Young people are not invulnerable to COVID-19 and must help protect the elderly

No one's invulnerable. But even if you are doing very well, you have to be a very important part of our national effort to contain the outbreak but importantly to protect the young individuals. . . This isn't something that can be successful without you.

Recovering from the virus likely provides immunity for a prolonged period

For the most part once you're infected with a particular virus the next time you get exposed if you've recovered from that virus you're protected. . . You can have herd immunity, which means the virus doesn't have a lot of places to go because most of the people in the population are protected.

Developing a safe vaccine will take at least a year to a year and a half

Safety is paramount. . . We really are on a very very fast track to get a vaccine. But even on the fastest track, it's going to take a year to a year and a half.

Tylenol is the safest medication to take for reducing a fever caused by the virus

The safest thing to get your fever down is Tylenol. . . if you want to take Tylenol you really want to take it no more than every six hours.

The virus could potentially resolve within 8 to 10 weeks if mitigation is successful

In this case for China, it was somewhere between 8 and 10 weeks. That doesn't mean that we're going to have to be doing this for that long period of time... Hopefully if we really carefully and successfully implement these mitigation strategies... we may be able to cut that time down.

Gatherings should be limited to 10 or fewer people to stay safe during the pandemic

10 is the safer number. I would go with 10. . . don't deliberately go to a place with more than 10 people.
