We know we will be hit with 2nd and 3rd waves of Corona virus, but what's the plan? We can't survive in quarantine till it wears itself out. I know that if the quarantine continues for much longer, I will have no resources and I am not the only American in that position.

Quote:New York is the epicenter of the coronavirus epidemic in the US, and New York City has been hardest hit given its high population density. However, even in the city, where 21.2 percent tested positive for Covid-19 antibodies (1.77 million people) during this trial, a casualty count of 15,000 deaths points to a fatality rate of 0.8 percent.

I guess the plan is to find a vaccine or an antidote.

Well, in these difficult times, we are all asked to make personal sacrifices. Due to the potato surplus in Belgium, citizens are being asked to eat fries twice a week now.

(BRUSSELS) — In a country that claims to be the real birthplace of the finger food that Americans have the temerity to call French fries, rescuing the potato industry might easily be a matter of Belgian national pride.
So while a coronavirus lockdown keeps restaurants, bars and many of Belgium’s 5,000 frites stands closed, the trade association for the national potato industry is calling on the population at large to do its part by keeping deep fryers fired up on the home front.
“Traditionally, Belgians eat fries once a week, and it’s always a festive moment,” Romain Cools, the Belgapom secretary general, said in a phone interview on Tuesday. “Now, we are asking them to eat frozen fries twice a week at home.”
The demand for frozen potatoes has nosedived in recent weeks, and the Belgian industry faces a possible loss of 125 million euros ($135.5 million), if hundreds of tons of surplus potatoes don’t move this year, Cools said.

I saw something today about potato farmers ditching their crops to stabilize the price. There's an overabundance of potatoes here in the US.
