Ah, another doom and gloom article about the death of the entertainment industry, or at least the potential death. Why are we talking about re-opening things so soon? This article and a previous one I read assumes that these venues and places are going to open tomorrow and that is not the case. Just yesterday it was announced that Italy has begun to reopen after nearly two months on lockdown. Spain is the same way. It will take time to get back to normal. Start small and work up to the big. Coronavirus is never going to fully go away. We have to find a suitable treatment that aids full recovery while continuing to work on a cure. We have not hit the two-month mark and also, we have far more infections and deaths that any other nation in the world. The major factor is that we have a population of around 290 million with a constant stream of foreign travelers. Take a step back, relax, we will get through this and soon be able to function more and more as normal can be. But enough with the doom and gloom. We know there will be hits here and there, but this article makes it seem that nothing will survive.
