To the others: So far it sounds like the consensus is reopen the country and sacrifice lives in a sort of cost/benefit analysis.
This is no time for tricks. Lives are at stake. We need to continue practicing social distancing and not gather in crowds. As we have seen, many of us Villagers still consider this virus something that can’t happen to us and continually break the rules. It is too soon to “open”. Florida’s curve is still weeks away.
