When will the SIP end?

I say in May, maybe May 11.

Deaths and number of ill people is slackening somewhat in the SF Bay Area. Maybe in three weeks the curve here will have flattened enough for the powers that be to lift SIP but to continue encouraging we wear masks, gloves, and washing our hands a lot.

What do you think?

June 1 would be my guess. I think they will start to relax a few things for other economic essential workers in the middle of May. I doubt bars and restaurants will be able to open until fall.

Like everyone. Just a guess.

I would say stages. First one mid-May. Second sometime in June. All open sometime in late summer.

First would be the public employees not working.

Second would be service type jobs.

Third Restaurants etc.

It will end at the end of May.

Rules and regulations will be in place by then. We will have a gameplan to go about life while playing strict defense.

-Mandatory Mask in public with tickets to those who ignore.

Social distancing

Hand washing

Gas pump attendants pumping gas only like Oregon or atleast an attendant sanitizing after every use

Automatic doors or atleast doors then can be pushed open both directions in public locations should be addressed

Where is the damn hand sanitizer in public? Have they started making any?

June 1 is about 12 weeks, which I think Wuhan was. We can do better. Let’s go with May 29.

Freedom on the day summer begins. Yeah!

It ends for me on May 1st, but I expect the official date will be May 15.

The current models show daily new deaths declining to very low levels by April 30. I expect that the official movement on SIP will trail that, but I hope they're proactive about things. I do know that many large companies are already well down the road of planning how they are going to reopen their businesses, what protocols they're going to use, etc. Even two weeks will have a big impact on a lot of lives and businesses.

It will end 15 days after the last positive test in the region.

There will be positive tests in every State every week for years. Even after we have a vaccine, there will still be people catching this virus. Total elimination at this point is impossible.
 
Yeah but until we have a rapid antibody test to determine the infection opportunity,

we're pretty stuck.

Projections I've seen suggest a sub 10% infection rate regionally. Which is much too low to release sip

It will be the spanish flu all over again (look at what happened when they released SIP too early)

To add, the 61,500 dead is based on an analysis that has us shelter in place till June 1, if we come out of SIP May 1... :dunno what it looks like.
