With the current technology and with the hardwork and perseverance of many researchers and doctors, we will hopefully soon hear good news about a vaccine or medicine to treat this coronavirus. I think it will not be worse and uglier (which I really hope) than any pandemic happened during 1918 which is Spanish flu where it leave many people dead. Let's all hope and pray for this pandemic to stop.

In fact, it is difficult to say how the virus actually behaves.
For example, a Spanish woman, a pandemic of the beginning of the last century, had 3 waves.
Moreover, the last two were significantly stronger than the first wave. Given the speed with which the coronovirus mutates, it is difficult to even imagine how the situation will develop.

Unfortunately, nobody doesn't have cristal ball to predict how situation will develope. So far it seems that we don't see the end of this health crisis yet and economy crisis is yet to come. However, I hope it will not be so bad as some say but if the world doesn't go back to normal within next month or two consequences will be long term and hard to fight. Although I'm usualy an optimist in this situation it's hard to keep positive attitude.

Hopefully the gov will just decide its more worthwhile to infect everyone determined healthy for 2 or 3 weeks and wait for them to recover and have enforced mass immunity of we can't get a vaccine fast enough...

Scary proposition given the long recovery timelines and hospitalization needs.

If this Oxford study is correct, we have basically already taken that route since most people (at least in high density areas) would have been infected by now. If it's not correct, then the herd immunity approach is dangerous because hospitals will become overwhelmed.

This is entirely new kind of pandemic so comparing it with others won't help us to determine how long it will last long.And probably this could be the shortest compared to others because we had developed a lot compared to last 100 years pandemic which is swine flu in health care so vaccine will be available before mass extinction of people.

the future nobody knows...
we will not know exactly when the crisis caused by the corona virus will be finished, countries other than China, there are still many who have just done a "Lockdown. I suspect this crisis will end in the next 3 to 4 months.

I think we are going to hear a good news on the covid-19 faster than we expect. Countries have gone into research on it and to my knowledge, it is not a terminal disease or a death sentence if contacted. Therefore, lives are preserved despite the rate of spread. It won't take longer, we have to secure ourselves for the meantime.

I believe it will take quite long because the problem is not fixable at all.

The problem was always there before corona and it happened to come out on surface because of it. Printing more money and delaying the inevitable is not a solution neither. I guess we'll soon find out.

I haven't seen the video, but the last pandemic we have is the "Spanish" flu in 1918 that killed a lot of people back then. I don't think it will be uglier though, we have vastly improved since the last great pandemic.

So I'm hoping that in the next 3-6 months, a vaccine can be discovered to stop this madness. As of right now, self quarantine is not enough, the number of infected are growing.

For the people in this community that understand spanish, I wanted to share this video I created yesterday comparing the current situation with the different crisis we had in the last 100 years.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rs5Yyvih14M&list=PLz_NVO61eqw70kA4Z9z854OoyibpDpOuq&index=2

Do you think it will be uglier than the others?
 
All feedback is welcome to keep improving!:)

Coronavirus is not one of the scariest viruses that were previously. We see that the percentage of deaths from it is not very large. In the situation with coronavirus, the political hype and the active use of the global Internet by the population played a greater role. In the Middle Ages, the plague epidemic raged for 12 years, the countries of Europe then almost died out. Most likely, the coronavirus will be defeated by the fall, and under favorable conditions, earlier.
 At the same time, governments also need to think about how to neutralize the negative consequences of the spread of coronavirus and its impact on the economy of each state; we cannot avoid a very severe global economic crisis.

The madness will probably stop in q2/3 (in three months). I cna imagine everything reopening then if it doesn't get fixed.

Hopefully the gov will just decide its more worthwhile to infect everyone determined healthy for 2 or 3 weeks and wait for them to recover and have enforced mass immunity of we can't get a vaccine fast enough...
