Same thing as said about HIV. More than got back to normal and there is still no vaccine.

They cannot possibly think that a 12-18 month shutdown would allow us to resume anything like what we are today.

Exactly.

If we remain sequestered for another 12 months or more there will be no returning to the normal of January 2020.

There will be a new normal. A normal that the Democratic Socialist hope to create. By then the there will be 30% of the population that will have grown accustomed to living off the generosity of Uncle Sam.

A new welfare state will have grown in the place of a once vibrant capitalist economy and there will be little chance of dislodging it.

While it might be alluring to some to think they can live forever — that they are “immortal” — the fact of the matter is that we all have our own time on earth, and then we pass away. That doesn’t make it nothing, or meaningless if it doesn’t last forever. It is good for however long it lasts — and then life moves on — giving more a chance at it. There has always been the few, who if they could not live forever, then were determined to take everybody else down with them — as the Pharaohs, Emperors, and chieftains of old. That was the elixir of their immortality — that if they go, everyone must — so therefore, everybody else should work to see that that does not happen.

That was the master mind, and master plan. “All for one.” Everyone would die — unless the king could live forever. There is no such Magic Pill. At best, one can live to 100 — without looking like they are 100. Beyond that, only the charlatans promise humans can become immortal — and live forever — even as badly as they’ve lived so far. It doesn’t work that way. Each subsequent year, is earned by each present moment — and how one does with that — and even all the billions in the world, cannot change that.

Of course there are always those old before their time, who assure us they have the fountain of eternity they drink from daily, yet at the rate of their deterioration, why would they live forever? But if they have a way of reversing that deteriorative process (aging), they are good to go for as long as that is happening. That doesn’t happen sometime in the future — but in each present moment. One is either getting better or worse — and that trend, over a long time, are their present circumstances and capabilities. It can’t just happen out of the blue — no matter how hard one wishes that were so, and how much money they have.

Death is the Great Equalizer — and how we come to grips with it. That is the story of Easter — and how we prepare for it. The best is to live one’s life as though each day is one’s last; the worst, is to live as though one will live forever — no matter what. Of course one promises to do better in the next life — or the one thereafter. Anything but to escape the consequences of this life.

From that lesson, life is reborn. Those who live well, always seem ready to go — or stay, while those who live badly, just want one more lifetime — to do right. And so a natural passing is always a terrible thing — and all they think to avoid. They won’t do anything promising unless it is 100% guaranteed — as though anything in life was that ironclad. All one can do is improve the chances — and that is good enough for most. Some would settle for any chance at all. Those people usually make the most of it. They don’t demand unlimited chances just so they can waste them. That is an allegory in every bible everywhere.

So when people have these unrealistic expectations of an equal chance as though they were never given any, one has to ask, “What is this world coming to?” Unhealthy people will die in greater numbers than healthy people. That should be understood — as a large part of the reason we live. It is not a random walk down Main Street — but a very deliberate path to that reward. It doesn’t just happen — or should it. So it behooves one to do the best they can — and not just hope that everything equals out — despite anything one does. It is very fashionable to believe that is so — and the way the world is.

There is no vaccine for Immortality. You have to take your chances. And life goes on.

Realistically, COVID-19 will be here for the next 18 months or more. We will not be able to return to normalcy until we find a vaccine or effective medications

Total unadulterated crap.
How long has AIDS been around and where is the vaccine for it?
Has life continued as normal without an AIDS vaccine?
Heck yes.

Fortunately what Dr. Deathpanel thinks is of little consequence.

Pretty much.

This is the guy who said we should off ourselves at 75 for the common good.

Now he wants to save people who are 75 and older with pre existing conditions.

That's a big contradiction.

Obviously, he has other motives.

The guy wants to destroy capitalism and our country as we know it.

Neither the common cold nor influenza seem to be caused by coronaviruses.

Corona viruses are basically cold viruses, I don’t think anybody has ever come up with successful vaccine for any of them.

Could be wrong, but I don’t think so.

The Democrats need the crisis to last past the election so they can steal it. And massive civil unrest is easier to suppress if there is already a lockdown.

Ezekiel Emanuel my be an MD and an "ethicist", but he is also a Democrat operative and an enemy of human existence. The world would be a better place without him or his brother.
