Permanent cultural and behavioral changes from the pandemic (2 Viewers)

Good discussion and I agree with many points.

Personally, I think hand shaking will never be as prevalent. I agree with the posters on the increase in working form home. I think telemedicine will come and be here to stay.

One thing nobody has mentioned is that I think this pandemic will kill the Anti-Vax movement. Nobody will be more concerned about theoretical (disproven) rare side effects of vaccines when the risks of out-of-control diseases are so fresh on everyone's mind.

Whenever that shit goes away, I 'll go back to hand-shaking.
It tells you a f*ckin awful lot about people...

I am in the process of setting up my practice on TeleVet to stay in touch with home bound clients.

One way or the other!

I like the idea of starting business meetings with fist bumps.

Re: masks, I have seen over and over that they are effective if the people who are sick wear them. Which just makes sense, too: if you cough into a mask, it’s automatically covered.

So if everybody were wearing a mask...
