Many of the "reopening" discussions refer to flattening the curve so hospitals not overwhelmed. But even if the hospitals aren't overwhelmed, there is no proven therapeutic. We've seen it isn't just the elderly and those with preexisting conditions who can be severely affected.
When social distancing measures abated, virus still circulating, creating more infections. Areas reopened risk resurgence. Without adequate testing, without therapeutics or vaccine how will "reopening" happen? People who can work-from-home will. Schools may continue online.
As in China, people will be reluctant to shop, go to restaurants, gather even if some of the #StayHome orders are lifted. And it won't just be the medically fragile or elderly who stay in. There are too many reports of young healthy people becoming severely ill.
