There's zero chance of normality before Autumn. It's hardly "panic makers" when we have all observed what uncontrolled spread of the virus results in - the highest deaths per capita in the world.

Schools, even where open, are not open to all. Those who can work from home are still doing so - that's demand for retail and hospitality in major towns and cities that will be absent.

While the "mild flu" fantasists can dream of a return to normal ahead of proper mechanisms to control the virus it simply won't happen because of the deadly consequences.
