A 25-year-old resident of Reno, Nevada was infected with the pandemic coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, two times, about 48-days apart, with the second infection causing a more severe case of COVID-19 than the first and requiring hospitalization and oxygen support.
That's according to a draft study, led by researchers at the University of Nevada and posted online. The study has not been published by a scientific journal and has not been peer-reviewed. Still, it drew quick attention from researchers, who have been examining data from the first confirmed case of a SARS-CoV-2 reinfection, reported earlier this week.

Amid the more than 24.5 million cases worldwide, it is completely expected to find some recovered patients who are not completely protected by their immune responses and are thus vulnerable to reinfection.The big question is: how common is this scenario?

And? Do you see it actually happening?

Hell yes I see it happening, if this fat orange sack of Oompa Loompa turds gets "elected" "again."

You should at least drop the hysterical bullshit within the confines of your own head, even if you feel the need to use it because your side otherwise can't even resonate enough with the public to beat the absolute worst presidential candidate in history to actually win the office. The only way for that to actually happen is for the Reps to get a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate. And retake the House. And convince the executive to go along with it.

That isn't hysteria you fool. Nothing is sacred, nothing is safe, and nothing can be taken for granted any longer, especially not if this asshole manages to get a second term in office.
You should be more concerned about yourself than me; you have an unhealthy lifestyle and no connections to other human beings who could or would care to help you in case everything goes to Hell, and you're stuck out in the ass end of the People's Republic of Incestistan. You are nowhere near as intelligent, canny, self-reliant, or cunning as you like to think you are, and the kind of chaos a second Trump term would cause will kill you.

A party without better approval ratings than the Rs have taking the House is pretty unlikely, even given the current approval ratings of the Ds. Getting 67 seats in the Senate is just mathematically impossible without assassinations to free up more than the 12 seats held by Democrats that are up for reelection this year. So, yeah, you're saying the sky is falling when it's clearly not.
It's so sweet you worry about me. We should go fishing together sometime.

That's an idea, but I can't imagine any fish would want a bite out of you...and considering what catfish eat, *that* is saying something.
