Without sensible measures people will only stay home themselves and not spend money in any case. City centres will never recover.
I did the maths a few posts ago. Sensible measures have been taken by way of past lockdowns and an accelerating vaccination programme. The convergence of vaccinations and antibodies through infections is not many months (or weeks) away. Then we move into normalcy as per annual booster/variant jabs.

As regards city centres - yes, the damage has been done, I would say. At least in the short term.
