    So, are we ready for the coronavirus 3rd wave? The 2nd wave came after premature opening in April-May; first cases, then deaths rose with a lag. Re-closing plus more mask-wearing seems — seems — to be bringing cases down a bit, and deaths will eventually follow 1/

        But the people who brought you the 2nd wave are clearly eager to repeat their mistakes, and we can expect a major outbreak of complacency. Plus schools reopening, many in person. I hope I'm wrong, but I have a very bad feeling about the fall 2/

        Ask us again in January. Until then, the answer is always “no”.

        I thought we were still in the first wave. Most doctors seem to think we never got through it.
