The oft-quoted "thin veneer of civilization" is stretched thin and tight, it won't hold as long as many think it will before it tears apart. Every time it's happened before, it's always sooner than most people expect - we'll be no different.

This post really shows the stupidity and lack of common sense in some of you.
As if we’re all going to be stuck at home for 18 months with little to no new income.

The only thing preventing a return to normalcy is the economy. The virus will be conquered eventually by either vaccine or treatment. I don’t get when people talk about a new normal as being permanent.

Some people (including myself) believe the huge government overreach and knee-jerk reaction to this situation will become SOP in future crises.

If I had to guess, they will relax the restrictions for a few months starting in July, and then we will go back to these restrictions until the middle of the following spring. At that point we will then have a vaccine and more treatment options.
You people are out of your fricking minds

Exactly. There's going to have to be a reckoning on this timeframe and my bet is it will be sooner than later.

People wanted to say "screw it all" three weeks ago. You see where that's gotten us. Sorry if people sick and dying and out of work is an inconvenience. When young people start dying... and they will...maybe things will change.

exactly, we're killing the economy for a virus that kills elderly with underlying medical conditions. isolate them
1. Isolating them is not easy, especially when asymptomatic people think they are fine but are, in fact, spreading the disease.
2. Do you have data on how many people who require critical care and survive are elderly with underlying medical issues? Because the overwhelming of our health system is what we're trying to prevent. If our critical care facilities are overrun, then people other than COVID-19 patients health, and possibly lives, will be compromised or at risk.
I don't know the answer TBH but we need to figure out some way to mitigate the risks without killing businesses. I have an 84 year old mother who is simply staying home and avoiding contact with folks in general. I also have a 3 year old grandson with asthma and respiratory issues so I want all you virus carrying SOBs to be kept away from him but I don't want you going out of business because he'll need a job some day. I am avoiding both of them for the time being, at 58 and fat with high blood pressure I'm probably in the at risk category.

They already are and have been every flu season. The problem is the news will be flashing it across the ticker non-stop when in years before, it was just a fact of life.

On a personal level I’m already kind of over the medical part of it. The economic part still scares the shite out of me.

Swine flu took the lives of almost 2,000 small children.

I think the markets will start to rebound quickly when everything starts opening up here soon hopefully. We can't afford a shutdown for months on in but that isn't going to happen.
I believe the markets were reacting more to the world shutting down than the virus itself.

The markets crashed because the experts were going on national television telling people to go home or you’ll die

This. People aren’t being realistic. If the numbers don’t start increasing drastically, like hundreds of thousands infected, then things will start to open back up by mid to late April

I don't know, but when it does, I'm having one of those Darius Guice parties!
