Corona virus once there is treatment or a vaccine for it. If not, then countries have to put strict regulations forward in order to ensure that the precautionary measures set by WHO be adhered to. With this, the daily recorded cases will subside. Companies and travel can then resume to boost the economy.
Yes, The quickest way I can think of right now would be to just get as many precautions as you can and just let people do whatever you want. Will this cause a lot of people to die? Sure it will, and most of them will be upsetting because it will be people who have no other choice but to go outside. I heard some noble prize winner cum economic analyst said that if the total world stops working for 14 days that will script the end of covid19 more easily.
However when you allow people to get sick or die, you are also dropping the amount of people who could get it as well. That is literally what governments are trying to achieve unfortunately, one more dead means one less covid case, that is how they see it
