What's this?

My educated guess is that initial exposure concentration is significant

It seems intuitive that if you are exposed more to any kind of pathogen, it’s going to replicate faster and do more damage before your body can trigger a response. It’s why masks are so damn important.

At least 10x based on almost numerous studies. Likely a bit higher ** -- BocaHoo91 06/25/2020 08:43AM

If so hospitalization rate for working age is ~ 1.0% -- HiltonHeadHoo 06/25/2020 11:26AM

Death rates seems meaningful too. 2/3 of GA deaths are from age 70 and up. -- Hoodafan 06/25/2020 07:49AM

I still haven’t seen much on the effect viral load has on this -- MBHoo 06/24/2020 11:06PM

My educated guess is that initial exposure concentration is significant -- HoosGuy 06/24/2020 11:10PM

Why is that important? Anyone positive in any age group -- 111Balz 06/24/2020 10:28PM

Of course it matters to public policy... -- HiltonHeadHoo 06/24/2020 10:30PM

However, that would require 1. smart policy making based upon data and -- JohnHoo2 06/24/2020 11:01PM
