That's what happened during the Covid pandemic for 2 years. How quickly we forget!

@swirlie I remember how stunned scientists were at how quickly the air started cleaning up with everything shut down

@ViciDraco
I don't recall seeing that stunned response at all because scientists were expecting that to happen anyway, which is why they suggested that everyone go into lock-down mode so that what you describe would actually happen and the spread of Covid would be minimal.
