Meanwhile, everyone else just carries on and lives their lives. Except without their daughter, who's dead from the virus. And without money since it's all sunk into 24/7 nursing care to keep their 40-year-old dad alive. And without their son, who came down with really bad symptoms but didn't take any precautions, and spread it to his best friend, who died of the disease. Sonny committed suicide because he couldn't live with the guilt.
Maybe some families were left intact, no losses, huzzah! But their neighbors have stopped being neighborly, their cousins are now avoiding close contact because THEY have lost friends and neighbors...a few schools have had to make adjustments because some teachers are now dead, so your kids are being educated by a new batch of teachers who have no prior experience...
You have a new mailman now, and he doesn't know that you need the mail put through the doggie door instead of the mail box over the doorbell, because some whacko down the street steals the circulars for coupons...
That's what's next. That is the new world coming. Just a few more dead people. No big deal right?

The history of the modern world is going to be written pre-CV inception and post-CV inception. The main question then becomes........just to what degree of BAD will the post-CV inception really be? ALREADY we have 2 Americas, not a single-minded America focused strictly on the Great Virus War (WW 2.5). The UK has a vaccination rate of 85% and is returning to "normal". The US had a better start than the UK and could and SHOULD have been at 85% in April if NOT for Evangelical-type anti-vaccine thinking and other anti-American thinking and leadership flaws.
A few statistics.........72,000 new US pediatric US cases in the last week........49 CV patients currently at our TV Land hospital............5 pediatric hospitalizations at Advent Health, Orlando......BAD is becoming "BADDER"
