I am not sure if everyone is on the same page here, at least not in this forum.
What do you believe will cause the end of this first round of the Epidemic? Is it that a certain amount if the populatiin will get infected then the virus will magically stop spreading, then magically start up again?
Experts are predicting 3 waves of this Coronavirus.
Even if we did nothing and the virus spread unchecked, it would still have 3 cycles with two cycles free of the Coronavirus. Obviously social distancing is not going to change the basic nature of the cycle.
So what is going to bring this first round to a stop?
@eladar saidOnly electing Joe Biden can save us.

Then the corona fairy will come down and wave her magic wand to make things right again.

@proper-knob saidTo start with, how about creating jobs to make PPE and ventilators instead of forcing people to go without a job and funding massive stimulus packages that erroneously give money to the such things as the abortion industry? Then when the US has enough sell it abroad.

There will be a never ending demand now.
Crazy, huh?
Naturally, anyone one with half a brain is ineligible to even enter Washington DC. let alone get elected. In fact, they now seem to prefer people with obvious dementia to take the helm.

From a search
Because measles is extremely contagious and can spread through the air, for example, the immunity threshold needed to protect a community is high, at 95%. Diseases like polio, which are a little less contagious, have a lower threshold—80% to 85% in the case of polio.
So we need to get 80 percent of the population exposed to this thing before it will stop?
@proper-knob saidThey are but right now there is not enough from what I hear.
Is the US not making PPE and ventilators?
Just try to buy some and you will see.
Everyone should have access so we can resume our lives.
Here is an interesting find. It makes the distinction between Winter and Summer viruses. No mention of year round viruses.
But summer colds can actually make patients feel sicker because they generate more symptoms. Both types of colds are characterized by a runny nose and other upper respiratory symptoms, but summer viruses can affect the whole system, not just the nose, causing flu-like symptoms that can include gastrointestinal issues and a low-grade fever. Summer colds are also spread differently. While winter colds are usually transmitted in enclosed rooms by respiratory droplets, summer viruses are spread through contact with body secretions and easily transmitted by children."But preventive measures are the same for both types of colds: wash hands often and well, and stay clear of people who are sick,” says Dr. Cohen.

From this I would say we are looking at a winter virus.
@handyandy saidThe experts say that the US is expected to have 3 rounds of this virus.
If there is another round, it would come in from outside, i.e., places in the world that had not reached the immunity threshold.
