A full shutdown for 2 weeks will just delay what’s gonna eventually happen. The virus is only gonna go away after we have enough healthy people that have been infected with it and develop immunity. Flattening then curve isn’t about lessening the cases per say. Just spreading them out over longer period of time so hospitals can handle it more efficiently and not be overwhelmed. The measures most state’s are using is perfect. Won’t overload hospitals but won’t stretch this out excessively.

Was I seeing where they can study that immunity for cure?

Americans will not suffer a shelter in place for much longer than 2 weeks. After that we will simply start to ignore the government. Fauci & Co. have 12 days to figure out how to stop this thing or a tsunami of public disobedience will begin.

People are not going to voluntarily destroy themselves, they will figure the risks are worth it.

I have clients who are in this group. Their options are to stay closed and file bankruptcy or defy the “law” and open up. I give it until April 13. If restrictions are not eased, people will start to try and go back to their ordinary life.

And what happens when the government decides 2 weeks isn’t enough and they extend it another two weeks? Are we going to spend another trillion for another stimulus?
When does it end?

Not really sure. But a virus has to have to host and then spread to another before the first host fights it off. If we get enough people with some immunity to this thing it will have a hard time spreading.

I think the worst part for me is feeling like it is inevitable and I'm jist passing the days until then. The unknown is the worst part for me but hopefully it stays that way.

This is why it is imperative to have boots in Wuhan and every other province in China that has been infected. Commie Xi seems against it. In order for the US to have any sort of timeline for normalcy, we need to know of if there is a resistance built up by Chinese Flu victims

Italy thought the same way.

The 2 weeks has been extended.

How ironic will it be when people who have lost everything will end up committing suicide at rates much higher than people that die from Covid-19?

Why the hell is that necessary? Cant the vulnerable shelter in place and the rest of us get the frick to work like we should be. I am smart enough to stay away from any vulnerable family members until either this dies down or they are able to get vaccinated at some point. I am a nurse so avoiding it really isn't an option for me.
