Let's say we have already hit peak and the next few days we stay below 1000 deaths/day (this is not a prediction but a hypothetical). At what point do you ease restrictions on the extremely low risk people? We obviously can't shelter in place until a vaccine comes out. Do we wait until a treatment has been proven to be effective? Do we wait until a certain percentage of America has immunity? What is your metric?

I think it would help if the weather would warm up so that would kill it off a little quicker but this cold front came through and that keeps it going i think. i don't have any answers to know what to do but i don't think it's healthy to be cooped up for Americans. My problem is having COPD it could kill me but I'm willing to go about my normal activities I just want to go fishing but not in the cold.
