Kolek planning to go pro
More than 100 protesters rallied in downtown Raleigh to reopen North Carolina on Tuesday, describing Gov. Roy Cooper’s stay-home order as an unconstitutional overreach that will kill the state’s small businesses.https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/politics-government/article241999131.html?
In Michigan, the plan is to stay in their cars and drive around downtown Lansing honking their horns.
The original goal was to close until end of April, while we got the infrastructure and resources in place to be able to do widespread testing and contact tracing. We've been chasing that latter aspect forever, largely because of top down failures. We are still failing that test. The 45 days more, should allow us to get there, unless we continue to have gross incompetence and malfeasance. If we have all that in place, I believe #1 precludes #2. In all honesty, much of the nation could have safely reopened now if we didn't have horrendous failures in establishing a robust testing and contact tracing platform. If we open, possibly even before May 1, which was announced as a goal in the press conference yesterday, then #2 almost assuredly happens.I believe 2 is worse than 1.
Yep. Too close to be just a coincidence....

lol, serious man is serious.
New York City’s death toll soars past 10,000 in a revised virus count.https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/14/us/coronavirus-updates.html?action=click&module=Spotlight&pgtype=Homepage#link-7edf39e3IMHO - with the lack of testing, we may still be undercounting the COVID deaths. Given the initial failures, we will never know for sure.
If Putin is publically stating those problems, you gotta know they are much, much worse in actuality.
Could just be cover for those uncontrollable fires dangerously close to the Chernobyl waste storage.

Agree completely. And it depends on CDC being allowed to do its thing.If CDC has been allowed to do its thing - taking the lead on both testing and contact tracing - from the start, we might already be reopened. Maybe we wouldn’t even had to have closed. This despite the initial failure of one CDC test.If CDC is pushed into overdrive NOW, we could very well reopen in a few weeks without having to worry about closing back down. Like you said #1 could preclude #2.But if CDC is left on the back burner as merely a backstop to state and local public health officials, we might be opening and closing over and over until we have a vaccine.
Sadly, in today's press conference, we learned that will not be the case. We were told that testing is the State's responsibility, and any failures in testing are the fault of the governors and local entities.
