When is this all expected to be over?
« on: March 15, 2020, 02:22:43 PM »
I heard China is slowly reopening things as there casss are dwindling and the president said that we could be in the clear by June. I’m okay with being quarantined I just need to know how long.

China also welded people's front doors closed. Not sure there's lessons there for us.

Can you rationally explain why cases drop? And why it won't jump back up if everything reopens

If everyone was quarantined for 2 weeks then the spread would stop.

Also, please don't overlook news today of reinfection of a 40 year old woman in Japan, after several reports of reinfections in China.

Things will eventually get better, but it is reasonable to expect them to get worse first. It is anyone's guess when the tide will be turned, and even after turning the tide, it is a process to get back to "normal". (or will we now really see the "new normal"?)
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Stop with the not believing China. I get it. But I do believe the major corporations that have now all reopened in China but are closing in the US. They are the proof. Not the Govt.
