Reopen the economy - folks aren't necessarily going to come back at least not 100% of the before times numbers. Maybe 70-80%, and you ain't gonna see mass sporting events for some time, or if they come back, stadiums will be at 25% capacity or something like that. There won't be even up to 90% until we see case and death numbers going down WITH things re-opened AND an effective treatment for folks who If we start seeing outbreaks in small and medium sized cities that will spook people real fast, and it'll get down to 30-40% of the going out and about, if that. If we start seeing death tolls in the six figures that's going to have an effect too - cause dead people can't spend and are a drag on the economy. But in your world it's like the Rapture, we just take a couple hundred thousand people and everything else doesn't skip a beat. |
Why not go to the CDC? https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvss/vsrg/vsrg03-508.pdf |
again all I think most logical people are saying is keep social distancing and where masks but let people actually go about their lives more including working to get the economy going again with those two things in place. I didn't even realize but at least in Virginia it looks like a majority of the outbreaks are at nursing homes so I kind of have to agree, this is what we are shutting down the whole entire state/economy for?!?!?! |
But think of all the entitlement payments that won’t be made! Republican wet dream. Since really only a problem for old, diseased, fat people. |
So what does your "re-opened economy" look like if you still do social distancing and mask wearing? Social distancing would imply even if you re-open cinemas and bars, they'd be at like 20-30% capacity. Or stores keeping their limits on capacity - so the lines getting into Wegmans, Costco, etc., would stay in place. |
That doesn't say or even imply that heart disease deaths have dropped to "almost nothing." |
I'm one of the lucky ones whose company requires our specific team to have a home office (20 years now). I will be watching closely the areas that demand to be free including no mask just how high infections and deaths tip the scale. |
![]() The world would be better off if every one of these assholes gets sick and dies. Anyone disagree? |
Any guesses on why the numbers are so low in the chart above? If you don't, please go lick some doorknobs. |
Then for peteś sake, will they hurry up and die so the stupidity will die with them and the rest of the more educated gene pool can get on with our lives??? |
Cue, it's cue. If you're gonna throw shade, then make sure you can spell it. |
Yes, keeping people safe is hateful. |
And? |
Even though public sentiment is 2:1 about remaining at home rather than going back to work precipitously? |
