  • The coronavirus is surging across the U.S. at a rate we haven't seen since the pandemic began.
  • New studies suggest that reducing the quarantine period from 14 days down to 10 could actually help prevent coronavirus outbreaks.
  • One study from Yale found that a seven-day quarantine, followed by a PCR test at the end, is an optimal guideline.

While vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna may ultimately help put the coronavirus pandemic behind us, it's going to take a good few months -- at the very least -- before we can return to a pre-pandemic way of life. In a best-case scenario, Dr. Anthony Fauci believes that we might approach "some form of normality" by September of 2021. And that timeline, of course, hinges on how many Americans choose to take a vaccine.

In the interim, the coronavirus pandemic is surging across all corners of the country. Over the past week, the U.S. has been seeing an average of 215,000 new COVID-19 infections every single day. Meanwhile, the death rate is rising rapidly and many ICUs are operating at near or full capacity. One of the reasons why the coronavirus is spreading so quickly can be traced back to pandemic fatigue, which is to say that many people at this point are simply sick and tired of adhering to coronavirus safety guidelines.
