Looks like 10-16 days from exposure to back up and around, and you don't require hospitalization unless you're old, already sick, or otherwise not in decent health. But hey, e'erybody panic all up in here! |

My big question is how resistant is one after having it to getting it again...

That's a very legitimate question that I haven't seen answered yet. I'd also like to know how long the virus survives on hard surfaces. How long does it survive on my steering wheel, or a countertop?

I've heard that it doesn't survive very long exposed to the environment. It needs to be in a host within an hour or so. And the warmer it is, the faster it croaks.

From harvard website, not sure how up to date.
Can a person who has had coronavirus get infected again? While we don't know the answer yet, most people would likely develop at least short-term immunity to the specific coronavirus that causes COVID-19. However, you would still be susceptible to a different coronavirus infection. Or, this particular virus could mutate, just like the influenza virus does each year. Often these mutations change the virus enough to make you susceptible, because your immune system thinks it is an infection that it has never seen before. How long can the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 survive on surfaces? We don't yet know how long the coronavirus can survive on surfaces such as plastic, porcelain, granite, steel, or copper. In the meantime, the CDC recommends cleaning frequently touched surfaces and objects every day. These include counters, tabletops, doorknobs, bathroom fixtures, toilets, phones, keyboards, tablets, and bedside tables. If surfaces are dirty, first clean them using a detergent and water, then disinfect them. A list of products suitable for use against COVID-19 is available here. This list has been pre-approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for use during the COVID-19 outbreak. |

"We found that viable virus could be detected in aerosols up to 3 hours post aerosolization, up to 4 hours on copper, up to 24 hours on cardboard and up to 2-3 days on plastic and stainless steel."

3 hrs to 3 days it can survive on various surfaces, depending on temp and surface. |

Outside of the usual common sense precautions, The only change I have made is to take a leave of absence from volunteering at the hospital. I read this morning that some VA hospitals have shut down their volunteer programs. I needed a break anyway.
About 90% of the procedures performed at our hospital are elective. Mostly Colonoscopies and Cataracts. It's probably only a matter of time until people start postponing them (I would) or the hospital shuts them down because the staff is needed elsewhere if this this thing does get worse. |

A virus is either viable if able to infect or non-viable if degraded beyond contagion. The term "live virus" has become commonplace but it is a misnomer. |

I bet anyone that has to stay home from this won't get a break on their bills. You had the kung flu? You still owe $400 on your electric bill. Car payment still due. Rent? Pay up. Mortgage, Pay up. Many families can't afford to miss 2 weeks of work.

With all the schools that have/will close it also creates a financial burden as ypu are not sick and maybe don't have leave/can't stay home just because... I'm wondering about tech and other schools that programs are not online(cant be) what will happen, shift everything or sucks to be you no credit take it over(maybe next year as some only offered once a year). I'm not saying precautions shouldn't be taken but it can and will cause hardships to those who never get sick. |
