The faster it hits 100%, the closer we get to 0%. That isn't necessarily true. There have been numerous cases of people catching it more than once.

This virus is still unpredictable. They've actually detected some new mutations in last few weeks that is making treatment harder.

You're an idiot. Stop posting. From 4 days ago:

Shashikiran Umakanth, a clinical investigator of Covid-19 who has been involved in ICMR research projects, said the SARS-CoV-2 virus seems to be persisting in some individuals. “But after about a week or 10 days, we know it is no longer capable of spreading and causing infection in others. The commonly performed tests to diagnose Covid-19 can identify virus particles, but cannot decipher if these particles are live or inactivated,” he said.

Umakanth said there can be confusion if a recent Covid-19 recovery develops fever or cough due to some other viral infection. The dead particles of SARS-Cov-2 can then be detected via a test and interpreted as a case of reinfection even though those particles are ineffective.

No there have not. Again: There have been over 20 million people tested positive. There is about a 3% false positive rate. That means there are likely 600,000 people who thought they had COVID-19 BUT DID NOT. If 2% of those eventually caught COVID-19 that means there are 12,000 people who are CERTIFIED to have caught COVID-19 twice BUT THEY DID NOT.

This is a stupid myth that scientists do not believe is true.
