Buffets in general until we get a "cure" Once we get a cure, it will return to business as usual. Until the cure happens travel and anything involving groups will be non existent.

Yessir. Any packed venue. If so, it’ll be a long while coming back. Church ? Don’t know but thinking pretty quick.

I hope selling out the US manufacturing infrastructure. Bring back made in the USA drugs. So I hope dependence on foreign drug manufacture. I also hope the faith in socialist medicine dies.

Cruise Ships may take a while but they’ll be back. Prices will drop and folks will respond.

Yessir. Any packed venue. If so, it’ll be a long while coming back. Church ? Don’t know but thinking pretty quick. If people are thinking it's safe to go into a packed church with folks belting out hymns, why would they not consider going to a stadium event? Do they think Jesus will save them from the Corona if it's still hanging around? Did that work for the singers in WA? I'm guessing when the all clear horn blows, folks are going to go back to business as usual but perhaps hand sanitizers and Clorox wipes will continue to be big sellers. Along with "Johnnie, don't touch that doorknob, use a towel for Pete's sake. Do you want the Corona to get you? Could be an old person touched that last. Maybe an old black person from Chicago even" Geno

Many of the retail shops that we've known. There will be new brick and mortar stores , but I think the movement to e-retailing is accelerating.

We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

It depends. If we have a vaccine or if we have a cheap, reliable, and readily available test and over the counter medications, then the picture is different than if we have neither.
Without an effective prevention or very readily available cure, I think we load arena / stadium sports and music events, monster truck shows, county fairs. Can you picture 4th of July without a parade, food booths, folks gathering for fireworks? I think mass transportation fails .. I sure wouldn't ride a train or take a bus under the circumstances unless I had zero choice. The airline industry takes a big hit ... to be profitable, they have to PACK us sardines into the can as tightly as possible. Can't maintain 6 feet of separation there. Other things ... fishing guides ... how do you put people in a boat yet maintain separation? What about the drive to hunting camp .. can't really car-pool nor share a cabin w/ people who aren't immediate family while still maintaining separation. What about ceremonies ... weddings? The couple, 2 witnesses, and a judge .. and everyone else gets a photo? And how does that affect those people who side-line making cakes, renting dresses and tuxes. Taxis? Limo services?
If we have to continue as things are, the cost of groceries, etc has to go way up to pay the wages of the additional people keeping the stores clean while distributing that cost over a smaller number of customers.
On the other hand, if we get a vaccine or reliable, quick treatment, things could go back to pretty normal pretty quickly. I think the longer this lasts, the more chance of longer lasting changes as well as we get more used to doing things differently.
Anyone who thinks there's two sides to everything hasn't met a M�bius strip.
Here be dragons ...

I hope professional sports takes a serious nose dive.
For far to long, athletes acted like we needed them, and not the other way around.
Let’s see how well the team owners pay the athletes with empty stadiums.

I sincerely hope casinos are top of the list. Give all of those maids and croupiers jobs in manufacturing.
Let Las Vegas dry up and blow away in the wind with the tumble weeds.
Let people put their money some place it can grow, rather than just line mobsters' pockets.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
