To recap, a lot of people think the bay area should have more deaths and more cases, similar to Seattle. The proactive stay-at-home orders are interesting but still seem to be too effective - as if maybe more people are immune already. California has failed at testing for active cases, but there also aren't many deaths in the bay area. Is it completely from the proactive lockdown, or maybe the anecdotes about similar symptoms earlier than expected have merit.

"Safe" meant "maybe we don't need a lockdown as long either" or that "a larger portion of the population than you might think doesn't need to be in lockdown" and that it loses utility to keep them in lockdown. At the very least, it would allow for the Mayors offices in bay area counties, and the Governors offices to take a holistic view at the blanket order - or FUTURE blanket orders when this flares up again throughout the year. But only after antibody tests occurred.
