They should start at the bottom and work up, in my opinion.
They should start with the smallest employers, from 1 to 20 employees. This small number could be instantly tested. They could have strict rules for working and associating with the public. This seems like a logical point to begin, in my opinion.
Larger employers could draw up plans on how they could bring their employees back, with the required testing and distancing.
In the interim, all these employees would be eligible to receive their unemployment insurance. Until there was a safe plan for them to return, they should follow present procedures.
Almost everyone believes that people have to return to work at some time. What must be prevented is a second wave, which can prove much more deadly than the first.
Just my opinion.

But, the extenuating circumstances were that the troops were returning from the war and there were many huge victory parades for them. This was believed by many to have created the "second wave".
History seems to have taught us a lesson, if we pay heed?

The same advice from January of Test, Test, Test is even more vital now, but i don't see any serious attention being paid to that.
