Outstanding article on how Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine has expertly and decisively handled the pandemic. Though some politicians from his own party have disagreed with him, his popularity has soared among the people he serves.https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/28/us/politics/mike-dewine-ohio-coronavirus.html?campaign_id=56&emc=edit_cn_20200428&instance_id=17999&nl=on-politics-with-lisa-lerer®i_id=108420427&segment_id=26119&te=1&user_id=d36dcf821462fdd16ec3636710a855fa
This is well reasoned in my view. I'm semi-retired, but some jobs you need the day to day hands on interaction, mentorship. The amount of knowledge picked up with face to face interactions is immeasurable. Even casual settings such as walking to and from meetings with a colleague can elicit information that ends up critical.

I'll stick with my opinion on Gold. He'll be in foul trouble within the first eight minutes.
Mike Pence was here today to visit the Mayo Clinic. I appreciate his appearance, but feel it was awfully arrogant of him to decline Mayo's request that he wear a mask.https://www.startribune.com/vice-president-mike-pence-to-highlight-mayo-research-in-rochester-today/570006292/FWIW, that's Mayo's CEO on the far left...wearing a mask.
Pretty interesting exercise to go back and read the posts at the beginning of this thread. We got a few things right and a lot, lot wrong.

Indeed, and that is the potential problem I see. For me personally, I get a ton of value by being able to collaborate, often informally, with my colleagues. That just isn't possible when no one is in the office, and it is far more difficult via IM or WebEx/Zoom. And more broadly, I don't see how the folks with 0-3 years of experience are supposed to learn and be mentored remotely. But, I'll allow that maybe I am just old and set in my ways and that it will all work out fine, but it was a decision driven by $ rather than long-term planning.
Social distancing has helped “flatten the curve” of the coronavirus, but University of Washington public health researchers say the death toll from this wave of the pandemic is forecast to hit about 74,000 in the United States.https://www.miamiherald.com/news/coronavirus/article242338406.html?The researchers with the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, whose coronavirus model is cited often by the White House and states, increased the prediction for U.S. deaths from about 67,600 in their newest forecast.The model runs through Aug. 4, but the projected total of 74,073 deaths is reached on July 15. The current model projects no additional deaths between July 15 and Aug. 4.Institute director Christopher Murray said that if states start opening too soon, the death toll from COVID-19 could be even higher, CBS News reports.“While most states seem to have passed their epidemic peaks, seven — Hawaii, Mississippi, Texas, Wyoming, Utah, Nebraska, and North Dakota — may be experiencing their peaks now or could be in the coming weeks,” the Institute said.
If Vegas reopens, I’m taking the over on those numbers.
Yep. Wonder if the casinos will take bets on that...
Pence was informed of the mandatory mask policy at Mayo before the tour and refused to wear one. Easy to figure out why.
The Vice Hypocrite is getting ripped a new one everywhere -- even on Fox News. He claimed he wanted to look at health-care workers "in the eye." Well, if you're not an imbecile, you've put your mask on in a way that you can see. Just ask every surgeon in the world how they somehow are able to see as they fix people's brains, hearts and everything else while wearing masks. Not following hospital policy when you are supposed to be setting an example for the entire country is disturbing, selfish and just plain inconsiderate.
