If social distancing is relaxed, US would see rebound of coronavirus cases, health expert saysDr. Christopher Murray, the director of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, said Sunday on CBS that if the social distancing measures and closures were relaxed May 1, the country would see a rebound of coronavirus cases.
Murray noted states on the West Coast that are father along in the pandemic will still need “weeks of closures” beyond the peak for the opportunity to conduct proper testing and contact tracing. “Of course there’s a big issue of states are on different timings of their epidemics, which we know is the case. How are they going to control importation from other states into their state," Murray added.
