Is it still a good time to think about in-person social apps during Covid?

With all the things happening in the world right now, such as 4 billion people in lockdown, is it still a good time to think about or work on in-person social apps?

People are saying this is gonna be a "new normal" until at least the end of the year. Will people still go out after this is all over?

There will be a lot of people who already had coronavirus, for whom the risks may be significantly lower. Of course, that depends entirely on whether immunity accompanies their return to negative status. If so, I can easily imagine them rapidly returning to irl socializing.
