To get accurate numbers, EVERYONE would have to be tested and then re tested 2-3 weeks later.
I don't trust this prediction either. Your post is so accurate. We must stay safe.

Yeah, its the CDC, apparently easing restrictions for those infected, to return to work...but thats what I was saying, the CDC does not have a say in how long the restrictions last, its the state governors, and many of them have already extended their restrictions into June, so, something is 'off' somewhere..


If the CDC is recommending easing of restrictions, why are so many states getting tougher?!


Ive not heard ANYONE talk about time lines on opening ANYTHING in the near future, so imo, we still have quite a long time to go.

All the local politicians are still in "if I can save one life mode", they could care less about the economic damage at the moment.

Now the conspiracy theory would say they will keep the lockdown as long as possible in order to increase the chance things continue to get worst economically so by October when early voting starts there is a greater chance to beat the incumbent. The Bill Maher wishful statement.

She's a demonstrated incompetent governor. Desperate actions, late in the game, won't repair her reputation. In fact, this is not a practical solution to anything, because as you point out OP, this is not enforceable.

This describes a large portion of US leadership. Cuomo was late in the game. Kemp was late in the game. Trump was very late in the game. There's a lot of incompetence going around. No one was paying attention.

Don't try to lump Trump into that group of losers. Trump was the one that took heat for putting a travel ban on China back in January. The rest of the political hacks and the media were spouting (paid) Chicom talking points. It's been acknowledged by all but a few total partisan leftist hacks that that decision likely saved thousands of American lives. Meanwhile, Europe allowed travel to flow unrestricted, and paid a heavy price as a result.

Don't forget to include Pelosi and AOC, who were encouraging Americans to visit Chinatown and calling Americans racist for not eating enough Chinese food. I'm sure they are on the Chicom payroll as well.

No way to actually enforce an order like that.

She's been way behind on this and that's why Detroit is such a hot spot. MI had an election Mar 10th...OH postponed our election that was set for Mar 17th.

She is as useless as a screen door on a submarine. In fact, she is worse than useless because she actually interferes and gets in the way of things she has no knowledge or experience with, and the people are left to suffer the consequences of her incompetence.
