not actually true. Your body has MANY nonspecific immunoglobulins that hold the line until you can develop immunity, otherwise every pathogen would be 100% fatal.



Not only that, there are four other coronaviruses (Human Coronavirus-229E, -OC43, -NL63, and -HKU1)that ROUTINELY circulate in the human population and merely cause colds, and significant partial cross immunity with COVID has been identified in those previously exposed to them.

I actually DO think we will all get it - just like we all have gotten the other four common coronaviruses - and for most young people it will be very low risk. For those older - or with comorbidities - getting immunized first is a very good idea. Because we aren’t going to get rid of COVID - certainly not with current vaccines - and prepping those at risk with even the current inadequate vaccines will save lives.

But this virus is NEVER going to go away. There are too many reservoir animals, too many countries that will never be successfully vaccinated, too many people with HIV who will always be susceptible, and too short a period of persistence of immunity. That’s why we can catch the other coronaviruses repetitively after only 9 months.
