that is where this is at now?
Either some moderate risks are taken by people or there is an infinite bubble that lasts for years, decade plus. This virus isn't going away, period and hibernation is a short term bandaid of minimizing and containment which actually works against the overall betterment long term results.
The only way to defeat it is Herd Immunity. Flu virus has been here for years and vaccines really don't work that well as people get the shot and still get the flu.
This will be the same. It is a terrible event and all paths are very undesirable, but at some point, people and the country will have to make a tough decision or this will go on indefinitely...
