And the courts aren't open...and before I get reminded. Yes...I know most of these guys don't take their cases to court.

Your opinion is to just listen to some of the experts.

Depending on the numbers, I could see it being reduced on a rolling basis. People too obsessed with 'muh gub'ment powah grab!' Edwards went overboard because he realized most people are idiots so if you implemented half-measures barely anyone would follow them. We already have evidence that the aggressive measures he implemented are working. Another week or two of positive numbers and it'll be time to consider easing restrictions.
In general, though, too many of you frickers have this insatiable need to grope every single remote member of your family on a daily basis.

No it isn't. I just told you what the experts recommended to the government and that if the government listens, there should be no justification to extend past April 30th.
Whether or not the government listens, I have no idea.
I don't care whether you listen either, as yours and my opinions mean nothing.

You do realize how in conflict these two ideas are.

April 30th seems fairly reasonable. Then we need to start phasing the economy back online.
We'll have COVID tests and antibody tests everywhere by then.

Um, well, I mean...it's the title of the thread. Kind of what the OP was asking.

per the expert recommendation we should be opening back up BEFORE the current stay at home order is over
not sure why some of y'all are getting upset about this
because some experts say this and some experts say that....... just like every field that has experts

I've been trying to find the article but I'm having a hard time
basically it was one of Trumps advisory listing a checklist for the things when we could start easing restrictions
2 weeks of declining numbers was the first thing on the checklist

I've been following this argument and have yet to see the name of Trumps main expert. Who is the "expert"?

There's no conflict. He went overboard to get people to mostly stay at home in the latter half of March/start of April. The numbers are trending in a positive direction. Given the positive numbers, he can now ease up. There's no need to exaggerate when the numbers are trending positive. You can't just say 'Oh man, we got this thing beat,' because every Tom, Dick, and Cletus will go out and cough on each other.
Half-measures aren't sufficient when you're at the prime period of growth in the wake of Mardi Gras.
Half measures are sufficient when you're on the ebb of the regional outbreak and people have now been made acutely aware of distancing, hand washing, etc.

Dr. Anthony Fauci? Is he the expert?

Just a week ago I'd probably agree with you, but unless things start exploding again in the next couple of weeks I doubt it. I am starting to be optimistic of seeing some things reopen in May.

No. It wasn't Fauci. And it was an article posted in the megathread but that thread is 1000 pages so I'm having a hard time finding it
I put the experts in italics because I know some of y'all get so hung up on that.

This is another huge key. Given the aggressive measures, people who display symptoms (well, a reasonable person) will be acutely aware of the virus and take individual precautions to distance themselves and seek testing. They'll know if they need to further isolate in a matter of minutes if those 15 minute tests actually become a thing.
The reality of Covid-19 is now ingrained in the American psyche. People, on average, will start exercise necessary precautions on an individual basis.
