No. It will be endemic. But that does not mean it will be a pandemic forever. It won’t. There is some seriously distorted thinking going on. Life will return to mostly normal after a period of time. There will probably be some holdovers. Hopefully people staying home when sick and wearing masks when contagious. [/quote]

This is certainly right, and I hope your holdover estimates are correct.  I've always been the type of go about my daily life when sick before, and I plan to change that.  Hopefully workplaces will become more flexible with WFH when people (or their kids) are under the weather. And I'd like to see this normalize wearing a mask when people need to travel, work, etc. with minor illnesses if staying home isn't practical.

But the bars and restaurants will reopen.  We will all take great vacations in 2022.  Big, rowdy weddings will come back.  Schools and camps and kids' sports will happen again.

Previous generations saw wars, recessions, illnesses, etc.  Sometimes they severely affected daily life.  So people changed habits for the greater good when needed, and once they were safely able to, returned to a more robust life.  (I am guessing we will be there within the next year, but of course the exact timeline will play out however it plays out).[/quote]
