I've been pondering all along how we're supposed to develop "herd immunity" if we hide ourselves from each other for months on end. This guy (who just happens to be... A Nobel Prize winning Structural Biologist- whatever that is) and others like him, seem to think that places like, say... California, successful as it's been in avoiding a plethora of immediate hospitalizations and deaths, is simply setting itself up royally for a Monster Second Wave when we finally do emerge from our caves! And it kinda makes sense; we may have brilliantly prevented overwhelming our medical resources in certain areas thus far- but just because we're hiding doesn't mean the monster is still not out there... Have we averted catastrophe, or just... delayed it?
One thing is for sure, we only suppress and weaken our immune systems if we shelter and wear masks24/7! And a vaccine is still not anywhere close- and now, we may need more than one!
