Totally agree, while difficult to admit and not popular politically, the total shutdown and quarantine approach may be worse than the virus itself. While risky and putting even more pressure on getting a vaccine, returning to schools and opening up businesses carefully seems prudent. Staying the shutdown course has social and health consequences that could be catastrophic.

Those most vulnerable to serious consequences also need much improved help...the old like me and those with medical conditions conducive to difficulties. Tough to say, but it is time to make some move forward.

Frankly, what I don’t think we need is more after the fact bashes and gripers who hate a Governor or the President. Give it a break, Capt Obvious (s), we know your political views... and don’t need more verbiage along those lines.
