How this ends

Within a few weeks of making landfall in America, the coronavirus has ripped through our cities, strained hospitals, wreaked havoc on the economy, tanked financial markets, and disrupted virtually every aspect of life. Governments, businesses, workers, and individuals of all ages are consumed with one burning question: How do things get back to normal?

The disheartening answer is that things won’t truly be back to normal until there is a tried-and-tested vaccine that is widely administered. But that could take until the second half of 2021, maybe longer. So, everyone should operate on the assumption that the coronavirus will be a part of our lives for the next couple of years.
