We can only return to "normal" in two ways; when the virus is crushed (i.e., no one has the virus so it can't be spread) or when 90% of are immune, either because they have had the infection or they have been vaccinated. At the moment, with cases rising out of control but at only about 1% of the population having had the virus, we are neither free of the virus nor do we collectively have herd immunity to impeded its spread. Se we are, to use Porter's terminology, "Stick in the middle".
P.S., Susan Collins, after his acquittal in the Senate, said: "I hope the President learned his lesson". Senator; on what planet were you living the three years prior? And now do you think he's learned his lesson. Indeed has he learned anything? Ever? Not much, apparently, according to his niece.
