“We have to continue to consider what it means to die from this virus...
Well since almost NO ONE does die of it except the old and/or sick, we don’t have to consider it too much.
We quarantine for a month and then stop acting like b.tches but take precautions.
My hope is we quarantine for a month, ease up, the summer months keep the spread low enough nobody panics, the old people keep protecting themselves, and the virus sweeps through the young population, without hardly anybody noticing, because 99.9% of the cases we are seeing in people under 30 are like the common cold.
Then in the fall, when we prep for an uptick, we don’t get one, because 20% of us are already “vaccinated”.
None of this will happen while we are in severe isolation, it won’t spread enough. Unless it already has a mutation that is so benign that people get it, spread it in their small circle, never notice it, and they spread it to their small circles.
Which is why I hope we do some random testing protocol in a month, to see what percentage of the population might have been exposed — except I think random testing only finds active cases, not whether someone already fought the disease and won.
