There's no easy answer tbh. A clean bill of health where there are no cases to spread which is unlikely, immunity of over 60% of the population which will take significant time, or treatment is found especially a vaccine which goes back to immunity. The logistics of administering a vaccine when one is found is a bit of a nightmare as every country scrambles for what will be a limited supply. Alternatively maybe if we all get to grips with the whole infection control protocols and there is a downward trend in new cases then restrictions could be lifted eg there isnt a risk of the health service being overwhelmed. I think June is ambitious. But society will have to return to normality somehow irrespective of the numbers and it could just be a risk we will all live with - the alternative is to keep things as they are and possibly lockdown society for months to come and that will bring its own issues as people get impatient, rebel against restrictions, looting happens, so what will be the lesser of the 2 evils. Many families will be scarred by the end of this i fear. September, when the decide on schools reopening etc then the likes of LoI will go again. But its all guess work - if every single person in the country was compliant with the advice being given then June would be realistic but when ye hear of pubs still opening and sneaking punters in and people saying they dont care well that will perpetuate the problem.
