Expect the worst hope for the best, plan for the worst,

seems to be an appropriate maxim
I was refering to lockdown rather than the virus.

I almost agree with you. I do think we need to learn to live with it, but the way we used to live shouldn't be history, just like it wasn't learning to live with flu.
