        3) “An estimated 75815 individuals have been infected in Wuhan” —> this is substantially higher than current reports or ~10k reports by China 🇨🇳 media. (75k estimate from above Lancet article)

        people say that it's "horrifying" but it actually makes so much sense. those people are recovering because of their body and their system not because a specific medicine is given to them. just because your cold is gone, doesn't mean you won't catch it again

        That is true with many viruses. I am oversimplifying. Viruses mutate. So you are not getting infected by the exact same pathogen as you did the first time. Look at influenza for example. I am not minimizing how serious this virus is. Every precaution should be taken.
