Of course. And I think that's huge issue.

Always need an endgame.
Open ended things are always a disaster.

What happens if they reopen everything and this virus takes a second swing on society?



I would Think this is gonna happen regardless. Whether it be this year or next. Are we gonna shut everything down every time this thing pops up?

The measures being taken are not to stop the spread. We cant. It's to slow it down so not everyone comes down with it at once and overloads the healthcare system.



Doesn’t seem like everyone is coming down with it anyway. Also appears most who do are simply staying home as only those with breathing problems are getting admitted to the hospital. It begs the question as to why this is so horrible a bug if not everyone gets the worst case scenario.

decides the curve (whatever the hell that is) is doing what the anticipated. Issue an announcement to reopen everything. Does society still not buy the BS and continue to hunker down/accuse the government of not being truthful?


People are already tired of being at home...

Belief isn't the issue...needs are

People will rush back

According to the OT, society is a 4 year old.

Goes out when told to shelter in place.

Shelters in place when told it’s okay to go out.

The beauty of a free press and private enterprise is that the truth always comes out. If Dear Leader tries to stand up and say everything is contained and safe while experts and media are reporting we've yet to peak, well yeah, people will stay home.
You're so fricking stupid.

I really don't understand the curve. It all started with one person, so that's all it takes to infect again. Makes me believe this is all bullshite.


Last week, I saw one of the medical guys (I think it was Fauci) saying that what would happen even if people actually cooperate and distance is a series of hills and valleys. What they are trying to achieve is keeping each hill below the hospital capacity line. Notice they keep saying 'flatten the curve.' A lot of people will end up getting it, just hopefully not all at the same time.

People aren't "hunkering down" now. Why would they do it once they lift the orders?

I should've phrased that better. Not everyone will come down with serious symptoms that require hospitalization. Our leaders were however warned that enough will and that number will overload our healthcare system if suppression measures are not taken. As far as how horrible it is well I guess that depends on your definition of horrible.
