I think the untold "lie" is that just about everyone will be exposed to this virus eventually. There is an assumption that it will go away or a vaccine will become available. But, the underlying reason for all the shut downs is to "flatten the curve"; that is, not overwhelm hospitals, etc. But, as my friend Nick so eloquently put it: "they're just saying that everyone has to take their turn getting this virus". I tend to agree with that understanding. Stay home if you like but don't insist that I do the same.
Open it up and let's get this over with.
