(3,528 posts)The arts will suffer. Sporting events will be TV only for some time. Travel will be hindered.
We will see more telecommuting, online shopping, and virtual non-contact relationships.
Normal can not be attained until a reliable, safe vaccine is available....outside of the corporate pharma structure. The rich will die too if the poor are vectors for the virus.
I remember lining up at the fire station to get the Sabin vaccine (sugar cube) to protect against polio. Hundreds lined up on a Sunday afternoon.
I hope our technology can accelerate the process to get a safe vaccine to the masses. I also hope that the consequences for those who refuse to take it (without a valid health concern) are severe.
If someone's convictions tell them that they have a right to crap in the water supply, society would not tolerate their actions. Someone refusing to cooperate in protecting the masses through vaccination deserves severe sanction.
