“Millions of working people and small-business owners who cannot earn money while sheltering at home are facing economic ruin. So dozens of states, seeking to ease the pain, are coming out of lockdown,” the New York Times reports.

“Most have not met even minimal criteria for doing so safely, and some are reopening even as coronavirus cases rise, inviting disaster. The much-feared ‘second wave’ of infection may not wait until fall, many scientists say, and instead may become a storm of wavelets breaking unpredictably across the country.”

3. Of course it is coming back

What have we done to prevent it from coming back?

That's the science of it.

7. Exactly

It’s a coronavirus still here or a coronavirus never left. And, mark my words, it will be that way at least through the end of the year.
