It will pass but there is no aspect of our world that will be unchanged.
I have some definite theories on that, but its not an appropriate subject for out here beyond the trees.
Suffice to say, the changes you expect will be all for the good. I believe this flu is a deep state bio-weapon being used as a last ditch (?) effort by the derp state to stop Trump from stopping them. Not just in the US, but worldwide.
It's just another volley in the shadow war. I also believe that Trump will win. All the changes you seek will be the result of that victory. And all for the good.
