Intermittent Social Distancing

These folks think we'll be with COVID on and off for awhile.

And even if it abates, it could come roaring back.

Concerning. But not without options to fight. A lot of my earlier suggestions could work - I'd be a huge advocate of the following:

1) Moving as many meetings online as possible.

2) Much stronger sick pay and encouragement from workplaces to stay at home if/when sick AT ALL.

3) Cleaning, cleaning, cleaning - much better hygiene all over the place.

And then this - a first hand account of an entire family with COVID in NYC.

It sounds quite a bit worse than your average cold /flu to me -- in particular in a place like NYC with hospitals overflowing. It reinforces that this initial 2 week lockdown was necessary to get a better picture of this situation
