[Biggirl]

One can hope.

[dynachrome]

We will return to normal as soon as senile Joe and whatever slug he nominates as his VP are elected by the brain dead voters. Because the scum media will yell everyday how he saved us from orangemandbad.

[Salman]

Permanently less free by bipartisan agreement.

[MrEdd]

Should have come here first. At Free Republic we're all experts.

“That’s one of the hardest questions to answer in epidemiology, and it’s one of the things that everybody is most interested in,” said Samuel Scarpino, an epidemiologist at Northeastern University. “We’re going to have to be very cautious because we don’t want to waste all the sacrifices that we’ve already made.”

It will not be over until the mainstream media and the democrat party say it is over. It was "flatten the curve", now it is "protect every life". Mayors and governors are drunk with power, and the media is hyperventilating. Russia collusion, Ukraine intervention, this time the media has hyped the wrong thing, and it will crash the economy, and make way for Bernie like politicians.

[umgud]

We’ll look back on this in 4-6 weeks.

[wny]

Normal is being redefined.

The first sign that the tide has started to turn, scientists say, will be a decline in new cases over several consecutive weeks, even as testing expands.

There will not be an economy at that point.

[MinorityRepublican]

Don’t listen to stupid experts. Today is day 7. We have 15 days. Then let’s gradually return to normal with precautions taken to protect our senior citizens and medically vulnerable.

[rockrr]

My bet is 2 weeks. In 2 more weeks people (LOTS of people) will be saying “enough is enough” and participation in the stay home business will diminish.

[central_va]

F the doctors. We may have to save ourselves from them.

[Hieronymus]

We’ll look back on this in 4-6 weeks.

And we may say “we dodged a bullet”

Or we may say “this is worse than I could have imagined”

Or we may say something else.

Or we may be dead

I think that about covers all the bases.

[3RIVRS]

As testing ramps up so will the positives. There will not be a decline for months if that happens.

[headstamp 2]

I’m already looking toward the next time this bullsh** happens.
Who the hell is going to go through this every few years now.

[lodi90]

MOst likely in 10 days (?) it will be two more weeks and that will be it. Anything longer than a month and the world financial system will crash.

[crz]

By Friday we will see the results. I believe that the meds sent to NY will show positive and by a week from Tuesday, restrictions will be reduced. Old folks homes will stay under restrictions, schools and hosptals, but the rest will be reduced.

Can NOT go on economically much longer the way we have.

Then comes the blame game. Will be interesting to hear what the Red Chinese come up for excuses for their failures to alert others about this.

It started at their bio-weapons lab, it got loose, they hid that fact, and now are pointing fingers at everyone but themselves.

[yldstrk]

I don’t know a single person with it.

[dfwgator]

Nobody knows. All is conjecture at this point.

[misanthrope]

This thing ain't even hardly begun it's spin up. In two weeks NYC will be a greusome catastrophe and SF will be hot on it's tail. Several other big Democrat strongholds will have begun their spin up as well.

The chloroquine thing might arrest it somewhat, we shall see.
