Two sides yelling the sky is falling for different reasons.

Can't we all just get along? Evidently not but here are a couple observations from me that don't make any sense at all.
These may all be if statements because the two sides don't really want to make valid concerns from the other side any part of a workable solution but

IF the side that is so afraid of the virus spreading would agree to opening up while at the same time expanding regulations and mandatory compliance that would result in the numbers not being affected,

and

IF the side that that wants to go back to work because of the economy, lives affected and all the good things that would happen when we do would agree to do so at the same time expanding regulations and mandatory compliance that would result in the numbers not being affected.

If we had all sides agree to go back to work, that maybe the way we did it was wrong and we could manage the virus better, I believe we could all get back to work and live a close to normal life till there is a vaccine ready or we learn more about Covid and adjust policy again.
The problem being the people for closed are stifling the economy and the people for open are acting in a way that the spread is more likely to happen. We can't agree on how to just get along.

What happens if there never is a cure? As far as I know, we still don’t have a SARS vaccine. And what happens if the virus doesn’t eventually just go away, and we don’t have a vaccine? What if the inevitable is just that we have to get back to life and deal with the idea maybe it’s just always around? If that happens, when do we decide we just deal with the risk of getting sick and go back to living? Or does life just literally change forever all over the world? Let’s say 18 months from now, we still don’t have a vaccine, and we see numbers just kinda stay where they are, what do we do then?

The goalposts keep moving.

As long as we never max out our medical capacity to treat sick people, eventually something has to give, even if we’re seeing new cases every day.

I am like HasBen's pic. Willing to do what it takes to make it the best it can be.

Whatever happens, working together is better than having two different sides, neither wanting to give in to the other.
I thought I read early on from the people developing a vaccine that this one should not be too hard to develop. How they know that I have no clue but I did read that and we already have a couple that are being tested.
How often a person can be reinfected, if its going to be as dominant every year, if its going to mutate etc.

All to be discovered. Remember, they did not know how long it would take to figure out HIV. All we can do is keep doing something and we should start doing it.

Had the "experts" not invented social distancing then bazillions woulda died.

This is the stupidest thing in the history of mankind, corona Karen's of the world along with their pansy husband, sad sacks, broke bum types have banded together and for some reason bureaucrat types listened to them. Its unbelievable

"I have not missed an hour of work ....... why don't you go to work and stop worrying about everyone else" Or something like that. Maybe my favorite post of all time. Not sure who it was. Lol
