Raises another question. If we managed to block the flu, what is so super duper about COVID that all the precautions aren't stopping it? Or perhaps someone is lying?
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76750754 I can answer this. For SARS-CoV-2, we have a R0 of 5.7: [ link to wwwnc.cdc.gov (secure)] we calculated a median R0 value of 5.7 (95% CI 3.8–8.9).Flu has an R0 of about 1.2 to 1.3 so much MUCH less transmissible. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79761702 The R number isn’t fixed, but can be affected by a range of factors, including not just how infectious a disease is but how it develops over time, how a population behaves, and any immunity already possessed thanks to infection or vaccination. The R0 is not 5.7 when measures are taken. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76750754 My word, you are a pillock! I am stating as FACT that COVID is FAR MORE TRANSMISSIBLE THAN FLU. I don;t care if 5.7 is Los Alamos National Laboratory's best estimate but the 95% Confidence Interval means it ends up at 3.8 or as high as 8.9.. Point is - COVID is not going to disappear whilst flu does disappear when certain level of measures are taken. Pillock! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79761702 I WILL NOT debate this Moot point
I already stated the R0
of covid
IS Over 10
Deal with it
or DIE
