This should alarm all of us.
We will never get to “zero”.
And if we did declare success in eradicating coronavirus, what of other virus and illnesses? Was this whole thing a dress rehearsal for government to assume dictatorial powers over us in perpetuity? There will always be some virus or illness going around. Are we going to go through this all over again the next time there is a virus going around?

With all due respect, we’re already well beyond the dress rehearsal in this country. Pretty much everything you can think of is now taxed, regulated or controlled by government at some level. Moreover, the congress has abdicated its role of legislating to the Judicial Branch. We are ruled by the dictatorial powers of the robes and bureaucrats.
“Are we going to go through this all over again the next time there is a virus going around?”
If there is a Republican president and it’s an election year, then yes.
