>And on April 7th it’s not like COVID will cease to exist... This is the most important part. Its not clear whats being done to prep for the end of lockdowns.

  We've seen in examples like South Korea that it is possible to keep the virus in check by doing extensive testing, contact tracing, and temperature checks. We don't have those available right now and are looking at disaster if we don't lock down. Our testing capacity will grow significantly and by later we can take those measures and get back closer to normal life.

  Unless the lockdowns are extremely effective, a large part of those who will get sick will already have been and thus immune. They can also be extended beyond April 7th.
