Lockdown until we have a vaccine is not feasible. 12-18 months are the wishful thinking, best case scenarios. We've never gotten a vaccine to market that fast. It could easily be 3-4 years.

If we are going for herd immunity then you have more leeway to open up. You want the virus spreading a little faster in that case, since the immunity you get from COVID-19 may not last. You just don't want hospitals getting overwhelmed.

This is why we need treatments and they need to stop trying to sabotage HCQ+Zpack+Zinc and give it some real studies. It is meant to reduce virus replication so giving it someone already on a ventilator is too late.
