The U.S. is going to cause a true 2nd wave of Covid-19 outbreaks internationally in the fall.  We're earth's dirty, snot-nosed kid in a classroom full of healthy kids just back from sick leave.  And our parents aren't doing anything to clean us up or get us healthy.
The other parents are going to be pissed, not that anyone here cares.  Cuz 'Murica.

Why would we expect a "second wave" this fall? 

Why wouldn't we expect to see a rise in cases in Europe as they also reopen?

Not sure how the US could cause another wave in Europe. They already kinda have one going, and we're not allowed to go there anyway.

The evidence suggests that once a place "reopens", the virus spreads, except in areas where mask wearing is pervasive.

Just wait and see.  Again.

I told you it would spread from the big cities to the more minor ones, and eventually the rural areas.

I told you reopening would cause it to jump again.

We know how this stuff works.  It's math.  The only reason it's problematic is when you ignore the math.  Too much ignorance.  Too much optimism.  Hope is a waste of time, science helps.  

Just wait and see.

You didn't need to tell us what we already knew. We don't need to be told by you.

Yes, WE KNOW. Everyone here wears masks. Not everyone here is on a government job and can sit home. Reopening had to happen.

The <35 (woke??) crowd is f'ing this up for all of us.

There is nothing wrong with optimism.

The only question about reopening was how fast and how bad it would get.  It has gotten worse than I expected, and I was not thinking it would be nice.

I was surprised early on after GA "reopened" that not much happened for a while.  I noted that places around me mostly stayed closed, and that was clearly a factor.  

I'm interested in what alternative course should have been followed.  Reopen later?  Doesn't that just delay the inevitable?  Reopen less?  I can see that, I think we could manage without gyms and bars.  Beauty parlors?  They start to get necessary at some point, and they have taken precautions.

So, anyone decrying the steps taken could perhaps outline what course should have been followed.  I think keeping everything closed for months and months is clearly not feasible, and in any event just delays the inevitable.  So, it's easy to sneer at the ignorant governors, but perhaps not so easy to propose an alternative path that makes sense.

reopening is a learning process

one of the things we learned was keep inside bars closed for awhile

we have not completely reclosed we just took a step back

is what we did enough

dont know yet as I said its a learning process

It's an impossible proposition. The way this thing has evolved is something that we could not predict in February. Closing the economy forever is not an option.

We need people to be diligent, without being told what to do.
