Lol what? This has nothing to do with being a doomer. It doesn't matter if they do this plan on his second day or his 100th day, there is no safe way to open back up until everyone is vaccinated. These new strains don't give a shit about your paper masks and letting everyone walk around while vaccine rollout is going at a snail's pace is just letting more new strains mutate.
Acknowledging this isn't being a doomer, you have to acknowledge it to even have a game plan in the first place.
The doomer mindset is taking an anodyne statement about how they'll tackle coronavirus (and almost certainly bungle it) in order to be able to open schools and businesses and acting like the sky is falling because of it.
Nothing changed, the dem plan will still be insufficient.
I should definitely say it's impossible to do it IN AMERICA before near 100% vaccination. If you don't have a lot of cases then obviously this isn't as big a concern, but America has allowed this thing to run absolutely wild. Keep in mind these numbers are like this while tons of people trying to stay home as much as possible doing everything they can individually to limit it's spread. If they begin to force people back into schools and work while the situation is still far from controlled then essentially every school, place of work, gathering, amusement park etc will be a super spreader event. We've seen the spread through the holidays already and that's with historically low travel in the US.
If you don't have a lot of cases then yes there actually is a pathway for a safe reopening, it's like being on 3rd already. America on the other hand hasn't even hit the ball yet.

I mean, Australia is not really comparable because you can usually count the number of community cases in the entire country on one hand.
