After the coronavirus pandemic is over, "normal life" will change, and unfortunately probably not get back to "normal" for a long time. The main change is that people would be more aware of their surroundings and cleanliness. First, in the public places , such as playgrounds, parks or open areas, more people are going to be spread out. They won't be as crowded as earlier. For example, in the Arboretum in West Roxbury, there is a tree festival in the late spring/early fall where everything is in bloom. It got cancelled this year, but it is always packed. When it comes back next year, there probably will be less people, because of germs and even social distancing. At restaurants or supermarkets, this will change as well. The workers will take more time washing down tables and maybe wear gloves from now on. Finally, with school areas like the cafeteria, gym or classrooms in general, cleaning up would be more enforced than before. Like restaurants, the desk and other used items would be washed down more frequently. For instance, before lunch, more students would want to wash their hands, or get hand sanitizer before eating. All in all, getting back to "normal" will take some time.

A- think it is going to change the way people act towards each other.  It's going to make people more cautious to their surroundings and it could make people really nervous about their surroundings. Big events with a lot of people may never be the same and could have a small limit on who could go to it.
B-  For business I think at the beginning they're going to slowly come back and that means that their income is going to be low for a while and it is going to be hard for them to get back where they were.
C- For school and learning I think it is going to be hard to get used to the amount of work we do in school everyday. At home we have 2 or 3 assignments then were done but when the whole pandemic is over were going to have to go back to 6 hours of work everyday so I definitely think it is going to be hard at first.
D- For going back to school and the safety part of that I think it is going to be very complicated because if one person has the virus the whole school could eventually have it, but at the same time it would be unfair to let one grade back but not the others. When we go back I think some people are going to be nervous of getting it and they're going to be scared to get close to anyone and even make contact with them.

I don't think that much after the Coronavirus will be very different. Obviously, things won't reopen right away. They need time to prepare for business again. Gradually, things will start opening again, and life will start feeling the same in some ways. The economy will also go up when the pandemic is over because so many people have had debt because of the Coronavirus, and unemployment is extremely low right now. This is the lowest the economy has been in a very long time.
Unfortunately, for some people, life may never feel normal because so many people have lost their lives and many more people will. It is so sad.
There most likely will be a vaccine that people will have to get for it in the future because during other pandemics, vaccines were later created to have resistance and possibly immunity. For example, a long time ago, there was a flu epidemic of some kind, and now we have a flu shot that protects us from it, or makes it weaker.
Public places will probably be more precautious about germs, and try to make sure everyone is spreading the least amount of germs possible.
Overall we have and are learning a lot from this pandemic that will prepare us for the future better.

After the coronavirus pandemic is over, normal life will change in multiple ways. I think that the government, schools, and businesses will end up working on and creating new policies to help prevent this from happening in the future. I think that governments around the world will try to come up with ways to help new viruses from spreading in the future. Many countries did not know what to do which caused chaos around the world. If different countries worked together after this was over, they could come up with a safe plan for future pandemics. I think that schools will spend time coming up with better ways to give students work to do from home. Currently, many different districts are handling this situation differently. This is creating a confusing situation and may make catching up on school work challenging in the future. Lastly, I think that many businesses will create ways to stay open in case of something happening like this in the future. Many businesses have been affected by this pandemic and are being forced to either close or come up with ways to stay open. Because of the many things being negatively impacted by this pandemic, I think that the government, schools, and businesses will have to change after this is over.

I think people will be pretty cautious, especially after the first few weeks, maybe even still keeping away from others to a certain degree. I don’t think public places will get nearly as many people as before the outbreak and some might still be paranoid and buy extra just-in-case supplies. Schools and other places that gather lots of people may take more time to think about sanitation and maybe even establish rules to let less people in. However, after a few months have gone by (if the virus doesn’t come back), I think the energy will have died down and everything will go back to how it was before, relatively normal. Rules about less assembly may still be in place and cleaning may still be a concern, but I definitely don’t think they will be as strict as right now. If there is no sign of it coming back, why should there be any worry? If it does come back, though, we will hopefully have the cure by then and it still shouldn’t cause as much fear. People may still be more anxious and careful, unlike how I believe they probably wouldn’t if it doesn’t come back.

After the pandemic, everything will be different. I think that after the pandemic, the public places will definitely change. They will be more clean than they were before because everyone will take into consideration how easily germs spread since they have lived through a fast spreading pandemic. I also think that the restaurants and businesses will change. I feel like they will put safe food items on the restaurant menus. For businesses, I feel like they will prevent people from bringing certain foods into the work space. School and learning will also change. I think that everything will have to be taught super fast so we catch up for all of the work and learning we have missed. Also, we might skip over some less important material. I feel like the school health and safety stuff won't change. I don't feel like it will because the rules were already specific enough. I do feel like everyone will just be cleaner in general though because of the germs. Lastly, I feel like this will all happen because now, when we go out we see everyone wearing masks and using hand sanitizer etc. It just shows that things wont change after the pandemic because people will still be afraid and want to be prepared etc and stay extra clean and safe.

After the corona virus pandemic is over, our normal lives wont be the same as before. I believe there will be more people in public areas like, playgrounds, sidewalks, and concerts. This is because others will want to take advantage of the fact that their finally allowed to go to all these places, once they are free to the public again. This is most likely, since many find it boring/unentertaining staying at home, causing many people (when this is over) to rush to everything that was closed down during the pandemic. I definetlty think there will be more rules and precuations in buisness areas to prevent another pandemic from occurring. Before the corona virus, washing hands and wearing gloves (for example in resturants) wasnt taken very seriously. Hopefully now it will be for at least the majority. Going back to school is also gonna be really hard, knowing there is so much work to catch up on. I also think teachers are going to be even more strict on homework and school work because of all the weeks missed. For health and saftey in school, I would assume everyone would be required to wear a mask of some sort, and to wash there hands after coughing, sneezing, ect. Finally, in the cafeteria, everyone is going to be more carful about sharing food with someone else or eating food that has fallen on the floor, etc. Overall, I believe almost everyone will be more cautious and carful about germs and preventing them from spreding. I also think that others will realize the importance of just washing your hands and how it can make a big difference.
