If we're to trust the Wuhan data, it took 2 weeks for daily new cases to begin dropping. The good news is that once that begin, the decline was ~as steep as the growth. The bad news is that cumulative active cases continued to rise for some time.https://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1240689047418236932 …

If after 2 weeks of lockdown the regional medical system is still functional and new cases are beginning to drop at a rate that appears not to overwhelm surge capacity, you can start to relax restrictions and allow *some* new infections

The critical thing is that the fatality rate appears to be something in the realm of 0.5-1% with treatment available and ~2-6% where healthcare systems have been inundated to a greater or lesser degree. And all-cause mortality will also rise where hospitals are overwhelmed.
