How to prevent “backslide” after partial recovery?

Preventing recovery backslide:

Maintain discipline:

Do not rush to full volume

Keep monitoring even as things improve

Stay conservative longer than necessary

Avoid temptations:

Resist pressure to send to everyone

Do not add risky segments prematurely

Do not increase frequency too fast

Watch for warning signs:

Small metric dips that could worsen

Engagement trends flattening

Complaint upticks

Build in buffers:

Stay below pre-crisis volume even after recovery

Keep highest-risk segments excluded permanently

Maintain conservative practices as new normal

Partial recovery can reverse quickly if discipline slips.

Do not declare victory too soon. Maintain caution until fully clear.
