Not optimistic, although the financial pressure will begin to outweigh the fear of Covid at some point. However, as Thorsten said, they are still saying two-week quarantine - not at home - for anyone returning. And they are still saying entry solely through Beef Island, where they believe they have better ability to screen people.
I feel bad for homeowners who left in February, expecting to come back in April or May to prepare for hurricane season. I am also seeing a lot of houses available for longer-term rent. That suggests either higher-income expats are leaving, or homeowners expect short-term rentals will be dead for the foreseeable future.
