Total Deaths 773,586
Out of a population of billions, that's a drop in the bucket--and that sounds harsh, especially if you knew someone who died from COVID-19, but facts are facts. We can't keep wearing face masks and staying away from each other and not going to work just because there's a virus out there that causes mild symptoms in the vast majority of patients. The response IMO has been way out of proportion to the actual threat. Personally, I'm glad we're starting to see life slowly moving back to normal, and I can see it around me in little ways. There's going to be some damage done to the economy as a result of the lockdown, which probably hasn't been reflected in the stock market yet. The longer businesses stay closed, the worse it's going to be for the economy.

Every country is different in its current pandemic status so those who have a meeting or have fun can do it, which includes the video, maybe the country is already low on Covid-19, but with me, I will continue to follow safe protocols to guard against infected and therefore people are now difficult to manage and they have the resolve to face the impact if it happens to them.
The country must have implemented health protocols and how good is it to use a mask when going out.

Following the rules the government has put in place not to contact Corona virus, it really save the life of people by distancing their self for each other.

Wait there is already a vaccine available. I dont think people will ever care about the virus until it hits his/her family.

The really funny thing is, the medical doesn't generally accept God. This means that everything that happens in their minds has to do with simple nature. Look at how smart simple nature is. The medical is having problems figuring out what is the proper cure. Simple nature has them baffled. Don't trust a vaccine. Nature is way too smart for scientific researchers. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

I also noticed that now everyone does not care about social distance and the whole situation in the world with the virus in general.
I feel like people are just too frustrated now and they cannot think of being isolated more even if they catch corona virus they are okay with it but they don't want to die of isolation. I have seen news about poor people suffering and suiciding so it is a desperate situation where I agree we need to be isolated but people are just too bored with that and now moving out for party and public gathering although it is just as risky as it ever get. People need to understand that it was just a few more months and everything would be back to normal very soon while if they continue to be arrogant and move out of their houses for parties, music, etc this is going to make situation worse. For people who are moving out because of dire financial situation I can forgive them but gatherings and party is the last thing you want to do.

The example is that it wouldn't have been only a month or two. Why not? There wasn't any need for it in the first place, and there still isn't. There were only two things: 1. Precautionary measures; 2. Lies. The precautionary measures were over within 2 months after they were issued. All that is left right now is the lies. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

So, what you're offering to do? Because people can't live closed at home for half year and more. There is no signs that virus will disappear soon, so we have to learn how to live with it. Life should return normal, but offcourse, common sense is still needed. Keep distance probably is good thing, but do you really expect that people will wear masks in the beach? It would have only been for a month or two, it's just that people refused to listen.
Nope. Whole world completely stopped in March, April, start of May, but virus didn't stopped to spread, despite that borders were closed, business, all events were stopped and there was strict penalties for breaking rules. You simply can't completely eliminate virus. Same like flu don't disappear, despite that we have vaccine for it. And no doubts that number of corona cases, together with flu is going to increase again in autumn. I rather would blame some governments who didn't handled this situation well and weren't ready for this crisis. And seems that corona arrived from China much earlier than first confirmed cases in late February - March. I'm sure that some people will say that we should wait for vaccine. But as WHO said, thay may never be a silver bullet for Covid-19.

This means that by now the virus has spread into the lockdowns, and behind the masks. It means that there is absolutely no reason for the lockdowns or the masks any longer, because the virus has spread essentially everywhere. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

You know, even in our country, it's just the same,
Even if we are facing the pandemic, most people don't care about it. They don't care for everyone and even in their family. Most people still continue to do unnecessary activities just to enjoy themselves because they are bored inside their homes.
Maybe they care but it just slips their mind. They might be carried away with the feeling of going out after being inside their house for so long. But it also makes me think that if they really care for their health and their family's, then they would be strict with themselves on following the health protocols imposed. We all want this pandemic to end. But breaking the rules won't help the curve go down, instead it'll just add the number of positive cases in case we came in contact with someone positive without our knowledge. Just like what I always see on TV, "Stay Home, Save Lives."

Currently people are not afraid of everything even the corona virus that kept people inside for period of time. May be because of the conditions involves in the country people choosed to think their is know transmission of illness can after them. Even in my country here know one regards corona virus rules and regulations like going out with face masks and others. And government is know longer interested to harm anyone that violent law. I think this is a stop to corona virus.

Apparently there is a vaccine available, but I don't think it's fully tested yet. Who knows about the long term effects of the vaccine? I don't want to be the guy to test any bad effects of the vaccine. I mean Russia offered to help USA to develop a similar vaccine but they outright refused. Something must be not right with this one. In my opinion most people will wait for more information on the vaccine and see what are the long term effects. I agree with you many people seem very ignorant about corona and only change their approach once they know someone who is infected. If everyone would follow the social distancing safety measures we would be much better off. Let's hope there won't be a 3rd wave.

If there is a second wave, then it will be the result of manufactured fake stats. Most people now have immunity to what has transpired to be a minor epidemic. As yet, no healthy person has died from the virus. but they suppress that info with fake stats, You know that Big Pharma is concerned about the population becoming immune, because they are rushing to bypass all the safety precautions that are in place to check vaccines. It takes a minimum of 4 years to provide basic tests, and probably in excess of 20 years to ensure safety. Current testing just looks for the production of antibodies created from synthetic viruses, and evaluates the pharmaceuticals that are required to overcome the side effects. Hopefully they won't allow any vaccines to be adopted for mass use - we can't afford the resulting medical costs involved in treated the cripples that will be created.

The fact that we're on this forum is indicative of the fact that neither of us trust the media. I believe in the scientific method, but I know that bad science is published and shared, especially once an issue has been politicized. I don't trust the WHO, I don't trust the media. I come from a family of doctors. I know people who work in hospitals, I know people who have intubated patients who are on their last legs, I know people who have contracted covid and have lived, I knew people who contracted covid and died. Some people who get it have no symptoms, some people who get it have long term symptoms, some people die. This isn't the flu, it's just not. We don't know if herd immunity will work —time will tell in Sweden's case— it looks like things are getting better there (though I think it would be silly to not recognize the fact that the government eventually endorsed social distancing measures, as well as limiting the size of large gatherings). I'm going to continue keeping my distance, avoiding unnecessary travel, and wearing a mask (like the MAJORITY of people in my city) since the statistics have shown these choices keep the infection curve flatter. If you'd like to go out and put yourself and others at risk, you can do that, though I hope you don't regret the damage that you do.
