Coronavirus : Infected don't get immunity.
Looks like every new information on this virus is making it worse. The latest being that : once infected and recovered, the survivor loses 75% of the antibody in two months and a third of the survivors test negative for any antibody after that time.
Implying they will get infected again if exposed. There's no *immunity* to talk about, which is in contrast to SARS and MERS which gave at least 1 year of immunity or more.
Study from China.

So live, as long as you are destined to live. The future looks bleak. I would be really surprised if anyone comes up with any effective vaccine in any reasonable time.

- Next, I would be rather waiting for confirmed re-infection news, rather than these theoretical studies to watch how much likely or unlikely that is. But news point to a bleak future anyway.
