    Does anyone else think that big office buildings filled with cubicles will soon be a rare sight?
    I think those Regus office rental things will become more popular. Companies will be able to rent out space for a limited time if they need personal interaction without having to fully lease a building.

      went to the gulf coast for the weekend and it was the first time I felt like a normal person since early-mid March. or actually, January when I went to Gatlingburg/Pigeon Forge. I actually ate in a jam-packed restaurant (there were a couple empty tables but none near me. and all the waiters/waitresses had on masks, just not over their mouth or nose but around their neck like a necklace.) after the last 3-4 months I had culture shock at the amount of people a foot apart from each other. ah well, it is what it is. I'll be monitoring my breathing the next week.

        Unless they're all breathing through tracheostomies, that's not going to do any good.

          I’m not ready for all of this just yet. We had a total of 6 people over two weekends ago, I was with my family (group of 6) on Memorial Day, and will be visiting family again for Father’s Day. But we declined a BBQ invite from friends because we knew it was going to be a larger gathering and some of them have rushed to go out to restaurants, bars, etc. Picking our spots and want to let this thing ride before I go out without thinking. For what it’s worth, I’m not wearing a mask and doing the distancing at a social gathering. I’d just stay home if that was the case. I do wear a mask when at the store, though. It’s the least I can do. Extremely temporary to wear it in a store so it’s no big deal.

          I’m honestly a bit surprised we’re getting the spike now after some states have been open for over a month, thought this would happen sooner if it happened.

          Some semblance of normalcy hit this week with my wife returning to normal hours and is able to go in to office and my son is enrolled in a new school/daycare.

          Also, I saw Hydroxychloroquine was revoked its emergency use by the FDA. I thought the science behind it made sense but clearly COVID19 is more advanced of a disease then this drug was able to effectively handle. Last I read, COVID19 was not a respiratory disease at all but a vascular disease (blood vessel). I don’t know what the prevailing opinion is but the way this thing is ravaging people in all different ways we still have so much to learn. That’s why I’m not rushing to be amongst people to a reasonable degree. I don’t want to be infected with a mystery disease.

              That graph shows why I hate it when people compare other countries to us.

              For better or worse, we have so many freedoms. Those freedoms don't require intelligence.

              Is any other society so "you can't tell me anything" and anti-authority as us?

                  But, but, but, we have more population than those three countries combined........

                  But, but, but, those countries had the virus months months before the US, it was a west to east thing, ya know.

                  Just wait till the hot weather arrives, poof, this virus will magically disappear.

                          What about it?

                          30 million people and 2 thousand deaths? Seems like Texas is doing a pretty good job considering the circumstances.

                            I really don't understand how people are comfortable just hand waving away people dying, but looking at world history, US History, and current events it appears to be a common frame of mind unfortunately.

                              More biased graphs. You probably didn’t even consider how few cases we’d have if we just stopped testing.
