Re: Coronavirus

I don't think there is a clear indicator of anything regarding Covid-19.

Testing figures include positive, negative, and void results, which IMO just tells you someone is making money from the very large amount of kits used.

Positive cases . . .
Quote:
Number of people with at least one positive COVID-19 test result, either lab-reported or rapid lateral flow test (England only), by specimen date.
Hospitalised figures doesn't tell you if they were in hospital 8 hours or 8 days.

Deaths from/with/28days is a figure that's subject to variables around dates, and has always been contentious.

Question: If somebody gets a mild Covid infection, or is asymptomatic, do they then have antibodies similar to being vaccinated? At 25k cases a day that could be a lot of needles not needed.
