I actually read an article about that in an immunological journal I stumbled across. Theoretically if we isolate and don't get this less virulent strain, there could be a lessening of cases over the summer, then in the fall it mutates to more virulent and we have no resistance.
IIRC, the Spanish Flu was similar.
