Sounds like you quit playing. The message of "just flattening the curve" has seemingly disappeared.

I think when we have a real medical emergency on our hands you will find people believing it is the little boy that cried wolf again.

The sooner we get back to 100% open the sooner we will know what we are really dealing with.

The increased testing (?) supposedly contributes to higher incidences.

The problem we see is us elders (early 80's) will have to REMAIN conservatively vigilante until there is a vaccine.

There will not be another lock down.

We will learn to live with what ever numbers result just like we do with the flu, auto deaths, et al.

Very much so, and with no good treatment and no vaccination available anytime in the foreseeable future, it's going to take some time to play out.

More testing = More cases. Sounds like you miss Taxachusetts!

Let’s just close everything forever. That should make you happy. People get sick and die every day. Staying in your house isn’t going to help.

Yes I am terrified. Faith not fear signs are ignorant if one truly knows the word of God. It is foolish to think we can resume life as normal when we are living in a pandemic as the most at risk population. I see people loaded in the restaurants and gathering together and it makes me sad. We buy takeout to support locals but stay away from crowds and wear a mask live with sanitizer and dry hands that’s me.

81 cases in TV, since the start of Coronavirus. That is people who have tested positive. Not in the hospital. Not dead. Out of approximately 150,000 people. That's .012 percent.

It took awhile but we got used to wearing seat belts, right? So, same will go for the masks, will wear them for as long as it takes to be safe. It is surprising to watch people as they exit their cars and not have a mask on, but as soon as they hit the door of a business, on goes the mask. It will be for a time until a vaccine is produced that will protect us, and it will be like getting a flu shot every year, I hope..........

People going out and about in every state signifies the general acceptance of the virus risk.

People need and want to resume their lives.
The stay-home, shutdown didn’t eradicate the virus, at the most it only slowed it down.
In the meantime the virus will spread until it runs its course, or herd immunity evolves, or a vaccine is developed.
