COVID is never going away. It's time to get back to the old normal.

Well, your republican president thought it all would go away in summer.

But the democrat president to come, will bring a vaccine he developed. It will be available in all states who voted for him.

Sorry you are out of luck, buddy.

I heard Biden designed the mRNA himself.

At least he knows what RNA is.... Trump..... not so much

100,000+ new cases each of last 4 days. The spread is nearly unstoppable now. We only slowed it without stopping it back in March and April with only a few dozen cases. Now it literally is unstoppable without a vaccine with that many new cases a day

The old school was awful. You must be new here as there was a thread bashing schools, teachers, coaches, etc. at least weekly. Perhaps education should change and transform into something better.

And sports aren’t a right. I enjoyed it in HS but frankly football ruined HS sports. Too much money is spent, push it to club & private coaching.

He developed??? Not at all. Pfizer did not join Operation Warp Speed. So what you write is falsified.

If they continue doing this next year I will go to a private school or out of county. This is such BS.[/quote]

This 'idiocy' is happening all over the world. But since you are so sure, why don't you write a paper to a scientific journal. It will calm your mind and you will be a scientific rising star.

Absolutely agree...

On our way to herd immunity!

Seriously though, a vaccine is imminent.

My kids are in school physically, playing team sports, and I’m staying at a nice beach resort this weekend for my wedding anniversary. Have reservations for dinner Friday and Saturday, and will be lounging at the pool or beach most of the weekend after I get a run in.

Other than wearing a mask in the lobby, it’s pretty “old normal” for me.

Wait a month or two.

National lockdown coming

If there had been a Democrat President during this time of COVID-19, and that President dropped the ball so badly on managing it as Trump has done, the religious right would say the virus came from God to push the evil Democrat President out.

Because the narrative was decided upon long ago?

Lock us in and blame us for why they have to do it. Lots of the suckers will not only buy it but then enforce it as if it was their own idea

........they wanna take our guns, open borders, lock us down forever blah blah blah.

If we were all a bit more careful, then lockdowns and other restrictions wouldn't be required. So, really, this is all your fault buddy,

It was never stoppable. It was circulating in the US for months before we even knew it existed. There’s a tiny window to stop something with an R0 this high, and it was closed well before March.

All efforts to stop it since then (excluding vaccine development) have been pointless exercises in futility. Sweden got it right: admit that there’s nothing you can do in the short term and get on with life.

My whole family has it at the moment. Worst symptoms are a mild fever. It’s really not so bad.

COVID free, baby. Or maybe I already got it and didn’t realize it because it barely affects most healthy people like me.

Stay locked up if you want. You don’t need the government to tell you to do that.

I sincerely think if Biden tried a European style lockdown in the US the protests that followed would make the Euro protests look like child’s play.

The American population has been shown recently to a) not like being told what to do and b) is very heavily armed when compared to Europeans.

No we would not.

Masks work:

USA: over 100k new cases a day

Pop: ~330 mil

South Korea: under 100 cases a day.

Pop: ~50 mill
