scenario: until there is an actual vaccine, it will not actually "go away" in a degree large enough to fully reopen public businesses

let alone sports.  as much as Trump will want to declare this OVER! on May 1st (or July 4th or whatever bull**** arbitrary date he comes up with next) the next 12-18 months is likely to be a slow-motion recession or depression, depending on what the coordinated national public health response is

the only way to restore the economy to full health is to impose a massive South Korean-level testing and tracing regime, with isolation of detected cases as soon as they are identified.  the shut down is just to buy us time to take those steps and keep the surge in cases from overwhelming the health care system's capacity

without the federal public health response that situation demands, the economy just staggers along from crisis to crisis -- and a possible predicted resurgence in the fall that erases whatever gains it might make over the summer

the reason Joe swamped Bernie in the primaries when voters actually voted is the same suburban surge that fueled the 2018 midterms joe exotic Apr 08, 13:19

that was all pre-COVID. the GOP seizes every opportunity to suppress the Democratic vote, including the pandemic Moviesnob Apr 08, 14:39

like, as bad as Italy and Spain were, national lockdowns appear to have halted their spread. US is still rocketing upwards joe exotic Apr 08, 14:23

that graph you're using says the US is "rocketing" is because it doesnt normalize for population. Moviesnob Apr 08, 14:44

the only people who will believe that will be the trump voters that believe it when he says water isnt wet. {nm} Moviesnob Apr 08, 14:40
