galrads: What kind of celebrations will happen finally seeing people you’ve missed being around.
how busy will bars be when they reopen after the coronavirus scam?
how busy will maternity wards be later this year?
When can I travel safely to Italy and other European nations?
Etc.
I think the life will come with a chip on its shoulder if it turned out to be a hoax. I'd have to say fair enough, all the world is working against you in a vast conspiracy to keep you down.

well, when life comes back more usual, it will still be keeping distance, more people working from home, a maximum of visitors in pubs, popconcerts etc, so they can keep the distance etc. It's going to be a long time before everything is back to what it used to be. But see the benefits, the air hasn't been so clean in 200 years, guess in China some people living in the cities saw a blue sky for the first time in their life!!! Birds that has left the cities are coming back, also other animals. God bless this virus. Most people that died were dying already, so their end only came a bit earlier than expected, it ended their suffering. And almost in the whole world the health-care system couldn't handle things anymore. Now they get a bit of air after the virus. They are doing fantastic work, don't get me wrong, but we try to keep everybody alive as long as possible, no matter how ill they are. Mother nature says: enough is enough...

Regarding pubs ... how can they afford to remain open and in business if they have to limit numbers of people inside? Most pubs and bars inside restaurants here make most of their money on Friday's and Saturday's around here. It is usually standing room only in those areas. I’d think It will probably cost the pub owners more money Just to stay open if they have to limit seating. Btw we’ve had blue skies here since ~ 198u after years working on reducing levels of mobile and stationary pollutiin sources.
Interesting thread. I believe that businesses formerly marginal or struggling, will just quit for good, or for the foreseeable future. Bars and pubs, etc...will open but uneasily for the remainder of the year. The economy will continue to be affected because of far less spending. People will be very hesitant to use credit, buy new cars or take out mortgages. It will be similar, though in modern terms, to the WWII era of intense scrimping and saving. Jmo

I have a little dark expectings, and a lot of it matching the experts Analysts, press writers and bloggers say similar things. THE WORLD WILL NOT BE THE SAME . Maps of alliances, enmities? Priorities interests will change constantly.

No doubt all this will happen, maybe even Lines on maps will change too. I wonder if spending habits like buying cheap stuff from China, instead of American made, will change too. I don't want to see us retaliate economically with China for what the covid19 virus did because that will hurt the Chinese folks and not their government and its leaders. I think China should have a revolutionary war and everyone else should stay out of it.

In next days of Coronavirus Your priorities should change . Buy a house in a rural area or small village , use a solar energy for your house , buy a farm or garden , stay away from the government and people as you can , you have to be fully independent, not in need of anything from anyone as possible . Because the crimes rate will rise to uncontrollable numbers, you can see now how many people just lost their jobs, people talking about losing jobs by millions not thousands. About marriages and families Women and children I can not say more You can see the domestic violence how it's rising. You are talking about cheap products from China ? Not anymore . And don't hope for a civil war because it could bring the worse to the mankind. Just say thank God for the peaceful collapse of the U.S.S.R

Yeah civil war was a bad choice to say. I was thinking they should just have a revolution and govern themselves.

Agree with you and add to that people maybe become less self centred more appreciative of health workers and the world they live in. Death has stared folk in the face world wide, mother nature will go on without them regardless. So take care i say.
