How many more reasons do people need to avoid being infected?
Sorry if you laid out your recommendation before but what do you suggest we do?

Unless there's a permanent lockdown on a global level where everything comes to a standstill until there's not even a single positive test, how else do we stamp out the virus? I know a lot of people are banking on a vaccine but how effective do we expect it to be?
