Wear a mask, wash your hands, vote straight republican, and hold China accountable. That’s how you keep people safe.
Now open the damn country up.

Damn straight!

Wow. Now there's a campaign slogan.

This is the part that makes me so angry. Lots of the idiots protesting don't want to go back to work themselves. They want ME to have to go back to work and risk MY life and the life of my kids and my parents so that they (protesters) can get a haircut or a beer.

much easier and safer to stay home on the dole.

Opening up is fine, but these losers who are packing into bars and having big parties and refusing to wear masks indoors are going to end up ruining it for everyone. No sense of moderation or self-control. It's like they think it's cool to be an inconsiderate jackass.

Move on and figure a way not to wreck the economy for the next 3+ generations.

Everything you list is voluntary, avoidable or has a treatment. COVID-19 is none of those things.

As you were saying?

I honestly think that maybe we have to completely reopen and then close again. Then we might get enough PPE and tests for the next opening. Sad, but might have to happen to convince people. The only way to get rid of this thing is to go to the "box it in" phase where we do tracing and isolating. Some places are ready with the tests and tracers all set up. Most are not. The virus might well be "everywhere", but we have to stomp it out and the only way to do that is to start testing and tracing if we fully open. We might get through the summer okay with everyone outdoors, but it will come back in the fall. Now is the time to have a lot of tests and trace.

It's simply not true the virus is "everywhere" as an earlier poster claimed. Were it "everywhere" there would be many more sick and dying of covid19.

It would not have spread so far and wide in the US had our Dear Leader not denied the disaster and refused to listen to scientists who clearly predicted the extent and potential damage of the pandemic.

Most Americans are not immune to this virus. There are millions of Americans it can and will kill if its spread is not controlled.

If people on Kentucky and Florida want to "open up" not social distance, not wear masks, not wash their hands, they can only do so in total isolation from the rest of the uninfected Americans who do mot wish to contract this disease.

Of course, that's not what the open up crowd want. They want me and my family to put ourselves at risk too, and that is not a risk I am willing to take.

Invalid, particularly at the governor level, to lock down a state.

Now, it seems, many governors have moved the goal posts. The curve has been flattened in most places around the country. The hospitals were not overwhelmed, we had an overabundance of ventilators, testing is up across the nation, and the spread has slowed. Yet, places with few or no cases are still being locked down in an unreasonable fashion.

We cannot wait for a vaccine or cure to open up. It is not feasible to the well being of most Americans.

We have learned how to protect ourselves. We have learned to wash our hands, maintain appropriate distance, and wear masks. But, crazy restrictions are still in place. Closing beaches is crazy. Evidence has shown that this virus does not spread easily outdoors and in heat.

And, as for masks.....

If they don't work, why are people being forced to wear them?
If they do work, why aren't more places opening up with limited restrictions?
