Ive read that there's been cases of it returning bCk in cured patients. 

from what I read it just showed up again in trace amounts in cured patients days after they stopped using anti-viral meds indicating that the anti-virals actually suppress the activity of the virus, but also that cured people have a low chance to infect others for a while after feeling fit again (like the researchers expected) as it takes the body quite a while to destroy all of them

Yes. It has been confirmed that people who recover from it develop the antigens to the coronavirus. It'll probably take 5 - 10 years of mutations for someone to be infected again, and even then there'll be some cross immunity, meaning it'll be harder to contract it and quicker to recover from it.

@Angelus above - South Korea probably had the best response of all countries so far. But the fact their testing isn't based on a proportional demographic sample and continues to find 1 - 2% of cases almost nearly randomly distributed around the country, with no known chain of transmission, should raise some flags of concern.
