    Culturally, I'm now noticing long term affects from this. I don't see hand shakes ever coming back. People will likely continue to social distance from strangers in stores, some get a panicked look if you get too close and others including myself just back away is someone moves in. It's become second nature. A lot of people will demand to work from home and I expect employers will accommodate them. Businesses don't need to rent the space, they can also relocate anywhere for what facilities they do need.

    The decline of churches has been accelerated. Online services is becoming the norm for some very devoted church goers. For others, it's simply forgotten.

    The impact of this is huge and there's no escaping that. Time will tell if we will move forward or backward from this.
