I don't think isolating kids and crippling their development will make them prone to socializing more over the long term. Especially not boys, who are less "people-inclined". Maby young women will want to overcompensate in the social department. Guys less so, but may overcompensate in the non-constructive risk-taking department.

They won't start buisnesses en-masse, leftists ruined that allmpver the West with lockdowns.

My assumption is that it will worsen the trend to use technology as a filter between them and other people.

WoW is often joked as parent's dream "chastity and drug abstinence" program.

Well with the irrational WuFlu fear regarding kids ( less risk than influenza for under 30's ) governments and parents shoved their kids in front of screens for several extra hours every day. That's gonna leave a mark.

I jokes about keeping schools open and simply making a 2 weeks WuFlu pijamma party at school when the virus roams, to get it over with, without exposing adults.
