Testing everyone won't "give us our lives back" but it will make billions or trillions of dollars for unscrupulous corporations that promise us salvation from Covid-19 if we use their product(s).
Testing everyone won't do anything useful b/c there is no Covid-19 vaccine or "cure" available and we will not be able to do tracking. But again it will make beaucoup $$ for medical charlatans.
For each person one of two things will happen:
1) They will be exposed to Covid-19 and survive or
2) They will be exposed to Covid-19 and die.
Most people are unlikely to die from Covid-19 but can only "get their lives back" by catching the virus and surviving. Once they do then they will have happy normal lives. The small percentage of people likely to die from Covid-19 should "shelter in place" and pray for a vaccine. [I suggest prayer b/c of the sad state of science at this time and the way in which prayer seems to calm some people. I'm not much of a prayer person myself, but ask me about it later when I'm in front of the firing squad.]
We should re-open schools and businesses, let people make their own choices and provide assistance to those who must remain sheltered instead of trying to buoy up the entire frigging economy with dollars. That would "give us our lives back"!
Again, people at risk should "shelter in place", e.g., teachers at hi risk should stay away from schools, children should stay away from elderly persons at risk, etc.
