This group of people, they say, \u201c<strong>can\nno longer be infected with SARS-CoV-2<\/strong>,\u201d as the virus is known to\nscientists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, from the result of their blood survey, the German\nteam estimated the death rate in the municipality at 0.37% overall, a figure\nsignificantly lower than what\u2019s shown on a dashboard maintained by Johns\nHopkins, where the death rate in Germany among reported cases is 2%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As explained the difference in the calculations boils down to\nhow many people are actually infected but haven\u2019t been counted because they\nhave mild or no symptoms. The presence of previously infected people in the\ncommunity, will reduce the speed at which the virus can move in the area. They\nalso outline a process by which social distancing can be slowly unwound,\nespecially given hygienic measures, like handwashing, and isolating and\ntracking the sick. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They think if people avoid getting big doses of the virus\u2014which can happen in hospitals or via close contact with someone infected\u2014fewer people will become severely ill, \u201cwhile at the same time developing immunity\u201d that can help finally end the outbreak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3.) <strong><em>Indian Technology Helps in Hacking Corona<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Technology will undoubtedly be crucial in the fight against\nCovid-19. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;India, thus\nneeds to quickly identify workable solutions from among those proposed by tech\ncompanies, and aspiring technologists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.legendshub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/indiaair1-jumbo-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-438\" width=\"585\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.legendshub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/indiaair1-jumbo-2.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.legendshub.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/indiaair1-jumbo-2-300x117.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/><figcaption>Caronavirus in India<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Big Bang Boom has designed a remotely\noperable ventilator system built from consumer durable components.
