The sad truth is that in some places this still happened in 2020. I work with some school districts that spent all spring handing out packets to parents every other week because they don't have reliable internet or a device. These happen to be in poor urban areas but this is true in rural areas as well.
It is the sad truth that some poor rural areas can't cope up with the modern technology just to kill time in facing with the pandemic.
TV sets would be the only pastime that most of the people will have if it happens in the 90s. They get to watch fake news and inaccurate counts of toll just as what we have today.
