What a post-vaccine world looks like for seniors: It's time to learn telemed. Oh, and how you travel will change.
Bruce Horovitz Kaiser Health News
Imagine this scenario, perhaps a year or two in the future: An effective COVID-19 vaccine is routinely available and the world is moving forward. Life, however, will likely never be the same – particularly for people over 60.
Medical care
Time to learn telemed.
Many doctors instead of just one.
Drugstores will do more vaccinations.
Your plumbing will be your doctor.
Travel
Punch up on mobile GPS apps.
Regional and local travel will replace foreign travel.
Demand for business class will grow.
Buying three seats for two.
Hotels will market medical care.
Disinfecting will be a sales pitch.
Cruises will require proof of vaccination.
Eating and shopping
Local eateries will gain trust.
Safety will be a bragging point.
Home life
The homecoming.
The fortress.
Older workers will stay home.
Gatherings
Forced social distancing.
Older folks will disengage, at a cost.
Public restrooms will be revamped.

COVID vaccine: How it will change life for baby boomers, seniors |
A ridiculous article. When this is over things will get back to normal.
Why would we change everything for something slightly worse than a normal flu, equally bad as a bad flu (1957) or much less bad than a really bad flu (1918)
