Steve,
That's seems like a helpful way to speed up the process.
Carl,
It’s being reported that an antibody test will soon be available to identify people, like your family, who may already be immune. That would get some people moving again and random testing will help to gauge the level of community immunity.
I wonder how expensive and wide used the antibody test will be. It seems like the only real test for " herd immunity".

Michael, not to worry, your governor of the great state of Texas is ready for the state to open up to normal today.
WI just locked down (stay home other than essential business) for a minimum of another 30 days.

I'm sorry it is the Lt. Governor,

We are on lock down here in Memphis as well

We are locked down in Michigan as well. Although I do see a lot open and about.
We are on "lockdown" in my employer's county (Hunt), dallas county, denton county, and Tarant country (Ft Worth...or will be soon). My county of residence, Collin County, issued a "stay at home" order....but, said EVERYONE should still go to work: specifically, "ALL JOBS ARE ESSENTIAL." Fortunately, all of the member cities have passed their own stay-at-home orders...so, its largely a distinction without a difference.
That said, I'm in the Defence Industral Base as identified by the Dept. of Homeland Security. So, I have my hall-pass letter to allow me safe passage. :-\ My employer has allowed about 50% of the office-work staff to work from home---about 2/3rds of my team is WFH. But, all manufacturing and management are required to come into the office every day...though some departments have split into shifts.
Yesterday the roads were full of cars---and most shops were open. I guess we will see how / if it changes over the next 48 hours as the straggling cities and counties orders go into effect.
Given how slowly and inneffectively we have reacted...I just don't see how this is going to end well. By the time we test "enough" to know the herd/community is NOT immune there won't be many options left.

but the worse they do at isolation the faster it will ramp up (the glass half full view).
Not sure that's a "glass half full" view. It wont take long at all to swamp out medical services.
Currently in the US, 2% (~1000) of active cases are serious/critical. Worldwide that number is 4%. Of course, that's based on the data available today.

Its been 2 weeks in CA of work from home(shelter in place)with only essential business open. Grocery stores are busy with most patrons being respectful of distance/space. My local chain(safeway)has put into place hours to allow those over 70 to shop alone(4 hrs per week). It is super quiet on the roads compared to normal...every strip mall is a ghost town!
On the fun fact side...I never new I had so many children, dogs and young parents in my neighborhood! They are out in force walking or biking(finally)along with us over the hill types
The Medium.com article posted here is outstanding...Hammer and Dance! We aren't avoiding it!

Viewed a todays WI case graph, days versus positive cases and it shows a hint of decrease in positive cases, BUT the graph does not show total case test per day, therefore???
EDIT:
Very interesting, no test kit/test time required.

I see California has declared cannabis stores "essential." To paraphrase "Ted", "Shit. It's COVID-19 I gotta get high."

For people who like to call BS, please follow through with the Kinsa data and report back. Commonly fever is listed as the first indicator of coronavirus.
"Kinsa's data is available for public and scientific analysis and the company plans to submit it to a medical journal soon."
Benchie-
The only thing I found on Kinsa's site is a study published back in January.
https://www.kinsahealth.co/research/
I also went through the medrxiv site linked in the article but couldn't find anything that mentions Kinsa or appears to have anything to do with the news article. So, maybe the study is out there somewhere....but, they didn't make it easy to find. One might wonder "why"...If they really wanted us to read it, why didn't they link the actual article instead of the top level link to the hosting site (assuming the article DOES actually exist somewhere). Its easy to put up a link in a news article that they KNOW no one will follow.
One might also wonder "why the CDC has ignored requests to engage with Kinsa."---Conspiracy theories, notwithstanding, maybe the CDC knows something we don't about Kinsa.
