So, if the virus was deemed to be less damaging than thought or cured, there would still be damage to the balance sheet; hence i don't think it will recover too previous highs.
I did ponder what I would do if it were me in charge. It's an ethical black hole that goes deeper and deeper the more you think about it. Then i realised that I'm not in charge, and I can't change anything, and I don't have to think about it. So i stopped thinking about it.
PS: kind of sick of people taking what i say, turning it into something different, then having a go at me for the thing they just made up:
"...the govt has set out to 'damage tourism and logs etc' is simply beyond comprehension..."
Rude and stupid.
