Not counting chickens, just making observations. I don't think that NY's "success" is from doing a more responsible job with the virus than other states. Frankly, they got their ass kicked and are probably experiencing the effects of the beginning of herd immunity. If Florida, Tex, and AZ can lockdown their most vulnerable citizens they may benefit in the long run from a spike in cases providing immunity to more of their population.
As for going back to square one, shouldn't that require a significant rise in mortality? Mortality up to now has not happened to a random group of people, the vulnerable are well defined. I would hope that NY has by now figured out how best to protect the vulnerable group.
