That's never going to happen so this disease will continue to run through the US population until we acquire herd immunity. A vaccine would help speed this along but at least half the population won't take it. We're going to have to wait it out. I'm guessing 3 to 4 years before we're down to an acceptable rate of infection.
Better hope a vaccine comes out, cause waiting for "naturally" occurring herd immunity could mean close to 14 million in the US would die in the process.

How the F@CK are you supposed to do contact tracing when it takes longer for the test to come back, than the gestation period of the disease?

That's just unacceptable. Holy crap.
