That was my own opinion based on what I’ve read as the pandemic has progressed. I haven’t seen anyone say it definitely doesn’t have a season. I hope and think it may slow some but I don’t think it’s going to behave like the flu.

Here’s the latest study I’ve seen.

“I hope and think it may slow some but I don’t think it’s going to behave like the flu.”

It’s definitely odd. Personally, I hope everyone gets it quickly so we can be done with it — whatever’s going to happen. (Is that what they call “herd immunity? I’m not sure.) If it’s as contagious as they say, everyone WILL get it eventually, so just rip off the proverbial bandage now so we can get on with America.

I understand that some people who get it won’t survive, but that happens with the regular flu, too. I say that as an at-risk person — over 70 with a history of pneumonia. To get the country going, I’m willing to take a risk. If we don’t take risks now, this thing will drag out for five years.
