I'm not into letting all go and just let the pandemic take it's course.
We need tight restrictions now to choke the spread rate.
Then we loosen slightly ... but maintain hygiene and test/trace/isolate process.
This is the "flatten the curve" strategy.
See article called "the hammer and the dance".
During the dance phase we allow a slow rate of infection that the complete medical infrastructure can handle.
I.e : anyone who needs ICU can get it.
This drags it all out ... till a vaccine comes along and can be provided. That's been said to be 12-18 months.
But given the seriousness of this scourge, there is an almighty effort to find a vaccine.
I'm tipping it won't be 18 months.
Hoping for 12.

Yes. Track and trace will be part of our life.
But ... still hoping that as things progress, even though this is not all over in say around 6 months, there will be enough recovered persons in the community (That's the herd part) to allow more loosening.
And if I'm a recovered person by then ... I'm back in.

I'm looking forward to having my first session again ... in many months time.
