If it takes another six months then I suggest that you vote for Biden due to Trump's inability to manage the epidemic better because it should not take another six months.

I don't know what you want me to say. I think I have explained this very clearly. I do not think we can safely reopen the economy now. I think the loudest voices to reopen are not the ones who will be taking the risks and that they are putting their financial interests ahead of the health of others. I am arguing that the health risks of reopening be decreased to the point that those calling for reopening are comfortable accepting that risk for themselves and their families. I don't think that is an unreasonable position or one that is hard to understand.

Jeff, you have an unreasonable expectation of when we can reopen.  According to you you want near universal testing before opening Germany South Korea Sweden aren't doing this.  Not only that the testing would have to occur multiple times a week according to you.

I'm done trying to talk sense into you for the last time social distancing with masks is the way to go.  Otherwise like I said, your scenario might happen in 2021.  Keeping everyone home for the next 6 months is ridiculous.[/quote]

All you need to say is, "I am prepared to risk my health and the health of my family members by exposing ourselves in current conditions". But, you don't appear to be willing to say that. Rather, you seem to be prepared to protect yourself, your family, and your finances while others take the risk.

Everyone does this when they go to the grocery store already.  I went to the grocery store on Friday.  I wear a mask and social distance.  No problem.  This fear is completely ridiculous and unnecessary.

[b]What are your working conditions? If we reopen the economy are you going to be exposed to people or will you continue teleworking and social distancing while others take the risk? There is a big difference between a quick trip to the grocery store and all day, every day, exposure to the public.[/b]

Jeff, I'm not sure why you keep saying this.  Isn't it obvious that many of us disagree with your assessment of how dangerous this virus is? [/quote]
