regular routines. There may be some differences. Masks may become more regular (especially for older people). Some customs may change (fewer handshakes). But I largely expect people to return to normal. I would not be surprised at all though if after stay at home orders are ended, movie theaters, restaurants, etc. limit capacities to half of actual or something like that. I think the damage to the music/concert industry and sports is going to take longer to adapt. Those are much, much larger and tighter packed crowds.
