darkphoenix181 04/15/20 3:20:40 PM #1:	Hope you weren't expecting to do anything major the next two years like getting married, finding a gf/bf, new job, etc. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/apr/14/coronavirus-distancing-continue-until-2022-lockdown-pandemic Physical distancing measures may need to be in place intermittently until 2022, scientists have warned in an analysis that suggests there could be resurgences of Covid-19 for years to come. The paper, published in the journal Science, concludes that a one-time lockdown will not be sufficient to bring the pandemic under control and that secondary peaks could be larger than the current one without continued restrictions. One scenario predicted a resurgence could occur as far in the future as 2025 in the absence of a vaccine or effective treatment. Marc Lipsitch, a professor of epidemiology at Harvard and co-author of the study, said: Infections spread when there are two things: infected people and susceptible people. Unless there is some enormously larger amount of herd immunity than were aware of the majority of the population is still susceptible. Predicting the end of the pandemic in the summer [of 2020] is not consistent with what we know about the spread of infections. <cite>darkphoenix181 posted [p:937457136] in Expert say...
