Man, I'd fly a red flag just for the hell of it and get a one week break from everyone and everything lol. Rent myself like 100 movies and just chill right out.

RE: the OP's question. Who knows? I've always thought it would be pretty cool if humanity just got together one year and decided every single person on earth had to hole up in their house for a two-week holiday of staying indoors to try to rid ourselves of the common cold. Then reality gets in the way and you start thinking of all the essential services that have to keep running, etc. etc. Still, if it were somehow possible wouldn't the cold virus just die?

Yes, I realise how stupid/stonerish that sounds.
