Vaccine will come out. Ppl will get it. Biden will get in. Masks will be mandated. A lockdown will occur. PCR cycle rates will be quietly lowered. 'Cases' will go down.

All hail king Biden

With that said, I think travel will be much better by spring. Everyone I know that is still nervous about flying have said they’re waiting for more people vaccinated before they get back on a plane. But all of them are desperate to get back to flying, still have jobs and still have the cash to spend. Some of workers in impacted industries like travel and restaurants are doing bad but others are not only managing but doing well. The economy will still have life after.
Oh yes because all the other countries in Europe which locked down and "took it seriously" are doing so much better.
This virus spread to even remote islands and some people still think lockdowns will stop the virus. There's a reasons it's called a global pandemic...
And before you say china stopped the spread of the virus, you better rethink their trustworthiness.
Another lock down will do nothing but damage our economy even more. Instead, we should focus on the approval/distribution of the vaccine and accelerating that process.

I'd say he couldn't do it because it's unconstitutional, but I thought the same thing with Obamacare/ACA when they decided to regulate commerce inside states and that took years to strike down. I'm starting to think we should strike the Congress and just elect kings from here on out. It worked for Rome, right?

You may well be right.

This thread and its predecessor are littered with the carcasses of the brothers and sisters of this post. Pretty much none of them have come close to fruition. I’m not going to do the Internet shout down thing, but I disagree. Pax numbers have been growing about 1% per week. That happened this week despite the hugest virus spike we’ve seen yet. Growth has continued. Something truly remarkable has to happen for consumer behavior to go back to the way it was in April or even July. It’s not out of the question, but it’s improbable. I think it’s more likely that the numbers bump along in the 40s (except Tuesdays...don’t talk about Tuesdays) maybe into the low 50s until March or April and then accelerate.

Been saying this for months. Things will get better after Biden transitions into office.

I agree with the assessment completely. As far as air travel is concerned, the worst is behind us.

Not possible.

Because that’s what Fox News, OAN and Alex Jones told you?

JFC I have never been more embarrassed in my entire lifetime to be American. I mean my god is this not one of the stupidest closed minded (free will) societies in existence.

Keep in mind that the vaccine will require a booster 3 weeks after initial shot AND it probably won't provide immunity right away. That will mean numbers will likely get worse right up until inauguration. Then Biden and co can mandate a nationwide lockdown (to the extent they can convince the public that it's legal). After their 4-6 week lockdown, the effects of the vaccine will start to bear out in the stats and they can say "see, lockdowns are what we needed all along, aren't we smart."

Just to be clear, I'm not blaming one side for dishonesty. If the political exchange was the opposite, they'd do the same. It's the nature of politics.
