The OP said there was no plan. There is Trump’s plan, right?
I’m not arguing for or against. I’m just pointing out the Trump plan.
There's no plan to the extent that the guidelines (which is what they're titled, btw) are vague and leave it to the states to decide which epidemiologic models they want to use, which testing regimes to implement, workplace safety rules, etc.

Anything that doesn't revolve around getting US life, sociological and economical, back to 100% normal and thus moving more and more toward herd immunity of this virus is just crazy.
They need to save all this shutdown stuff for something that is really deadly like H5N1 (60% mortality in humans that get it)....if H5N1 can ever really get a stronghold on human to human transmission we will be fricked. My fear is the next time a pandemic happens people are going to remember how the government cooked the books on this one and are going to ignore the next one from the outset and it could be incredibly worse form a mortality standpoint.

i think a lot of this is how long it lays dormant while you are infected. the super deadly viruses don't really spread b/c they kill hosts too quickly, which severely limits spread. COVID-19 is so deadly b/c it's incubation period is very long and, often, very silent
Nipah, ebola, etc show signs quickly and kill you quickly
