Based on the COVID-19 pandemic, do you think we will see many changes in the way Americans live their lives?
A couple that I can see happening:
Many more people working from home than before. Why make people come to an office situation when a secure server can allow them to do the same work from home. Less office space needed for the businesses, less traffic on the roads, much less chance of spreading infectious diseases, including the common cold, among an office full of people.
Home schooling. Either voluntarily by the parents, or high schools and colleges doing it on their own for the same reasons as above. My older daughter is starting her on-line classes to finish this semester today, so we will see how that goes. I have never taken an on-line college course, but I did plenty of work training on-line before I retired and it seemed to work just as good as traveling to a location and sitting in a conference room with others who had to travel.
Things that already happen that will grow tremendously IMO - grocery and food delivery. Shop on-line and have someone deliver it to your house, or stop in the market parking lot and pick it up. Either way, a time save and less public contact than going up and down the aisles with all kinds of ill people who used the cart before you, or who picked up the item and put it back on the shelf right before you picked it up. (thought of this one while shopping at Wally World yesterday - creeped me out even though I am not a germophobe. Businesses like Door Dash growing rapidly.
Any others?
