A comment on West’s incompetent response to pandemic will hasten the power-shift to the east. Parent comment
It's best guessed at being several years.
But 6-24 months is very possible but it's not really relevant to an article claiming the East has beaten the West, 6 months would redefine everything.
> Is there any reason to believe we get can it through 60-80% of our society within 12 months?
It's a good question, let me check the "flatten the curve" graphs that are everywhere that people are using to shift policy.
Jokes aside the Imperial College report put it at ~4 months untouched for instance.
So fully reopen with social distancing measures like masks, then 12 months seems possible.
