Unsurprisingly, the key to any sort of recovery is testing.

Let’s hope that these cases of re-infection (and being infectious) are just a testing anomaly.  I have nightmares of new strains, etc.

Yeah, if it turns out that immunity is a pipe dream, we’re in a world of trouble.

All will be fine on Easter Sunday. The economy and normalcy will rise from the dead. Virus will be close to zero. #winning

So we were talking about when will it be safe to visit with my elderly parents again. Will we have to wait for a vaccine or wait for them to become infected? It could be 6 months or more... This is not a good situation. Am I going to have to do food drops for them while they live in isolation?

No easy answers, although if we had a competent federal response and a populace who would take it seriously enough to wear masks and gloves and, y’know, not party on the beach or take stupid virus challenges , maybe we’d be able to get back to something resembling a functional society this summer.

Speaking of normalcy , I was just thinking to myself - at what point does the handshake return? Is this the new norm? Does social distancing become the new norm or will it lax? Prior to the Rona we all typically maintained a culturally acceptable distance. At the grocery store I'd not stand right up on someone in line but not 6ft back either - more like 2 or 3. But even going into a job interview and not shaking anyone's hand it felt so.. odd.

I’m really hoping handshakes never come back. Too many men feel like it’s an opportunity to show off their commitment to spending time at the gym. The Japanese have it right: just bow/nod your head and move on.

The thing tha t hit me the hardest was when that Noymer dude basically said getting a vaccine before the end of the year would be a world record time. Remember that when anyone says anything about a vaccine. It’s delusional to think that that is going to fix this......

The article said if we have a vaccine by spring 2021 it will be a miracle, and the fastest a vaccine has ever been created........ so, yeah.

We don’t even have a vaccine for the corona virus that has been causing SARS outbreaks for the last  twenty years.

We can’t wear masks, the “experts” told us it was useless and worse than not wearing masks.
