On topic, The greater majority don't want to open the borders and even if they did, no-one over 50 will take the risk of becoming sick in a foreign country and face the possibility of being stuck there for months at their own expense. (uninsurable). The second quarter of 2021 is optimistic but a good starting point. Personally I think it will be much longer before confidence is restored and right now we haven't even started, the pandemic itself is only getting started globally. We in Australia are fortunate and naturally impatient simply because few of us have been touched by it yet. For me personally I don't even know anyone close to me that has been infected let alone died. So it's quite understandable our young people think the way they do.
