Just wondering business as usual?
- Thread starter Finewine60
- Start date
The same ones who buy up all the healthcare products so those who really need them can't get them.
It should NOT be business as usual - just play it safe for a few weeks, then we can slowly get back to normal.
yeah no shit, eh
And if anyone around here actually believes the CCP data claiming China has "flattened the curve" please get in touch with me, I have a bridge to sell you.
I’m not gonna say I hope I’m wrong as we need to do whatever it takes to curb the spread of this filthy disease. Just got info from a fed gov employee. A full scale lockdown like we are seeing in the state of Cal and NY is coming and will be in the 5-8week range . U may ask why we not doing it now and following suit like some US states. Was told they have been easing us into it the last few days. And hey I have no problem with people disagreeing or hating on me LoL. I just wanted to pass along what I was told from a credible source . And as the American state lockdowns the same what is deemed essential services will remain open or at work ie police 1st responders the railways , trucking etc. Pharmacy’s and grocery’s stores hrs will be reduced to something along the 8am -4pm range. Shits getting real. Stay safe everybody

6 to 8 weeks minimum, and a very slow return to a new normal. Not like the old normal.
Many businesses and individuals will be ruined. The financial consequences will take years to rectify.
The residual effects of the sickness will make many unable to work like before.

Eventually most people will come into contact with the virus, no matter how careful society is. That might take a month or two.
My estimate is based on that, plus the two week period for the disease to develop.
There are a lot more stupid and irresponsible people around than I thought, so the spread will be very difficult to manage.

You should never underestimate how many stupid and irresponsible people there are. Daily life should confirm the astounding number of them.
I’m not gonna disagree with u , but I hope it’s sooner. But being minimum a year away from a vaccine it’s not looking good. And I think ur handle name pretty much sums its up. “UhOh” ��
Hopefully I am just repeating something everyone understands.
Social distancing is not expected to reduce infections. It is only expected to delay them so the curve is flattened and the hospitals can cope. That means smaller numbers over a longer time. Last I recall the expectation is that 30 to 80 % of the population will contract covid-19 before there is a vaccine. We won't know what is really happening until the antibody blood test is readily available and everyone can be tested to see who HAS had the disease. The current test only responds to the presence of live virus.
