returning to normal

[GDragon]

Everyone is just being careful right now because the virus is still circulating and they are all trying to stay safe so they don’t get infected with the virus. So when this is over, I don’t see any changes taking place.

"When this is over"

It's interesting to think about what that even means anymore. Is that in 2-3 years when maybe there will be a safe and widely manufactured vaccine? I don't mean to be pessimistic, but vaccines for SARS and MERS were never successfully developed.

Just a month ago, we all thought we could isolate for 3 weeks and this would all be over, but cases are still surging all over the world even with rigid lockdowns being enforced. The most promising treatments so far (remdesivir and hydroxychloroquine) are both failing in clinical trials too.

People are scared too. I've never seen people so scared of each other. 80% of Britons do not feel safe going back to normal life. Similar numbers in the US too. 80% of Americans support the ongoing shutdown.

These numbers indicate consumers are drastically changing their behaviors, which could have long lasting economic and social effects even after the official shutdowns end.

You're not being pessimistic, I think you are just stating the obvious fact. This won't be over in years, until an effective vaccine isn't here. Contrary to what he just said, there will be a lot of changes after this crisis, economic problems of my country will last for generations, we are buried with debt in fighting this virus. Changes will happen even after this lockdown. Distancing will still be in regulations, people will try to avoid crowds and we will be living in a new normal society.

Here in our country which is Philippines, the number of infected is increasing everyday and we are on strict lock-down right now, I don't think that this lock-down is going to end considering that, we are not flattening any curve and the cases are just getting worsen. Same on our government, I don't think that we can contaminate the virus here in our country. The only way to make things back to normal is to develop a cure which is taking too long cause we all know that it takes year! Personally, I don't feel safe right now and in any moment I can get infected.

[exstasie]

Personally, I don't feel safe right now and in any moment I can get infected.

That's it right there. That's the prevailing sentiment.

I'm beginning to think these American protestors demanding that governors reopen the economy are missing the point. Even when the orders are lifted, the economy probably won't really "reopen." People will still be terrified of the pandemic. They aren't going to flood into malls and movie theaters and salons and bars. Most will continue staying home and avoiding anything non-essential.

I saw an interesting headline about working from home today: https://twitter.com/CNBC/status/1253883932656926724

The coronavirus crisis could have a lasting impact on the workplace. 24% of respondents of a new CNBC/ChangePollssurvey say they will now work entirely or more from home going forward.

That's a huge change. Something tells me we'll see lots of downsizing and closing of commercial offices as companies shed overheads and transition to more permanent WFH schemes. That also probably means the bull market in commercial real estate is over.

Talking about returning to normal right now Vietnam have been success become first country in the world stop corona virus, we most appreciate with their government how to stop corona virus and more than one week they haven't new victim of corona virus, there are not one pass away with corona and look will success for return to normal.

That sounds interesting. Their number of cases is lower than of the big countries and therefore, they can easily manage to stop the virus to spread unlike what it happens to the US, Italy, and many more. This gonna be a long battle for them not in Vietnam (and some countries that have a few cases) and so they back to normal business operation and recover losses faster.

People are afraid of the spread of coronavirus to continue spreading but much it worries a lot of the government leaders to prolong the stoppage of Business operation coz they will be run out of money in the coming days. This will be the reason why they should have to decide and reopen for that sake.

[wiss19]

You maybe right or maybe not. But the truth, there are things that are regarded as a normal lifestyle, and these can hardly be changed. Right now, that people are on quarantine, there are lots of things they are longing to do, but they are unable to do it because of the lockdown.

Once this lockdown is over and the Coronavirus is no more, trust me, a lot of people won’t wait to do what they have been longing to do all this while that we have been on lockdown. So how exactly do you think that Coronavirus is going to change things, if it can’t stop people from communicating and meeting with each other?

I think things would not in total essence return to normal after the novel Corona virus pandemic, someone losing a love one is not something that is easily reversible.
But also the world would change for the Better, you will put more love and value to things you wouldn't have if not for the corona virus.
Economically some countries will be scared even after the Corona virus. It's all about the zeal to rebuild

It happened already, we can't prevent death especially if the person infected is weak, when the pandemic is over, the world will return to it's normal state. It's not easy but life must go one and we are hoping that the pandemic will be over soon, so we can start rebuilding whatever necessary to be rebuild.

This pandemic is not the first time, and will not be the last, there's a worst pandemic in the past but the world recovers, so we can expect and we will remain positive that things will be back to normal soon.

Which industries will die off first because of pandemic?

The obvious one for me is the movie theaters but what else?

https://twitter.com/needacoin/status/1246191483746574337

what do you think---are entire industries about to disappear because of the pandemic? will some aspects of the economy and general life irreversibly change after this?

or are these people just drama queens who are blowing everything out of proportion? maybe people will forget all about the coronavirus in a couple years time and nothing will change. that's what happened after the H1N1 scare.

This pandemic will last for quite a long time and the impact on heavy industry and service industry will be very large. If in Q3 this pandemic had not been controlled in the US and Spain, I believe the world economy would be greatly affected. we will be able to go through a great crisis due to public debt and inflation, but the economy will surely recover strongly after the events. People who say the economy is going to die and the service industries can't grow anymore then that person has neurological problems. Don't care about them.

will forget all of this? It seems impossible, H1N1 does not cause such a massive panic, the effect of this corona will heal for a long time

after this plague really ended, a monument must be built, to remember and so that the world in the future does not forget this covid19 outbreak that once disrupted the world economy

The economy will forever be alive as long as we can barter and we have the concept of money, imaginary or not.  It's getting back to normal that might not ever happen. People will forever be cautious about viruses and social distancing will be here forever.

It is going to be a really long process, the disruption brought by the COVID 19 outbreak will have a rippling affect on the economy worldwide and there is no way anyone could stop that and with that crisis on the horizon building a monument will be wastage of money, it is better to use for other things as no one will ever forget this disaster in their lifetime and the governments around the world will take initiatives to spend money on healthcare rather than spending billions piling up missiles and nuclear warheads.

I dont see the relevance for it to have a monument or whatsoever and i do agree on what you have said that this is just a wastage of money
in would be rather worthy if it would be used on more important things than this one.When it comes to history then it cant really be easily
forgotten by us that covid did really make a huge impact globally into most sectors.

I didnt or no one really expect for this thing to happen to become worst in reaching into the extreme extent where it did really affect
the economy so bad but of course, all things would really be resolve out but that one is still a question atm.

Every bad time comes to an end. This one will also follow the same route. The bad thing is that the world economy has and will be suffering for the rest of this year to come. I dont think bitcoin will be doing anything good this year and we can expect it to remain bearish for longer period of time.

The third world countries like always will have a devastating effect on their economy and they will take a lot of time to cope up with the situation. The important thing in such times to to learn how to keep a sane mind and not go off the track or take the law in your own hands.

Supposedly this will happen. But nowadays, it looks like bitcoin breaking out its resistance. And having a good trend line since last day. I agree with you that the economy of third world countries may devastate after this virus issue and it takes time before it continue again. But I think trading and investment will be good because buying the lows is the best time to make profits.

   I think here is much more at stake than Bitcoin and crypto-market. World economy is barely holding,
and more important new rules and regulations waits for us. This pandemic is changing the world and
peoples minds, for good or bad future will show.
   Crypto-market will gain popularity, there are many advantages that crypto-currencies offer. This virus
outbreak shows how weak economy we have and many will see crypto-currencies as safe heaven and possible
solution for many problems we currently have.

It is really bad for third world countries to rise back again because most of the third world countries have large numbers of virus cases, that is why after this pandemic of the corona virus or COVID-19 these countries will continue to suffer until the end of the year. But i think using bitcoin as a source of income could help their economy while they temporarily don't have any jobs because it could help them to earn and to provide their necessities by doing trading and investing in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Returning to normal need and take time, more than one year to get recovery and business try to be better. When many business lost their profit they will pay many out come from their project, without income they will need new investor before their project and business stop for working back.

[panganib999]

there's a new narrative emerging that life will never return to normal after the coronavirus pandemic:

I don't think people realize that there is no normal to go back to anymore.

At absolute minimum:

1) Supply & demand has been reallocated across the economy, with travel & events zero'd out, remote work & masks to infinity
2) Virus permanently changes public behavior
3) Supply chain disruption just starting

Even if the virus did vanish in a puff of smoke and everyone went "back to work", the behavior of billions of people and every country has been permanently changed.

Demand won't quickly come back, borders won't easily reopen, international relations won't be the same.

I think it is not just a drama or overthinking as well as over reacting because it is true that we cannot go back to our normal lives together with the economic development that easy as for now because there is still no cure for the virus so what we can have is still to be cautious on the things around us which also changes our behavior and the way we think because of the pandemic. It does not mean that because we cannot get back to normal life as of now is it will become permanent, no. It is just for temporary while the cure is still into discovery, but when the cure have been found, surely everything will get back to normal. Although there are some changes, well at least there will be new lesson of life we can bring to the future to avoid such thing like this pandemic to happen again.

After epidemics, we will see quite a few new things, primarily in terms of hygiene on various means of public transport, such as airplanes, trains or even taxis. Secondly, many enterprises will be closed, because do not have a supply of money to cover their expenses due to the epidemic.

[fullhdpixel]

Whatever kind of change it’s going to be, I hope it’s going to be for the better. When it comes to people’s character, I will say they will learn to be more careful and avoid some things and the way they interact with others. And as for the government, I think from now on the government in every country that was affected will learn to invest more money in the health section.

In developing countries where their leaders care less about their health system, it’s going to hit them hard and they will learn a lesson from this and prepare their countries for the future. There is a total lockdown and no one is allowed to travel from one country to another.

i dont think industries will be disappear,i mean not for all.
one will change is daring shop will be more liked than before,and also for general life,clean living habits may be permanent for some people,especially for families who die of corona.

[Janation]

After epidemics, we will see quite a few new things, primarily in terms of hygiene on various means of public transport, such as airplanes, trains or even taxis.

Despite the pandemic, this should be really a norm to these places.

These are one of the places that should be focussed when it comes to sanitation since the citizen of the countries is not the only ones using it but also the tourists. I think nothing will change except for those people that might still carry the fear they had because of this pandemic and lockdowns. I guess securities when it comes to health will be more looked into especially on ports especially airlines which is the connection of our country to another.

Movie theaters were dying long before corona came in, they have huge rents, I mean they are usually huge in place they cover as well, just one of them takes so much space, 50+ seats and so forth, and usually each place has 5 of them at least, some even more, that means we are talking about a cinema saloon taking up 300+ seat place in general plus the place where you buy the tickets and popcorn and all, so they do not pay rent like a regular clothes shop or something, they paid a lot. Plus they are giving half of all ticket sales to movie makers, which makes sense as well.

Compare that to netflix, zero rent and they just buy things off right away and there could be a million viewers or just one, doesn't change anything because it is basically all paid for, and they get hundred million people paying for it all around the world as well. Hence at the end of the day those places will be novelty one day, netflix will take over many of them.

According to the experts, there will be a new normal that may happen after this crisis. What is the "new normal"? It is the rises of the concern and respect to the health workers and also the rises of the number of the people who support the work from home because they having more time to their families. The new normal that we can see is for the better in order for us to adjust to the situations that we experienced.
