You don’t know what the antibody results since we don’t have an accurate test yet. And that will really tell how infectious and how deadly this really is. Most likely a lot more have been exposed than previously predicted and most did not have symptoms before generating immunity.
Many on this board argue that theaters won’t open until a vaccine is made. I doubt that. Look at protests now to go back to normal across the country. I think that will roll over into theater. People will take the risk to go to movies and theater and sporting event. I will. The question is how many will do that and is that big enough group to sustain the events.
I think if it opens, the landscape will be different. The tourist shows might not survive especially the foreign tourist attended shows. Tourism will be one of the last sectors to come back. So broadway might be more new shows that close early since locals saw it and there aren’t tourists to keep it going. |
