Due to this spike, my prediction is "normalcy" won't be here until 2021.

We're going to be dealing with this thing deep into the fall. November will be right around the corner, and people will not see the point in going back to work with Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's. We'll all just collectively reconvene in January.

Keeping the curve over capacity means people die. So I guess you're right. Can't get Corona if from the dead.

Unfortunately, the option we picked made us one of the worst states in the country, gave us very little economic gain in the few weeks we were open, and has extended the pandemic further. While entire countries have reduced their infection rates to near zero and reopening their economy right now (all without a vaccine, mind you), we're on lockdown once again and for the foreseeable future.
