Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp said he wasn't aware that asymptomatic people could transmit coronavirus as he announced he was preparing to issue a state-wide shelter-in-place order.
Kemp had resisted imposing tougher measures to tackle the pandemic, but on Wednesday he joined other Republican governors including the leaders of Florida and Mississippi in announcing he would sign a stay-at-home order. The order, which he said he would sign on Thursday, will go into effect on Friday.
everyone probably not but i think more people will get it than dont get itIs there any way that this thing ends (everything completely back to normal) without everyone getting the virus at some point?
This thing is never going away. It's a new disease that will hang out there. These precautions are to stem the flood into the health system and give us some time to develop some sort of vaccine.Is there any way that this thing ends (everything completely back to normal) without everyone getting the virus at some point?
Right I understand the need to slow it down to not overwhelm our medical resources. I just don’t see how we can reopen schools and businesses without additional spikes. I guess you hope that enough people will recover and have some sort of immunity that will slow the spread.This thing is never going away. It's a new disease that will hang out there.

When we do reopen, I think there would be another spike, maybe not to this magnitude, but there will probably be an increase. The idea is that when that does happen, the hospital system will be more prepared, and we can have better methods on either reducing the symptoms or even have a vaccine in place.Right I understand the need to slow it down to not overwhelm our medical resources.

Even if a vaccine isnt developed for a year and a half......hopefully some technologies (such as the gr8 texan unironically wearing the flag/eagle hat and developing affordable ventilators) will mitigate the stress on the hospital system and therefore make it safer to get interact with others
This is one area I'm concerned about. Let's say school starts back up in the fall, and one single person gets sick. Is school then closed again? If so, how long? I assume that every school district is going to spend the summer figuring out a backup plan, like online learning, so that these kids don't fall so far behind.Source of the post I just don’t see how we can reopen schools
Depends on if there is a vaccine developed, or a "herd immunity" starts to develop, so people that have had this won't get sick, or other methods to lessen the symptons, the preparedness of the health care system improves, then we won't have to close everything down.This is one area I'm concerned about.

Ehhhh. I think schools are just as volatile as any other relevant group. You have think broad than just the people that comprise a "group". Those kids go home to parents that have been out and about all day.Schools are less of a problem than many other areas as the relevant group of people pretty much stays the same from day to day.
Parents not being out and about all day was my premise. But of course, it's still far from a "safe" scenario.Ehhhh. I think schools are just as volatile as any other relevant group.

Basically all groups are connected.
