Then we do what they do. Consistent shame for anyone not following the new norm.

You'll never get 100% anything. Heck, I finally encouraged one guy at work, who is a daily cougher to consider wearing a mask, so he doesn't cough on everything, since his son is an EMT.

I didn't even directly tell him to do it, I just mentioned that's how the country could stop the spread. He did it today. Wow.

And fwiw, the shame thing doesn't really work on a lot of people these days. It's certainly not going to be close to 100%, and the problem is I don't think it's going to be enough to blunt the spread of the disease enough to keep from getting hospitals who at at capacity and making choices about who lives and who dies, which is getting more likely if we try the open for business route.
