    South Korea backtracks, shuts down bars and restaurants again.
    Despite recently reopening businesses amid an impressive decline in new coronavirus case, the South Korean government has issued a nationwide health advisory for bars and nightclubs to close down for 30 more days after health officials tracked 13 new cases to a single person who attended five nightclubs and bars in the country's capital city of Seoul.


    They had great declining numbers. Under 50 cases a day for a month. 12 yesterday. Population 50 million
    (US 20,000-30,000 cases a day) Rising numbers.

    How long until US bars close again in states that have just opened??

    Infections continue to mass multiply in the states, yet we are about to open the floodgates.

    This won't end well.

    P.S. China still needs their ass kicked for this.

    They have become more of a threat to the world than terrorists. Which is actually exactly what they should be viewed as now.

            Wtf you think we could really do to china? Start a war with them? Lol No chance in hell
            We were already hurting them with the tariffs Trump imposed to the tune of billions of dollars. Unfortunately the Obama administration has given them the keys to are future when he was in office

                      How was it transmitted? Was the "social distancing" rule in effect at the South Korean bars and nightclubs? If so, were they enforced?

                      How did the South Korean medical profession know that patrons were infected? Maybe it's different in South Korea, but (I think) in these parts, you gotta have symptoms to be tested.

                      And what about the "herd immunity" theory? Hasn't it been established that an increase in cases would be imminent, and that, in itself, would precipitate the group immunization process? (through the natural antibody production process).

                      And I thought fatalities were the effect for the unfortunate elderly or infirm? Are there not young folk who have the virus, yet show no symptoms and "shrug it off" in a matter of days?

                      Lots of questions, but we have few answers.

                              That's probably where we will end up. I think a slow opening up is prudent to get people used to the new rules.
                              Eventually it will be like the Viet Nam war...".today X amount of people died" etc. etc.. We become numb.

                                its up to 40+ new cases from one guy going to 5 clubs
                                s. korea tests everyone, thats how they know and they trace everyone, then quarantine, for 14 days in a little room.
                                real quarantine no leaving for any reason.

                                                  we flattened the curve

                                                  from that point forward we should want to have the maximum amount of infections daily that is just BELOW our max hospital/ICU/Ventilator limit for every region.


                                                  We can't count on a vaccine, so we need to learn to make adjustments and live our life freely but safely and get to herd immunity as fast as possible using healthy people while protecting the vulnerable.

                                                  its a bit of gamble that we actually will have acquired immunity after 1 infection and recovery. but the odds are in our favor and better than our odds in a decade long depression

                                                      There is no definite proof you have immunity after being infected or the efficacy.
                                                      I think wait a while before jumping in with both feet.

                                                      its a bit of gamble that we actually will have acquired immunity after 1 infection and recovery. but the odds are in our favor and better than our odds in a decade long depression
