    I was in total quarantine in February, March and April. Since May life has come back to almost normal.
    I expect to go into quarantine again in probably September for the second wave and then waiting for the vaccine.
    I will for sure get the next vaccine for the flu in autumn.

    Europe.
    First wave came in March-April.
    It has already been 2 months almost virus free.
    Considering the low number of cases and hospitalisations I think we are clear for at least one more month.
    So August /September for the second wave.

    I'm actually trying to purchase two businesses right now while the value is super low. The problem is that I don't know when things will get normal again, and I don't know when the business will become profitable.

    Have been watching the kid play ball since mid May. Get to play this weekend, the rest is up in the air. Every other moment of time is spent on getting the house on the market and moving further into the hill country away from Travis county. I wont be a vaccine test subject and will wait awhile before I feel any confidence in considering it. Maybe if it creates super powers in the first group I'll get on board, but we know how that story plays out.

    Yes.......as much as I LOVE Montana (which I did call home at one time), I am most definitely a homebody. But duty calls. This "vacation" was not my idea. Although we're probably going there because it's one of the few places I won't put up a big stink about.

    We've managed to make America great again, so we're only going to have one wave.

    Aliens sent the first wave to thin us out. Second wave to take out the young. Then full invasion in January. This is how it has always been done. At which point we learn that microbes don't do **** to aliens like in War of the Worlds. As we bunker down for planetary War I, many of us will join the rebellion. Platypi apparently have been preparing for the war well in advance, having evolved for both aquatic and land warfare. We will establish communication, using the number pi to break down barriers, it was so simple. Platypi. We join forces, but there are only a handful of isolationists like myself left. It's going to be a long haul. But that is the way.

    Always wondered how they were smart enough to get here and invade but not be ready for microbes.

    Their biosphere was in such harmony that sickness from other lifeforms was unknown.

    I got family in Brenham they say there are about 70 current reported covid cases in the area. Blue Bell is hiring. Just in case you are looking for a job.

    They now say if all goes well the first monoclonal antibodies will start being mass produced in the fall.
    With some healthy competition and after the first thousand batches go to essential workers like doctors, nurses, policemen etc we the general public may be able to afford them by next winter.

    So there is still hope that our lives will be back to normal long before the vaccine is invented.
    They also will work for prevention.

    Brenham has been spared so far of a major outbreak. As far as blue bell goes I think I'll pass on that.
    Theyve already reported outbreaks there and they didn't even shut down. That place is a dumpster fire.
