Coronavirus

Thanks Meatpie!

I don't think anyone is claiming only people above a certain age get seriously ill or die - but for the vast majority of under-50s it's quite minor. Unless something different is happening in the US? It's always possible the virus has mutated there which would be very bad news - but given how little testing has been done there, I'd guess it's far more likely that the number of mild infections in younger people has been drastically underestimated so the proportion of serious illnesses seems much higher than it is.

Good evening DD.

Viruses continuously mutate and evolve, there are now several strains of the coronavirus, which are collectively known as Sars-CoV-2.

Covid-19 is the name given to the clinical illness these viruses cause.

Every time a virus infects someone and replicates in their respiratory tract, it mutates, with about half a dozen genetic mutations occurring. In the current outbreak, the mutations have led to two main strains of the virus emerging. The one most closely associated with the outbreak in Wuhan is more prevalent, and it is reportedly more virulent. The second one is less prevalent so far, and it has a lesser impact on its host, research shows.

But each isolation of the virus allows scientists to see how quickly the Sars-CoV-2 virus is mutating, and what the implications of the mutations may be for humans.

SARS is far deadlier than FLU.

The secret room should be open because of coronavirus, just like pornhub did with premium in Italy

They are also free in Spain and France.

In the next couple of months we will most likely go down and will make our Secret Room free before the death of the site.
