I don’t think waiting until the vaccine arrives is a sustainable option, since the earliest possible time scale for a vaccine is next year. And there’s a non negligible chance that the vaccine is NEVER coming out, because we’ve been working on the vaccine for the common cold to no effect for decades. (This may be a sign that vaccines are better used for diseases that one only catches once.)
That said, several states are reopening, and the results are predictable. It looks like the key is going to be to try and find a good balance between how much we can actually go out with not fucking dying. I’m not too much of an expert, but the guidelines for a three-phase reopening the Trump Administration put out actually seem like a decent metric for once (at least for now). It’s a shame Trump himself doesn’t give a shit about his own fucking guidelines.
Why, yes, that does suck.
