The
PravdaMedia is abuzz with explosive negativity over Trump’s desire to get
America Open For Business by Easter.

How could
this even be a pipe dream considering many locations, like NY, are not yet

Perhaps
there are those who are looking at the current ‘regular flu epidemic’ data, for
which we did Not shut-down the country, and are comparing that to the
CoronaVirus data where current sickness and deaths are a fraction of the ‘regular flu’
impacts, albeit that hospitalizations may become a significant mitigating factor.
-
When the
shut-downs were ordered, it was “assumed”, based on foreign data, that the
death rate was 5+ percent of infections – clearly a major exposure. Current data indicates it may be less than
1.0 percent of infections with those most at risk Not in the workforce (like
myself).
-
A prolonged
shut-down clearly could lead to another 1930s Depression with all the massive
issues that would involve.
Starting
the economic engines of the US
could be done by state or even areas within states.
-
Significant
decisions lie ahead with risk to both the deciders and the public.
We all face
risk every day in everything we do.
We will
soon have to face the risk-reward decisions associated with “America Start Your
Engines”.

God give
the Wisdom of Solomon and the Luck of the Irish to those who will make these
decisions!
