Only if we reelect the president.

I was at a sports bar yesterday watching college football. Packed. Not a mask in the place.

YAY!

3Q20 GDP increase will be off the charts, 30%+. Report is right before election. Looks like it will help the incumbent President.

Getting people to take it is a concern. 50% give or take, want to wait. You might grow a bat wing on your forehead.

I don’t think that will prove to be much of an issue. Not even taking the placebo effect into consideration, it’s really only necessary for vulnerable populations to take it. That alone will basically eliminate the death rate. Even if only half of people over 70 take it, they have a high probability of dying of anything every year over 70. Everyone else will take it or not, and it will really only affect who gets sick and who doesn’t. As long as those vulnerable populations are taking it, people who don’t take it won’t really prevent moving the needle on the death rate.
