The projections on that site expect the curve to be squashed pretty flat in Nebraska. The expected death count keeps dropping if you've followed it; it updates periodically.
Today the projection is a high of 3 deaths per day at the peak in early May, max use of 100 hospital beds and 25 ICU beds in Nebraska, which apparently is 10% of available ICU beds.
I expect and hope that restrictions can be lifted but until there's a vaccine, effective treatment or herd immunity it's going to affect society profoundly.
