This article seems to have an odd relationship with nuanced facts.
While it is correct that nobody knows for sure how long it will take until medicine or vaccination are available, there are estimates that one can use for planning. But the article goes from "there is a level of uncertainty" to "impossible to know, let's ignore it completely".
Similarly, while the article is technically correct that the US is currently doing deficit spending, it really isn't the immutable fact that they present it as. It would be quite easy to levy taxes so that there's no deficit. Taxing the rich could finance the current level of stimulus spending for years, but the article goes from "we'll need to make adjustments to our system" to "it is impossible".
