When will this end?

[Dimosaur]

I'm trying not to be reading too much, or watching the news too much as its just affecting my health and anxiety.

When does everyone think this will all settle down realistically?
Do we think by January things will be back to normal ish?

I think it will be a lot sooner than January. Scientists from all around the world are working on a vaccine and they are hopeful that one will be ready by September.

Lockdown will end gradually, with schools going back first I think, maybe in June or July.

I don't think we know yet. I find taking it a day at a time is easier. There's so much we can't predict- how long a vaccine will take, how many people are already immune, whether immunity works as we hope. But I am confident we will get there.

FFS not another thread about 'when will it end?' Nobody knows, nobody and certainly not MN.
