Health expert believes concerts won't return until "fall 2021 at the earliest'

I'm sorry if you were having a good day, because I have some unsettling news that I need help coping with. 

The NY Times interviewed bioethicist Zeke Emanuel, who is vice provost for global initiatives and director of the Healthcare Transformation Institute at the University of Pennsylvania.

Emanuel presented a plan detailing how we can restart the economy, and shared some unsavory news: concerts won't return for the foreseeable future. 

"Yes, restarting the economy has to be done in stages, and it does have to start with more physical distancing at a work site that allows people who are at lower risk to come back. Certain kinds of construction, or manufacturing or offices, in which you can maintain six-foot distances are more reasonable to start sooner," he said. 

"Larger gatherings — conferences, concerts, sporting events — when people say they’re going to reschedule this conference or graduation event for October 2020, I have no idea how they think that’s a plausible possibility. I think those things will be the last to return. Realistically we’re talking fall 2021 at the earliest."

Thoughts on concerts possibly not coming back for a year and a half (at the earliest)? :katycry:

No one interesting has come to my country since 2014 anyway, what’s another year I guess :byesmoke:

Blink 182 was supposed to come to my city in May (or was it April?), I haven't heard anything but I'm pretty sure it's gonna be cancelled :(

I knew it was too good to be true when they announced it a few weeks ago. I never imagined it would be because of this though
