look here man I want to be on the side of critical science but let’s get one thing straight...this virus is neither going to be stamped out nor is it “going away”. It is a fact of life from here on out until (if needed or even possible) there is a universal vaccine.

currently there are zero vaccines for any Coronavirus nor any rinovirus. The reason for that is maybe, just maybe, there won’t ever be one. Not everything in the natural world is available to be controlled or eliminated by naked apes.

if you are suggesting that the current state of affairs be extended indefinitely until there is a vaccine or it “disappears” you will be waiting a long time, perhaps forever.

common sense precautions are needed and necessary. Otherwise we need to move on
