Getting through the next couple weeks seems key to me. ...

I do not think it’s possible to close things back down completely again.  Economically, politically or socially.  It could  lead to the economy completely collapsing. Which has enormous impacts oh health etc world wide. As does the mental health aspect (and other secondary health issues - such as delayed diagnosis) 

The critical time is more than the next couple weeks!!   Or, maybe, you meant it is the next 2 weeks, every week.

I didn't think it was possible to do the Shelter-in-place in the first place.  The US political, social, and news machines are built on money.  How could the well-being of the people come first?   Like some have said about banks, the economy was too big to fail, so we have to support it.   

But, the Bay Area led the way as it was one of the first to be hit.  It was possible only because of the unfortunate example of Italy.  It withstood complaints by some because of the unfortunate example of NYC.

Texas and Florida are starting to lead the way on a second round of closures.  But, they were only looking 2 weeks out too, which is a too-weak approach for the life cycle of COVID-19.
