Interesting points from the podcast: This expert is predicting this thing won't stop until we get herd immunity or a vaccine. To get herd immunity 70% of the population would need to get and recover from the virus. He explains in great detail why he thinks a vaccine is likely 12-18 months out.

He predicts our only option here is going to be trying to thread the needle with social distancing and various forms of "soft" lock-downs to avoid overwhelming the hospitals until we get that herd immunity or the vaccine.
