Oh come on teejers...there are various enforceable restrictions on gathering size, indoor occupancy %s, etc etc that could be relaxed if community transmission were much reduced and if testing/contact tracing were highly capable of quick detection and early warning.
I'm not sure if meaningful college football stadium occupancy would be advisable even with masks + every-other-seat distancing + low community prevalence/transmission, but it would at least be in the conversation. Restaurants/live music venues would certainly see a better lifeline. I think public K-12 schools could be back to in-person with masks and more prevalent outdoor options/rotations.
Although new case counts are rebounding in various spots outside the US, we've seen life in countries with sober public health responses return to a semblence of normalcy not currently seen in the US. It just takes a team effort.
