When social distancing ends

Are you going to immediately start going to movies, restaurants, sporting events, large group settings OR are you going to personally extend the end date? I will avoid crowds and public places for another month after governor relaxes 'stay home' regulations.
 

I've never liked big crowds, anyway & only attended baseball games when I was married because my wife liked to.
 

I’m not one for crowds but when I do go out I’ll probably just be a little bit more cautious about distancing myself, not shaking hands and depending on where I am either wearing a mask or not. At least for a while.
 
Looks like we will miss the beach season this summer. I wish we I had the sailboat that we had years ago.
 
Until there is a proven vaccine available to treat this illness, we plan to stay "socially distant". I suspect that the worst of this epidemic will end in a couple of months, then people will begin to try to go back to normal...restaurants, movies, sports stadiums, cruises, etc., etc. Then, there will be a resurgence of this illness, and it may be just as bad, or worse, than what we are seeing today.

The best estimates put a trustworthy treatment a year away...or longer.

Between this virus, and the economic chaos it is creating, 2020 is going to go down in history as one of the worst.
 
I will again enjoy coffee mornings & Happy Hour at our wonderful 50 plus apartment. I love to "shoot the breeze" with the locals around here. Sure miss them.
 
Just like many predicted the aftermath will take a lot of people too. I've seen firsthand what regular activity and exercise do for seniors especially and by fall many who became inactive will start to fade. I think once there's a vaccine or choice of dependable treatments I think many will go back out. It's the unknown with this thing that has many un nerved as the virus itself.
