You know there will be a large number of people out there who see this as a nonsensical "test of faith."
It isn't a test of faith. It's a biology test. A lot of people are failing. The makeup exam will be the second wave.

you mean the 2nd wave that was always anticipated and planned for? Or did flattening the curve come across to you as a cure?

I've thought about this a lot since I first read it, MDO. I'm sure you weren't arguing with me - I mean, I completely agree with your sentiment here.

I just want to be clear - I think there are some people who will not see it for the biology/science test that it is. They will fall back on their religion and frame the entire pandemic as a test of faith. That would be the primary reason "a lot of people are failing."
