How do we deal with Corona from April 2020 onwards

The Issue

Today is April 14th, few months in to Corona Pandemic. World is still divided. Some wants to continue the lock down for indefinite period or until some Vaccine or Drug is found to 100% conquer the 'Corona.

Some others are asking  questions. 

Is lockdown the only solution?

Here is the data from https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries on 4/14/2020 at 4.43 PM EST for United States

1) 78 deaths for 1 million population. 

2) 609,614 total cases

3) 38,479 total recoveries

4) 25,794 total deaths

Not everything is locked down. In addition to health care workers, essential services workers are always working, they never stopped working.

To know who are all comes under the essential workers. (https://www.newsweek.com/list-essential-workers-that-we-should-thank-support-during-coronavirus-pandemic-1495750

What is the situation of such workers. Let us take the example of grocery stores workers. They are exposed to many people who are not personally known or not co-workers. What kind of PPE they are using to work with unknown and may not see again people?

Many other workers, who are exposed to the limited set of co-workers and working at predefined place, have less risk then the essential workers.

Is that impossible for them to work with the similar PPE used by essential workers?

At this time USA has lot of data, to be precise 609,614 people who are 'positive'. Can scientist and research organizations find a pattern to identify the high risk individuals? Can the government take care of such high risk people like infants and protect them until the vaccine or medicine is found?

Also it appears plasma donors can save critically ill patients. Can Hospitals and laboratories work together and requests those who recovered for plasma to save few lives?

What we are requesting is just get out  of the mindset of lockdown for ever, find ways to bring back life to normal. It will never be like before Corona, but  we will adapt to the new way of life like having the mask when outside, not touching hands, covering eyes with glasses, greeting by other means then shake hand. 

Let us all ask Government, Scientists to expedite the way to bring back the life to normal. This is a new problem, we need new solutions. Waiting to invent a drug or vaccine in a standard structured way takes years. We can not hide for that long.
