Ever heard of the Great Depression? There was mass suicides because it was so bad. If we remain closed, some businesses will not reopen. And if the gov does not have revenues, it can't pay all those that benefit from monthly paydays. If you don't like it, you can continue to self-quarantine. No one is going to force you to leave your home. Don't over think it.

He’s not politician. All your Monday morning career politician quarterbacks are. Who always seem to have the right answer afterwords which they made no decision before hand.


We could still be shut down to fall and second wave could STILL happen and third. There could be no solution to vaccine for years. Nice to to be Monday morning quarterbacking.

Testing Vaccine
 

I read, today, reports of vaccine testing in the state of Washington on humans. It will take 45 plus days to determine if the vacine is working.

169 out of billion, yep, that new wave. Nobody knows how many in China are sick or died.

You don’t get flu due to you’re due diligence and habits keeping you safe distance.

Guess, opinion, fear mongering

So, more people From all over the world travel here spreading virus.

More people may recover from the virus but not the ones who are old and or having pre- existing conditions so those who want things back to normal, are you willing to put money ahead of peoples lives?

Crammed in like sardines, people from all over the world travel to aNd through spreading virus. By time they know they had problem it was already out of control.

If we open the pools, we'll run into the same problems we had before. Too many people staying too close together. There is not enough staff to monitor the pools,clean the equipment, and check IDs.

So, what do you think going to happen when nobody has any money, no hospitals, no federal government, no food?

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.

First, this is a "Flu". (Not the Plague). People dying every minute of something. They just aren't posting the score on every media outlet.

I understand if you are 85 or have COPD that you are afraid. But regular flu can kill you also. Falling in Shower will kill you.

I heard a perfectly logical solution to this.

Everyone that is not afraid can resume normal life. Everyone that is "afraid" can stay home as long as they want. They can avoid everyone that has resumed normal life.

Let's not punish hard working families in their 30's, 40's, etc. that have a 99.99% chance of surviving the flu. Healthy people that get Corona Virus are not going to the hospital. They go home to bed for a few days. So overwhelming health care is not going to happen IF those at risk stay home until vaccines, etc.

And the longer the economy remains stagnant the more bad news for those out of work. Currently the projected number of people out of work will reach 27 million by June. Think about that. And here in the Villages there are many residents who think once restrictions are eased all will be well. Be rest assured that will not be the case and many business and especially restaurants will remain either closed or go out of business. Those that open will require less employees so the unemployment situation will continue on a large scale which will have more dire consequences socially and economically then the virus itself

Interestingly, Sweden and Brazil kept their economies open during the COVD-19 pandemic and their numbers are dropping faster than ours. See Gateway Pundit, April 12, 2020. This would confirm epidemiologist, Knut Wittkowski's statement about herd immunity. The path we are following may lead to a new outbreak next fall. Check out the below video.
