One of the most compelling questions left up in the air following Infinity War is what effect the Decimation had on the world at large.

We got the slightest hint of it in Ant-Man and the Wasp's post-credits scene, where the emergency broadcast system was heard amid an eerily silent San Francisco, but the Endgame trailer didn't really expand on it (beyond a quick glimpse of a seemingly abandoned Avengers HQ).

The irony of Thanos' "balancing" of the universe, of course, is that it would likely throw worldwide infrastructure into chaos for the foreseeable future, and hopefully Endgame will do what the majority of the MCU's movies don't: examine what effect all the superhero shenanigans have on the lives of regular people.
