No one knows how long it’ll be until we can return to normalcy, but some experts are not optimistic. One is saying that he doesn’t think it’ll be safe to attend large-group gatherings like concerts, sporting events, and conferences for quite some time.
Zeke Emanuel, the director of the Healthcare Transformation Institute at the University of Pennsylvania, told the “New York Times” that concerts and sporting events won’t be safe to attend until “the fall… of 2021… at the earliest.”
He said, quote, “You can’t just flip a switch and open the whole of society up. It’s just not going to work. It’s too much. The virus will definitely flare back to the worst levels.”
He added that the re-starting of the economy will have to be done in stages, and crowded events like concerts and sporting events will be the last part of our old lives to return.
