The lack of a national plan also has hurt us. Trump is treating the U.S as 50 independent countries instead of ONE NATION which is unfortunate. I hope for better days but I have a feeling June isn’t going to be so great this year and I give in person school for kids in NY in September a 50-50 chance at best, which is very upsetting to me. Remote learning may teach the academics, but its goimg to have serious consequences for kids development and those are years we cannot get back . The fact that the class of 2020 will leave High School without the experiences of April, May, or June of their senior year is really terrible..there is no sugar coating that ..graduation from high school was a sentinel moment in life that shaped who we are.

My gut tells me this virus will NEVER be eliminated and as soon as things open, it will in fact triple triple the cases. Unless the number is zero, this is an inevitable fact..the eradication of this virus is no longer an option without a vaccine, and there is no guarantee there will ever be a vaccine. If there is a 99.4 % survival rate what I am saying losing 0.6% of the population is a HORRIFIC AND NAUSEATING thought, but I am not sure there is another option unless the social distancing is a permanent way of life, meaning things like broadway shows never occur again OR we accept a 99.4% survival rate and allow people to carefully resume some activities and allow those who do not accept the risk to stay home. My point is I don’t think a vaccine is now a foregone conclusion, so I have yet to hear a plan B. Stay home until WHEN ? WHEN its safe ?? It will never be safe

Well, what’s too early or too late to reopen? Science says it’s a deferment in mortality. The mortality will happen either way. Now or later, as SARS-Cov2 is not going away. Question is, do we also kill the entire economy while deferring , or begin the 4 phases like here in Cali? We’re in phase 2 here.
Any country loosening restrictions will experience spikes. Whether it’s now, or in 4 months or a year.

Most people probably knew this in the back of their mind but it is shocking to hear it. I guess this is going to be like all the other disease we already live with just much worse. But the other thing is we are going to have to get back to living again with the risk. People are starving and don’t know how they are going to pay their bills. A lot more people are going to die too. This is real bad news to read.

Just a side-thought……..

Soon after it became clear that WE (man-kind) have Never experienced such a highly contagious and deadly viral pandemic like THIS before..I expressed to my family and close friends that I thought this virus is perhaps the most “insidious” virus of them all because it seems to be the most “intelligent” virus of them all.

And I’m shook to my core because I know that, as a society, America AIN’T nearly who WE used to be. One need only look at who sits in the White House to know that WE.Have.Fallen. waaaay down.

No intelligent, informed and proud society would ever have even allowed such a person to get anywhere near the most powerful position in the land…let alone the world.
