[quote=Anonymous]Do you realize that there might never be a vaccine? They are testing vaccines. However, that does not mean they will work. Even if one of these vaccines works, it might be 18-24 months before it is available. More damage than good will happen if everyone stays home for that amount of time. The plan was never for everyone to stay home for ever. It was to flatten the curve and allow hospitals not to become overwhelmed. Now, it's time to SLOWLY return to normal. Eventually, we will reach heard immunity.

[quote=Anonymous]There CANNOT be a reopening without a vaccine. Period. End of discussion.

All reopening will do is move the “spike” in deaths that we’ve postponed by staying closed to sometime 2-4 weeks after reopening happens. The spike that we would’ve seen in late March will just happen several weeks after whenever reopening occurs. There cannot be a reopening. Period. Not until a vaccine is ready and most people have been vaccinated.

If a vaccine isn’t available, then a reopening can happen AFTER the election, when drumpf is defeated. But only then.
