Folks,

Yes, delay has allowed the virus to take a deep hold. But what of the future?

News from South Korea is that some apparently recovered people are testing positive again. If that pattern develops there is a worst case scenario threatening. If we cannot assume that this virus will behave like some others and go away naturally, then there is a permanent threat. For old and vulnerable people (including me) that could mean long term social distancing, maybe lifelong.

That's hard and the government, maybe no one, has the answers.
