I think I will concentrate my focus on what is happening in The Villages. Sumter county, STILL only 17 deaths by the virus. And increase in those that are infected, but I find a bit of comfort knowing that the death rate in my area has not risen much recently.
You have tunnel vision.....thinking only about your own home town. I'm concerned about stimulating our economy as a country. The message our administration sent all Americans is not the message we need to get this economy up and running again. As it is now, we are going backwards with the opening up. Why?.......... Because we, the a population of this great country of ours, have not gotten a grasp on mitigating this virus.

The message they sent at that rally was it is OK not to social distance and it is OK not to wear a mask. REALLY? I would think our current administration would want to make our economy healthier, not weaken it. Oh, and saving a few lives might be nice too!
