A friend of mine told me that even a vaccine won't be very helpful, since the virus is likely to mutate and render such a vaccine useless. We will be socially distancing for many years to come.
Then they'e got to figure something else out because there is no point in living longer if you make everyone miserable. There's no point in living to be eighty if you're just going to spend your whole life alone in a room with your only link to the outside world being a screen.
If I was offered a choice of living a full life and living to be 70 vs eternal social distancing and living to be 80 I'd take the first choice and so would any sane person.
1000% agree, I don't know why there's this talk of "social distancing until 2022" like sorry but it's wrong to force the rest of us to sacrifice our futures so that people who were going to die soon anyway get a couple more years.
My wife was reading something a couple of days back, like 80% or something of the people who have died in TN would have likely died within a year from their underlying health conditions anyway. And I'm guessing almost all the rest were elderly and although you couldn't for sure say they were going to die soon they probably would have anyway.
