Message: [QUOTE="Palatine, post: 3510831, member: 974"] Good point. We still do not have a vaccine for AIDS. Yet that epidemic has been normalized. Large scale testing and treatment should also play a large role in bringing the country back. What's normal will change in high risk communities. Nursing homes will different for sure. In 2017, over 7,700 died every day in the USA (CDC). On the worst days the virus has killed under 2,000 people a day. And the virus probably has eaten into the normal death rate. As the virus death rate falls, the health care system will return to a much more normal state (that should be in weeks). The larger country should return in fits and starts. There probably will be flare ups but the scale of these should be tiny compared to the pandemic (unless it's your community). [/QUOTE]
