I think stay at home orders or lock downs could be re-implemented after infections are shown to happen again, meaning it will look like the tail end of the curve only to be told that the curve is just restarting again.

I think access to fuel for vehicles could become hard to come by and/or regional checkpoints implemented.

We'll be told how the lockdowns have been good for the climate and that our economy is being reshaped for the good of the climate.

"Regional checkpoints" sounds plausible.

Not just plausible. They're now hunting for NY citizens in Rhode Island, New Jersey, etc to send them back. Or planning to. (I forget.)

I tend to think this was a conditioning exercise.

Like children being taught to hide behind their desk and wait for some authority figure to come walk them out of the building during an active shooter drill.

What they've done is laid the groundwork. Make no mistake, the freedoms and rights lost have consequences.

Tragically true.
