They aren't talking too much about it but the plan is almost certainly to buy time to transition to a new strategy. The keys to this IMO will be squashing new cases, those 15 minute tests(billions of them), a health enforcement agency of some sort to conduct tracing and targeted quarantines, and increasing the capacity of the health system.
The pieces could be in place July-ish.. Unfortunately it's going to take an impressive display of administrative competency at the federal level.
