More than half of all covid 19 deaths have occurred in just 4 states. There have been zero covid 19 deaths in over half of US counties. Should we all be bound by rules more appropriate for NYC?

You don't have to "open up" and can stay home until you feel safe. If the economy is not started up soon, there will not be anything to open up.

Because we have had no deaths in half the counties does not mean they aren't still vulnerable. I hear and agree that our economy will suffer terribly. Sometimes there are NO solutions to problems. THAT is what is scary.
