      Some would get better and unfortunately some might not. However, being around other people with corona virus wouldn’t affect them. The virus leaves a person when their immune system learns to fight it off. It doesn’t need go into another person for this to happen, so having healthy people around them won’t make a difference. It just makes it more likely for the disease to spread to the people without it.

      The ones who manage to fight off the virus, whether alone or with the help of medicine would get better, and probably will not catch it again from the people in their close vicinity. Unfortunately some of the infected people would not be able to fight the disease off.
