[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What happens if the number of cases/deaths go back up? Back to SIP? [/quote] [b]Yes. If/When a second wave hits, then there will be a second sheltering in place. Or a third wave.[/b][/quote] No there won't be another sheltering in place. People won't tolerate it anymore. [/quote] I actually think this is true. I was one of the people taking earliest precautions. I pulled my kids out of school before DC, Maryland, or Virginia shut down (I'm in Virginia). Bought a bunch of N95s, started ordering groceries. We literally have not been anywhere other than absolutely critical doctors appointments and I was 100% fully invested in locking down. We also have plenty of money, so we've been ordering a lot of good food and my wife and I are both good cooks. But now, I've just basically had it. I can go through another month or whatever but I am NOT doing this all summer. And I'll be damned if I'm going to go through it all over again. Not just because our supply chain is so obviously broken in so many critical ways (chicken and pork shortages AGAIN now, still no TP), but also because our schools are obviously failures and our kids can't learn and even more importantly it is literally destroying large segments of economy and country. I'll be one of the ones out protesting if they try to shut down again. I'm sorry, but millions of people die every year in the US from various causes, and now that I've seen the pain and destruction that lockdowns cause to EVERYONE, a few tens or hundreds of thousands of those annual deaths will just have to be ushered on by COVID.[/quote] No one thought we would ever close schools or shelter in place here. We did. And we'll do it again.[/quote]
