Sumario: Governments are working to strike a fine balance between easing lockdown measures and avoiding a second wave of COVID-19. The target is a "sweet spot" where infection rates are contained and the economy runs again, but at "new normal" capacity. We estimate this to be below 95% in most G20 countries, which means the recovery will remain protracted.
