    A huge thanks to the experts who helped us on short notice with the video. Especially “Our World in Data”, the online publication for research and data on the world’s largest problems - and how to make progress solving them. Check out their site. It also includes a constantly updated page on the Corona Pandemic.
    In December 2019 the Chinese authorities notified the world that a virus was spreading through their communities. In the following months it spread to other countries, with cases doubling within days. This virus is the “Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus 2”, that causes the disease called COVID19, and that everyone simply calls Coronavirus.
    What actually happens when it infects a human and what should we all do?

    Phew. That might have been the fastest we ever made a video. Literally working day and night. A huge challenge in talking about Corona was that the science is ongoing. So we put in extra special care to have good sources for this video and will update them in the coming weeks and months. Check them out here: sites.google.com/view/sourcescorona
    We could not have made this video without experts who took time in one of the busiest periods of their own careers. A huge thanks especially to Dr James Gurney and Dr Max Roser of Our World in Data for helping us make sure the video was as accurate as it could be in a situation that is changing daily.
    Also a big shoutout to ourworldindata.org/ - the online publication for research and data on the world’s largest problems - and how to make progress solving them. Check out their site. It also includes a constantly updated page on the Corona Pandemic. Working together with them over the years has been a delight.

    Caught covid for the first time this month and as an immunocompromised person it was scary. Luckily I was able to get Paxlovid which is a medication given to those at a high risk of developing severe illness and makes it so covid can’t replicate inside your body. If it wasn’t for the medication I would have ended up in the hospital even though I’m fully vaccinated. After being so sick even with medication and vaccines it makes everything I went through in the beginning of the pandemic worth it. I didn’t leave my house for months, only having contact with my immediate family, I suffered extreme depression and isolation, I missed my high school graduation, and I lost friends over them not taking things seriously. But had I caught covid before I was vaccinated, before medications were available, and while the healthcare system was at the brink of collapse I without a doubt would have died. It’s good to know that everything I sacrificed saved me

    I just got tested positive for it. My throat is sore, I have a runny nose, pressure in my lymph nodes and ears, a headache and fatigue. For me the flu was worse last time I had it. But I’m also only on day 2 or 3. It started as headache, then a cough and now today I have the symptoms I described. This is not fun to have, get vaccinated if you can.
    edit: after about 5 days I’m finished with it. I still have an occasional cough, but nothing else.
    Edit 2: My taste was also affected for about a week or two after. Things that would normally taste sweet tasted like metal. Salty foods tasted bitter. Savory foods seemed cold for some reason. Weird how it messes your taste up super bad.

      Major U.S cities have been fudging their stats to gain additional federal relief funding since C-19 hit the U.S. That skews the U.S data being fed to the CDC.
      N Italy had a massive elderly population and China obviously aren't reporting their true stats to this day.
      Inbetween we've allowed massive protests and full blown riots for weeks with nobody saying a word about how that affects any infection data.
      No politician is willing to admit that we have assuredly killed a large part of the global economy and we still:
      A. Don't know exactly how C-19 compares with Seasonal flu or SARS and likely never will.
      B. Haven't stopped the spread and most likely can't actually slow it down or stop it until we have a vaccine.
      Sweden is now reporting a huge drop in infections despite not locking down at all and apear to have achieved at least the beginning of herd immunity.
      We do now the avg age of C-19 death in the U.S is 80 and that's with the skewed data.
      So from an academic standpoint, we know sweet f*ckall about the actual infection/death rate but have slaughtered the global economy.

    Uploaded March 19, 2020. If there was one day I saw as an oh-shit moment, this was probably it. This was the day I took the bus over to the university campus, and found the libraries and classroom buildings closed. At that time, the bus service went to the weekend schedule through the whole week. Things were really gummed up for about the next four months.
    TTTT I was one of the lucky ones (maybe, in part, one of the careful ones, I like to think). Got the shot and boosters when they appeared and were recommended, kept my distance from others, wore masks but TTTT only when mandated, and did more or less all right. Eventually, about three years from Oh Shit Day, a couple of days of feeling miserable, and a positive Covid test. Oddly, no respiratory sx, even though there had been a few times, in the year or two preceding, with various respiratory sx but Covid test showing negative.
    The good news: We can mostly look forward toward the Future. The bad news: The Future is far from certain. Another pandemic could occur at any time, and godonlyknows how that might be handled.

      The media only wants viewers and their viewers are the average person. Kurzgesagt viewers are intelligent and understand things that are not incredibly oversimplified. Kurzgesagt oversimplify stuff but not to the degree the mainstream media does because if the mainstream media simplified it that much their viewers wouldn't understand what they're talking about. Also Kurzgesagt isn't pushing an agenda what's takes 90% of the content out of the video so we end up with an 8 minute video that has great animation and actually informs people.

They can still work in parallel - if two people each spend 5 hours on a clip, it will take 5 hours, but cumulatively they will have spent 10hrs.

    I’m glad our paths were chosen as a slow pandemic, I mean most of us kids would be happy to be at home playing games or what not but a slow pandemic is a better future that is really good for our future. Whatever pandemic comes next, we will always find a way to fight it.

    I’d say the fast vs slow pandemic depended on where you were. In some states, it’s the lockdowns that will be more remembered while the course of infection itself was high, was not devastating.
    In other states, it was treated less seriously and entire families were wiped out.

      It's possible.
      In New Jersey 7 people got it, and 4 died.
      So how did a disease with less than a 1% death rate kill over half?
      Oh, and that less than 1% death rate, isn't an accurate count when comparing to things like the 10% death rate of the (American) Spanish flu.
      The only people who had the flu were those who were actually sick. The flu test wasn't invented till the 1950s.
      We have the ability to know who has it when they aren't sick.
      You compare Spanish flu with Covid based on those who are sick, and the death rate goes way up for Covid.

      ​@@redpillsatori3020 because Covid deaths are discounted by authorities to show their efficiency in fighting it, a person who died from covid is recorded dead because of their other ailments and covid is hidden in the back of the drawer. If one member in a house gets infected, then that entire house gets infected. That 1% mortality rate is not true, Covid can become fatal for ages 30+ and will give a confirmed kill or lifetime disability on a person of age 60+. The reality is that in New Delhi every house lost one seat on the table. Someone died in nearly every house because of Covid, I myself lost my Grandfather to covid and the funeral is a horror show, they don't even let you see the body its all wrapped up in plastic covering, you wear covid protection plastic gear clothes to do the final rights of your loved one.
