If anyone hasnt seen Chernobyl yet on HBO its a great watch.

I feel like I am having repeated conversations with Dyatlov that the RBMK reactor exploded, only to be told it can't explode and that I am an idiot.

Leadership at work has also mentioned that if they catch staff stealing PPE to take home they may face consequences.

I have a fully booked trip to Japan in November that I booked before this was even 5 people sick in China.

Just hanging on and hoping we're back to sanity by then.

Probably won't be crowded either which is a bonus.

So what’s the long-term answer to this?

More hospital capacity
Vaccine
More rigorous hygiene reminders
More importance given to social distancing (more work from home, keeping tables further apart in restaurants, etc)
More protective measures for elderly and those with certain conditions?

Besides the above life goes back to normal?

These two... If you travel through Asia, you’ll notice its a year round thing to see masks and be temp checked upon arriving into the country. They are vigilant about it, maybe people here will start becoming the same.

On the topic of reinfection...

LINK
quote:

The longitudinal tracking of re-exposure after the disappeared symptoms of the SARS-CoV-2-infected monkeys was performed in this study. We found that weight loss in some monkeys, viral replication mainly in nose, pharynx, lung and gut, as well as moderate interstitial pneumonia at 7 days post-infection (dpi) were clearly observed in rhesus monkeys after the primary infection. After the symptoms were alleviated and the specific antibody tested positively, the half of infected monkeys were rechallenged with the same dose of SARS-CoV-2 strain. Notably, neither viral loads in nasopharyngeal and anal swabs along timeline nor viral replication in all primary tissue compartments at 5 days post-reinfection (dpr) was found in re-exposed monkeys. Combined with the follow-up virologic, radiological and pathological findings, the monkeys with re-exposure showed no recurrence of COVID-19, similarly to the infected monkey without rechallenge. Taken together, our results indicated that the primary SARS-CoV-2 infection could protect from subsequent exposures, which have the reference of prognosis of the disease and vital implications for vaccine design.


tldr: they tried to reinfect monkeys and it was unsuccessful.

Any talk of reinfection is not consistent with commonly accepted knowledge and likely fear mongering.
