Don't we run the risk of doing the following with covid-19:?

Sorry if I caused any confusion, I was simply using the "course of antibiotics" as a metaphor for a procedure that one has to complete in a systematic way, or else what you are fighting will come back in an even greater infestation.  

  You might imagine my chagrin when our commander in chief espoused using the Z-Pak (which when he said it, I was thinking of Zicam, which I remembered actually WAS supposed to be a type of antiviral.  This is a case of pharmaceutical

pharmaceutical name mixup like, Xanax and Zantac, on my part.) anyway, he said that the z-pak clears people up etc. but the problem is that the Z-pak is an antibiotic, and he was mistaking one disease for another, and wanted to use the wrong treatment.  Then I realized that just the night before, I had used the example of taking (part of) a course of antibiotics to illustrate the mindset of people who think that everything is better now that they've seen some improvement.  

  I said...

 I said to myself,"Oh! $#^*$@!  Somebody out there will think that I'M espousing using an antibiotic to treat a virus...NAH!  They'll all see that it's metaphor for something that comes back twice as bad if you don't beat it on the first try."  But, sure enough somebody out there DID take it to mean that I thought that we should fight a virus with an antibiotic, let me be clear I don't.  The only real treatment for this one is to not get it, and th

and that involves following a procedure, and not letting up on that procedure once you see a little improvement.

  To make up for the confusion I caused with my metaphor/analogy hybrid, here are some other perhaps equally confusing examples of thinking with your wishbone. Here is some illustrative hyperbole for your reading pleasure:

  Some random guy says,"I poisoned the roaches in both bedrooms, the living room, and half the kithen, the roaches behind the fridge have probably learned their lesson."  He also said, " Fighting this wildfire is really hard, we've hot it knocked down to a couple of hot spots in the south, but they're really small, I'm hungry let's eat dinner, and get a good night's sleep, because this prom isn't going to throw itself!"

On 04-14-2020 I asked the original question, and I'm afraid that not enough people had heard of what the media are now calling,"The Rebound, Spiking, The Surge, The Second Wave, or The Resurgence."  Now it's 04-24-2020 and everybody either is or isn't afraid of a relapse.
