Are there any measures where we can say it is safe to start heading back to normal?

What death rate is it time to say, close it down? What death rate says hey it is time to shut things down?

Do you actually drool a little bit when someone dies of COVID-19?

Testing of patients for covid19 should go on, irrespective of a very low death rate.
Even if it takes up to a year or so.

But when can small businesses reopen? When can you go out to eat or see a movie?

Someone suggested only with the strict conditions of social distancing, and disinfect, disinfect, disinfect!
It's going to be a clean world, I say!

What if new cases drop to zero in a state?

Personal opinion, with zero new cases for a period, say a month, then you're ok to go nuts.

Lots of fear for a virus that kills about 1 person in every 500 people who get it, usually a person over 70.

Lol, what are the chances of being killed by this thing outside the Northeast?

20k of the 25k deaths in the US are from the Northeastern part of the nation.
