Message: [QUOTE="JimHurley, post: 3548981, member: 6008"] OK, 11 million is much different than 330 million. We just can't do that. It's not in the realm of possibility. 330 million tests? And what good is a one time test for everyone? You need way more than that. So, we're talking in the billions as far as number of tests. Again, just not possible. Testing is overrated if you cannot test every resident of your country regularly, which we will never ever be able to do. Right, nobody knows. That's the bottom line. I think the media has injected lots of unnecessary fear into this country. Because again, nobody knows. Experts can give you their opinions of their areas of expertise but it's an assumption at best. Anybody speaking factually regarding the future of this virus is lying. That's a very realistic scenario. If I was an employer I'd require my employees to wear a mask so the scenario you described is as least likely as possible to happen. Other than that, I'm not as sure. That's where it gets tricky. To the extremes, your wife could not go back to work but then you wouldn't be able to afford a living. She could also wait for cases to go down to near zero, but there's a good chance that may never happen. My cousin is a nurse who lives with her mom, who is 70. It's a real concern. My cousin works on a floor that has had patients with the virus. So it's similar to what you described. My cousin wears a mask around the house. It's unfortunate, but a part of life right now.
