What awaits us after Coronavirus?

We're not all on the same boat. We're all in the same storm”. This saying was used by writer Damian Barr in what he wrote last week in a tweet. He's right. Some have on yachts, he says, and some have only one row of boat.” Some will sail and their health or profession will remain intact, some will lose one or even both. Some of us think we're part of a consolidated crew. Some of us think they're taking a hard time.

We must move forward in terms of this crisis by thinking of our country as a united team of sailors struggling to get the ship ashore. Maybe we can also see our country as a huge army of millions of people to get the order to take life. But what I think is that many of us tend to see this country between deep inequality and deeply different opportunities. This last stand I think will be more useful to overcome the crisis, and as Lincoln noted: Attitude is everything.

All of us are committed to being as much as possible in protecting each other. Staying at home means that. But I think just like we're helping each other, we should also admire each other. In the Washington Post, on Thursday, there was a story about 43 men who lived for a month inside a petrochemical factory. The factory produced raw materials for facial masks and surgical clothing.

Workers said if they got sick, it would slow down their production, so they voluntarily stayed in factories, worked long shifts, and slept on air mattresses. They called it a “live”. At any moment, their families had their ears out to hear the next car coming so they could come out and say hi to them in the window. “We were just happy we could help,” told Joe Boyce, a shift supervisor, the newspaper reporter. When history became public, they were flooded with messages of gratitude from doctors and nurses. We should thank them for what they did and continue to do, said Mr. Boyce.

OK, thanks bro.

The topic of debate is now state reopening and regions. We are struggling to see who is doing it much faster, or who is moving much slower, which is understandable, since we all know that viruses do not know state boundaries. But we must work hard not to be harsh in our judgments, since each state chooses different times and ways. The opening is what we all want to do after all. We need to be patient with each other, to look closely, to hope that lifting restrictions will succeed, but to be alert to see and act in case of failures and a return to danger.

Nobody's sure till the end of what you're doing. Everyone acts with insufficient information. No plan will be cost-free. Many things will be clarified only after some time has passed. Despite prejudice, we need to open up as soon as possible.

Are we sacrificing at speed? Should we wait for a rigid, sophisticated and mature definition of “gurt”?

We need to examine our priorities. Everybody's trying to live. It doesn't help you to be from the North and not understand them from South, or if you're a corporate professional and not think what it means when a small business goes bankrupt. People who can work far from home may not feel the same urgency of reopening as those who should be physically present at work. The right could rank by promoting Donald Trump for reopening, because according to many of them the virus is simply a conspiracy theory. The left will be ready to accuse him and enjoy any death, calling him a serious growing threat.

We're too fast to classify. But that shouldn't be the role we have to play right now. We need to think a lot more, and not just limit ourselves to what appears to be. Remember, we are 50 different countries with different stories, different ways, and attitudes, even different cultures. New Jersey is not Wyoming; Colorado is not Arkansas. These are called “Regional”. We can't erase all this even if we want to. So people will do things at different speeds and in different ways. One thing is to look, another to judge fairly and move against danger.

Governors who make decisions must be aware of the needs of their citizens. A boy running a hair salon shared with me this week his reopening plans: face shield for designers, masks for employees and customers, gloves, thermometers to measure the temperature of all those who enter. We'll all decide individually to get to work and add someone who cleans and disinfects the door of everything”. He knows business only starts when people feel safe. He will see and seek to make decisions for his own sake.

I'm “imprisoned” in current moment psychology. We're diving in the pandemic and blocking. Even so, we talk, complain, and joke. Now we need to understand that the America we left when we closed in the house, it's not going to be the same America we're going to find when we get out. It may look the same, but it will be different. More and more people will need more help. Twenty-six million have remained unemployed. And some things, the normals of life that we once took easily will no longer be.

Two examples: The retail sale has been making it difficult for years to get small shops closed down by rising costs and expanding Amazons. Now more of them will be closed, or more precisely they will never reopen again, which will change our cities. Large shops are also in danger. The JCPenney shops were closed in March, 85 thousand of their employees lost. From the beginning of pandemic, Its capitalization on the market has dropped 75 percent, and it has not extended an interest fee on its debt, reports CNBC. Macy is fighting after closing his stores with 130,000 employees. In similar situations there are many companies whose rating agencies have lowered <x0-borgin” near the bankrupt.

We all thought we couldn't wait to go back to the movies, concerts and shows. Now we're acknowledging that it can pass a lot of time until we sit down with a thousand foreigners before a scene. Warner Bros. just pulled one of his big summer movies from film to movie; it's going to be shown live on video-on-demand. Studio Universal did the same. This reflects the situation of the impasse, but also what Screencrush. com called the audience's increased independence from (and possibly preference for) home vision.” John Stankey, CEO of AT&T, the company that owns Warner Bros, said that because of the decline of the profit I was studying the “irmizes theatal model”. Imagine America without the saying: “Let's go to the” cinema. This is a profound change of things. What effort, patience, and creativity it will take to get to certain days. This will be much easier if we view ourselves, not as a separate ship, but members of a fine army, determined and varied. / W SJ/In Albanian by: Mapo.
