Speaking of the lock-down, quarantine situation, and how long before we resume normal travel and business? Anyone wanna tackle this one or venture a guess? Officials have been mentioning June.

We are entering the key 6 months of economic activity for many smaller businesses. A lot of small businesses are gonna go under if it last til June. Longer than that and it could get real ugly.

I would be surprised if we are in a near normal state any time this calendar year and would think there is no chance for a June recovery. Until the medics develop proceedures that can treat folks who are seriously ill and prevent most deaths, there will be little or no change from todays status, in fact things will likely get worse as far as lockdowns are concerned. Once the deadliest aspects of the virus are contained, some relaxation may be warrented but until the virus disappears OR a vaccine is developed, return to normalcy will not happen and that might well mean a full year or more.

3 months almost back to normal.

When we hit 20 to 30 thousand dead , then it will be no big deal

Just like the flu 10s of thousands die each year and nobody gives a crap

I'm mainly concerned about the upcoming primary election in May. I heard that the liberal left is pushing for "mail in voting". That opens a whole can of worms. No proof if identity, citizenship, or other legal requirements for eligibility.to vote.

They are stuffing envelopes as we talk.

If that's the case, we may survive this.

3 months minimum for travel but business will never return to normol. It will become a new normol.

Loans will be given out to small business but bailout's will be given to large corporation's. Don't pay your loan back and your business now belongs to the bank's.

As soon as the media decides to focus on something else.

President Trump did say today that "We can't let the cure be worse than the problem itself." May see a little backing off in the future? It is bad and horrible but it will not be stopped and all we be exposed.

12-16 weeks from what I understand.This is what they figured from china-if you can believe the data from china,from when it started and when it peaked.

Late summer my guess.

But you never know.

With all the younger, we know it all and we're bullet proof kids that are still going to the beach,having parties, and doing everything their not suppose to.

Who knows!!

My guess end of May or June where things might start to relax a little.

Been hearing from a few mom’s and grandparents that their college age kid/grandkids have found it a good excuse not to go home, “don’t wanna risk spreading it”, but then are posting pics on-line, or their friends are, of all the parties. They apparently don’t feel that they’re at much risk of getting it, if they do the symptoms aren’t that bad, and besides, if they get sick, they’re young and healthy so they’ll get priority treatment. The last one stunned me.

You guys think I’ll be able to still hunt deer during archery season this September?

If you wanna wait that long, don’t see why not. Saving ammo for something else? They have gun season down here too.

Too bad there wasn't a virus that just killed stupid people.

Proof that Darwin was wrong.
