12 months would be great but given the development of a vaccine has NEVER EVEN COME CLOSE to hitting that mark it seems overly optimistic. Further, don't be naive to the politics involved. Nobody wants to say it would take 4 years. That being said, I agree nobody knows for sure.
I'll spell it out. Its unlikely that any country can maintain such restrictions for 4 years. The economic social and psychological consequences are likely to be devastating. Further as many have pointed out social distancing is designed to slow the spread not stop it so after a certain point slowly down the spread becomes moot.
