We Still Don’t Know How Corona Virus Is Killing Us

Everyone should take a few minutes to read this. It is terrifying but it is also backed by scientific data and numbers to support the claims they present.

Furthermore, this is not to alarm but it seems like with every day that passes, we know less and less and scientists are experiencing difficulty understanding how and why this virus is so deadly and how and why it is mutating so rapidly.

I’ll post the ending remarks for you to read. Sobering but necessary read in my opinion. With a second and more deadly wave approaching/expected... I find it hard to see us returning to our normal lives pre co-vid19. Maybe this will be our new normal? Who knows only time will tell. 

 

Perhaps more importantly, it’s a reminder that the coronavirus pandemic is not just a public-health crisis but a scientific one as well. And that as deep as it may feel we are into the coronavirus, with tens of thousands dead and literally billions in precautionary lockdown, we are still in the very early stages, when each new finding seems as likely to cloud or complicate our understanding of the coronavirus as it is to clarify it. Instead, confidence gives way to uncertainty.

In the space of a few months, we’ve gone from thinking there was no “asymptomatic transmission” to believing it accounts for perhaps half or more of all cases, from thinking the young were invulnerable to thinking they were just somewhat less vulnerable, from believing masks were unnecessary to requiring their use at all times outside the house, from panicking about ventilator shortages to deploying pregnancy massage pillows instead. Six months since patient zero, we still have no drugs proven to even help treat the disease. Almost certainly, we are past the “Rare Cancer Seen in 41 Homosexuals” stage of this pandemic. But how far past?

I'm really glad there is a lot of research going into it so we can help everyone and find cure soon. 

 

That being said

Thanks! Scared to read but the more informed we are the better choices we will make.

This actually isn’t disturbing at all. It’s how science works.

I don’t think that’s the solution.
