My neighbor is actually a Dr working on the response team for Boston. He is surprisingly optimistic.
One really cool thing we discussed yesterday was, why certain people get it so badly while others don't
He was saying that he thought as in wondered, if people who are exposed to low levels of it, like -you go to the store and touch something that an infected person touched and then wipe your eye. That type of thing. Those people may actually fight off the virus right away and build immunity. It was a hypothesis, so nothing concrete but I thought it was cool and makes sense.
He also said the most severe cases seem to be from droplets. So really close contact.
I feel terribly for NYC. I lived there for 25 years and thankfully moved last April. I hope the rest of the country is using them as an example.
You are doing enough for this country. Protect yourself from this **** so you can continue to do so.
