In Reply to: Do you believe we can continue this lock down until a vaccine is available? posted by Rod M on May 10, 2020 at 07:51:26:
And if you read what I post every single day, you would know that I have never suggested that we do.
We are going to have to adapt to for a VERY long haul. There may be a toilet paper shortage but not (yet) a plexiglass shortage.
As long as our leaders continue to tell us THERE IS NO DANGER and THE DANGER WILL DISAPPEAR SOON no one, either in the private sector nor the government, will invest in the infrastructure required to safely open the country. Every closed factory should be undergoing a complete remodeling for a return to work at safe distances and they should be getting HUGE tax breaks for doing so.
We have three choices. Stay locked down, open up and try to 'go back to normal' as things were while watching a million or more die or...
Spend time, money, resources and most important, leadership at the top, restructuring our workplaces, our communities, churches our leisure actives to survive for the year or two it will take before we have a solution. Hopefully a vaccine and not 'herd immunity'.
Oh, and if we try to go 'back to normal' without HUGE changes in the way we go about our business with major restructuring of our work-places and people start dying again at the rate they did in New York, folks will go home, stay home and we WILL have a Great Depression and likely worse.
Of course it will cost money but we just spent $TRILLIONS$ doing NOTHING for the last two months all the while expecting the virus to just go away on its own.
First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
