I was just perusing Worldometers and noticed Israel, after seemingly having eliminated community transmission during May, is now shooting up again with exponential growth being observed in new cases. They were one of the “success stories” lauded, as well, so it’s definitely a cautionary tale for countries that appear to have things under control.

You can add New York back on the list down the line, especially if herd immunity is not achievable.
 
Shocker, NC Governor lays out plan that is basically hybrid, with mix of face to face and virtual learning. All teachers, staff, students required to wear face coverings....man, teachers, whose job all day long is speaking to students to do so while wearing a mask. If I was a student and my test grades were less than stellar, first thing I'd tell my parents.... "I can't understand the teacher from behind that mask" ;)

In all seriousness, my wife's school District is laying out a plan that has all k-8 attending school at all campuses to have enough space to properly social distance students in class, then all 9-12 will be remote/virtual. Trust me, there is no plan that everyone will like and agree on.
 
Welp. Another 3 weeks under phase 2 . No gyms no bars . The transition out of phase 2 has been delayed so much and look what it has done. Cases still soaring, so what was accomplished ?
 
Another good read if you got time today.

At least your state has a plan. Alabama has a half hearted plan. I've been listening to the state board meeting while putting up corn and it's a joke. Nothing is mandated and it's all guidelines ? But the state superintendent was like we don't really have a concrete plan but we got you 600 gallons of hand sanitizer (for the entire state!) and your school nurses will get an extra $600 (per district!) for cleaning supplies. What a joke!! My local district has not said one peep either and school is supposed to start August 10th
 
Can someone help me understand what happens if antibodies diminish fairly rapidly, like a few studies I have seen have indicated?

My thought is if the above is the case, then a vaccine won't be effective and also getting the virus and getting over it won't be effective.

Anyone considering that possibility? Or am I not thinking about it the right way?
