Are We Expecting A Second Wave Of Coronavirus by Wearabletech: 10:38am On May 24, 2020
In spite of the scare of a second wave of coronavirus infections, we have seen an ease of lockdown across different countries.

This, as expected, has been cheered by citizens. Schools are open in Serbia and Germany; restaurants and bars are open for business in Italy; Spanish football clubs began training in groups of 10 players; leagues are soon to resume.

We may enjoy this development but health officials are quick to warn of a second, likely more devastating wave of the outbreak.

At a media briefing, Dr. Mike Ryan, executive director of the World Health Organisation's Health Emergencies Program, warned that the virus might remain a constant presence. In his words, "This virus just may become another endemic virus in our communities and this virus may never go away. HIV hasn't gone away".

According to reports, about 5.1 million of the estimated 7.8 [1] million people in the universe have been infected. This means herd immunity is far from realisation. For COVID-19, herd immunity would mean over 80% of the population must have antibodies in order to provide any sort of protection for the remaining 20%.
