Its good news alright.
Question now is - what can be relaxed without causing that to shoot up?
I'm not sure how we monitor it closely enough to avoid being 2 weeks behind the curve if we relax the wrong thing.
Best I can think of is concentrating whatever spare testing resource there is on (representative) sample communities around the country. Test (regardless of symptoms) extensively in those communities every 2 days or something like that so if it does start to creep up, you can more quickly react rather than when people first start arriving into hospital - by which point it could be far too late.
