You're only assuming that immunity is possible.

As the experts don't know this yet, it would be irresponsible of the general public to make this assumption.

(especially when the rate of mutation is taken into consideration)

People are recovering because their immune system learns and remembers how to fight it. I'd at least assume our immune system would behave as its programmed to with this virus, before jumping to opposite conclusion

Also, if immunity isn't possible we'd see mass reports of people who recovered months ago getting it again, since this has been around mid November
