Yes, surt, your own quotes proving me correct are lies. Allow me to do you a solid and try once again to get this thread back to topic.
Since the thread was derailed(no blame levied), this seems like the last truly on-topic post:

WHO warns that few have developed antibodies to Covid-19Herd immunity hopes dealt blow by [b]report suggesting only 2%-3% of people have been infected
Only a tiny proportion of the global population – maybe as few as 2% or 3% – appear to have antibodies in the blood showing they have been infected with Covid-19, according to the World Health Organization, a finding that bodes ill for hopes that herd immunity will ease the exit from lockdown.
“Easing restrictions is not the end of the epidemic in any country,” said WHO director-general Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus at a media briefing in Geneva on Monday. “So-called lockdowns can help to take the heat out of a country’s epidemic.”
ut serological testing to find out how large a proportion of the population have had the infection and developed antibodies to it – which it is hoped will mean they have some level of immunity – suggests that the numbers are low. -snip
That goes against the belief that over 60% of people have already been infected and recovered. [/B]
Interesting article on resistance to government policies from the ultra religious in Israel.
This article claims the state shares responsibility for ultra orthodox religions (The focus of the article is on Jews, but can also apply to other religions like Muslims).
Yet the article fails to mention how, exactly, they can do more. Aside from a mention of state aid for impoverished religious families who can't afford masks.
It claims the religious leaders themselves may refuse to enact public policies. It further claims an inability for insulated communities to receive messages is no excuse, as statements are routinely translated and distributed door to door. It even claims the military go to these communities, yet may be viewed as an overstep of authority on minority groups.
With all this in mind, calls of state responsibility ring hollow. They have gone above and beyond to get their message out there, and the responsibility rests squarely with their leadership for defying quarantine policies.

Thanks, fellas. 👆I'm completely asymptomatic right now. No fever, sore throat, body aches... Nothing.
My last contact with a patient was over a week ago(just before I went on vacation), so I don't *think* it will f*ck me over too badly. Worst part is not being able to see the fam.
Hope your recovery is as speedy as possible.

That’s an awesome profession/job tbh. At the same time you would be on the front lines of anything and everything.
Get well soon and thank you for your medical service.

That's good news that you're asymptomatic. You had about a 50% or more chance of being that way.
But, based on how this thing spreads, you could have gotten from many many many places.
Here's hoping you never experience anything bad from this positive test other than cabin fever. 👆
damn, man, you're on of the best guys on KMC, I hope everything stays okay, as you know best of all of us, 80% of people just go through it like through a pretty bad cold, and I'm sure given your profession you took basic care of yourself enough to qualify in this 80% 👆
sleep as much as you can etc, monitor breathing, you know it all 👆

Hey Galan, there’s an 82% chance you will wake up and drink some water tomorrow and another 28% chance that you will wake up hungry.Tomorrow night you have a 60% of watching Netflix and a 40% chance of watching Hulu
Don't forget to tell him that he has at the least a 99.98% chance of not dying from the positive test result. He should know that, too.
