(+) Yeah! (+)

have probably gone away. But nooope. We're now stuck with covid for the rest of our lives.

Lots of countries did that. It doesn't magically make the virus disappear.

You need EVERY country to do that. Every single person needed to be locked inside their homes. That's how you stop a virus from spreading.

so you want to invent a mind control device or something??

Also how in the worldy world do you expect EVERYONE to be locked at home?

There are essential workers that need to work outside. Everyone need to be provided for with daily needs by still going to the market. People still need to go outside for fresh air.

You cant lock EVERYONE at home. This sort of unrealistic mentality is what I'd expect from a 7-year old kid. But hey, this is CE

No because timezones.

And because half the population is literally this

Idk how you would do it. But it's all I can see if we wanted to get rid of the virus. Now we're stuck with this virus for life.

If people had just taken the proper precautions earlier on and ride out lockdown longer we probably would have been ok but half the population just wasnt having it

So yeah thanks for that. Sure lockdown sucks but dealing with it and knocking this out would have been better than being stuck with this forever

Even if America had acted perfectly, we probably would have been back to square one because no way in hell would India have ever gotten their shit together with their rampant poverty. Not that America couldn't have done massively better, but I don't think there's really much stopping this situation.
