These cases always seem to be in hospitals as opposed to those with mild symptoms or no symptoms which aren't getting recorded

Or the large number of those ill at home and not tested not being reported.  Are you trying to downplay the significance?  What's the point??

All the cases quoted recently seem to go to hospital where we know only a small proportion need to go to hospital so basically under reporting of cases, maybe if they said that Thailand has significantly higher numbers, same as UK has done

If you get infected, have mild syptoms and then get over it - can you still infect despite recovered?

 

And are you inmune from it then afterwards?

 

I guess it's the question/s  needs answering.

once cleared you are no longer infectious 

 

yes you will have a high level of resistance unless the virus mutates significantly

Like any SARS, corona viruses once you have recovered from it, it means your body has fought and won against the infection, built an immunity to it - the virus is dead. Your immune system knows how to repel it.  I am not sure though if you encounter a mutated version of COVID19 if your body can repel that, or perhaps adapt faster to it.  That's what I have read so far.  

It is not like HIV.  It is mostly usually curable by your own body's immune system.  Some will die as pneumonia gets them. Usually elderly and with comorbid conditions.

What a load of trash,I stated in earlier thread (halted) that re-infection was a more deadly threat than first time around

  Also that statement from health minister Handcock,re Nadine Dorries being cured was a total fantasy,she is now more of a threat of death than before.

   Not furthering this,but the other animal virus proved how wrong statements of a cure are.  Will be up and coming flavour of the month ,the re-infection rates

    

 

"Cases of cured patients getting reinfected have emerged from Hubei and Sichuan provinces and have been documented by Chinese health authorities. To date about 72 such cases have been properly documented according to Chinese authorities.
 
Chinese physicians sounding the alarm on the coronavirus say the illness could be even deadlier for patients who catch it again.
 
“It’s highly possible to get infected a second time,” said one doctor.
 
The physician said that some of the antiviral medications used to treat the virus can have negative side effects on patients’ heart tissue, making them more susceptible to cardiac arrest"  .........also brain damage.
