But that doesn't mean that preparations and plans for states reopening shouldn't be made however slow they might be. It has to be discussed and preparations made at all levels because it won't be like flipping a switch. Your memes are hyperbolic IMO.
Trump said widespread testing would not take place. That would be one safeguard that should take place for any state to remove its shelter in place orders.
I’m thinking along the lines with what I know about how this virus spreads. I think I read that one person in public means four people potentially infected. This virus infects before people are symptomatic, that was the problem in the first place. It spreads like wildfire before anyone knows there is a real issue. Opening a state gradually will not stop this process. It will not calm the nature of this virus. While I understand that people are concerned about the economy, isn’t there another answer other than lifting shelter in place too soon. Why aren’t we requiring our law makers to find creative ways to keep our businesses alive? Why aren’t there incentives to help? Our lawmakers are being narrow minded at a time when we need extreme creativity to keep our economy alive. A $1200 check isn’t sustainable.
We all need to be kept safe. I don’t need your state to open so that it can infect mine.
