I for one appreciate living in a State where there is no government nanny telling me what I can or can't do. Open up the States and using their common sense and personal risk tolerance, let the people decide what risk they want to take.

The measures needed to slow the spread of the virus have nothing to do with an individual's personal risk. The risk is not only to the individual but to everyone around the individual. Society is at risk when one person decides not to follow CDC guidelines. The economy is at risk when an individual refuses to abide by guidelines. Those folks must realize it is not all about them and their individual rights. It is about what is best for the community on a local level and the country on a broader scale.
Take a look at what is happening in large cities in our country. Is it sinking in yet? Hospital beds are being set up in remote locations to extend bed capacity. This is no joke. That is happening in our United States. There is a big picture to all of this......not you individual risk is at stake here.
