I will be careful and doing social distancing until there is a vaccine available or it is obvious the threat of infection is low. Anyways it is up to the Governors to decide when they open up their states - many are saying it will be at least until June.
If that’s what people have comprehended from the White House updates, I can understand why they have to repeat over and over what is planned. There are excellent, brilliant citizens being tasked with the reopening our country slowly and as safety as possible. While the less than enlightened people stand on the sidelines clucking, the brains of this country know what this country needs to carefully get back to business. Your leaders know much more than the average citizen about the juggling act required to keep US citizens safe and at the same time keeping an eye on the food, medical and basic nessessities supply chain and economy without creating panic. Don’t think there won’t be a food shortage if this country can’t get up and running soon? Our leaders don’t have the luxury of keeping their eyes on just one ball.
