Now the bad. We were all told to stock up on non-perishable food items 60 day supply for our families through the end of the year. The consensus is when school starts back we will have a major outbreak and food supplies may be affected. The government is not expecting an effective vaccine until after next summer. its hard to distinguish between fact and fiction anymore. Hopefully we will make it through the winter unscathed but i feel another deployment coming on. Hope all of you are safe and Hailstate! And GTHOM!
I think we will either have herd immunity or the virus will burn out before we have a vaccine.
