I wish Florida well. Is this reopening driven by science/medical opinion or politics? Staying closed longer endangers no one. Opening too early....
Agreed. This isn't smart science. It's economy based.
You can bet the farm its economy based, as it should be and has to be.
I think someone who has been without an income for 2 months, and potentially could be without one for a lot longer with no clear direction regarding timeframes and constantly changing criteria, may tell you staying closed longer endangers someone. These clowns all use the word "safe", or the terms "keeping people safe" or "we have to keep people safe"......screw safe, life is not safe and no politician can make it so by edict. The great experiment has been conducted and its impossible to continue it forever if you want anything to be able to reopen.
State Parks are easy to reopen, hell just make an announcemet, money is no object. A private business is a slightly different scenario as we don't have a golden goose.
Of course you guys can stay hunkered down as long as you care to do so, no matter what reopens and when.
Given the choice of having an income or the chance of getting what amounts to a bad cold, and for most nothing, I think I'll go with the income.
Bad cold? LOL. Yeah...tell that to all the dead people and those lying in the hospital on ventilators that all they have is a cold. Part of the reason this virus will linger for a long time is the callousness of the uneducated population. Those that do not take this serious. Here is how this plays out if we all think that this is just a bad cold:

Did not say anything about not taking it serious. You evidently have some type of secure income that closing down an entire economy does not affect. Most folks do not. Yes a bad cold. Not even bad in my and my wifes case as we had it in Feb, and that was confirmed by antibody testing. Does it kill folks? Absolutely, but so does starvation, stress, suicides from losing everything you worked for, and lots of other things. Interesting around here deaths due to normal run of the mill causes such as cancer, heart disease, etc, are all down about 50% officially. What does that tell you?
No one is forcing you to do anything. Hide forever.
