    As we have seen with the Spanish Flu, the second wave is typically one of the deadliest.
    as a side note, when should I sell my stocks again before the next crash? maybe a month from now since the protests are going to trigger the next wave faster. In my state, they are thinking of opening some businesses and gyms soon again. probably a week or 2.

    Wouldn't a second wave already be factored into the current price?

    but they are open. Feel free to get in to spread it or infect yourself.

    The people who need a gym won't mind at all, though.

    In my country we are allowed to go to the gym since 2 weeks ago and next week we are allowed to not wear masks in the supermarket (we have to wear them in public transport).

    Well, we were one of the first country to lock down at the first wave and the public and industrial opinion reached a bad point already...

    In my opinion, there would be another wave. It's just a matter of when and how the health system and the society can withstand it. To 'eliminate' the virus, we would need a high herd immunity (I think the latest number was 60% of the population should be immun?) or a successful vaccine which needs at least 1 year (well you know... biology is quite random compared to the other sciences, (micro-) organisms don't always do what they should and vice-versa )

    Autumn is usually another perfect time to get sick (think of the common flu, less sunlight, lower temperature which switches constantly around, etc.). I expect there to be a higher rate of infections and death...
    Summer (in the northern spehere) is a better time to boost your immune systeme (sunlight, moving a lot more around, etc.) and it is less likely to develop a deadly version the illness. So in this time, the virus could try to slowly infect healthy people and their immune system can react better. Then there are more people who recovered from it and are immun.

    But everything us just speculation, biology just do what it wants (looking back at the zika-virus which just disappeared after 2 years, there were no real counter measures developed)
