There is no all clear. All the ‘flatten the curves’ are flawed. When you flatten the curve, the curve is extended. By flattening the curve, we have extended the amount of time the virus will be infecting people.

In a sense, it is critical to "drag" this out, as it will give our hospitals more capability to place people on ventilators, and it will allow more time for anti-viral medications/immunizations. So, in a sense, slowing this thing down would be a minor miracle.
