Let me put this another way. Lets assume a cure/vaccination is not possible. Ever. Is the best choice to cower in our basement until we die of old age?
I think the answer is obvious, no, we take all prudent measures to avoid passing the flu, but we live our lives to the fullest extent possible until our days are done.
Of course, this is not an option for those Trump haters who just want to stir up shit and create an issue to use against him in the upcoming election.

Nobody is suggesting you cower in your basement. There was a window where a short period of basement cowering would have been productive to buy time to make preparations and POSSIBLY contain the virus to manageable levels, but we botched it here in the US because BOTH SIDES politicized the virus and made it tribal, but whitie righties of course landed on the retarded side of taking no precautions and pretending it didn't exist.
All I want people to do is wear a fucking mask and take some simple precautions, like maybe don't crowd into a bar for a while then go visit your elderly grandparents. It's entirely plausible that some of us can make it until they develop a vaccine without getting this. Not good for the economy but neither is being ravaged by a virus which has a small but non-negligible random chance of either:
1. Killing you
2. Damaging your brain and/or peripheral nerves
3. Damaging your lungs
4. Using you to get to someone vulnerable
To those of us who subscribe to Jesus's teachings, killing somebody else through your greed, selfishness, or carelessness is as wrong.
Though this virus is typically mild, it is must worse than the flu. It has a much higher chance of picking a random, otherwise healthy person and simply detonating one or more of their organs or clotting their blood and causing strokes or vascular dementia.
