Yeah? When will it be over? What’s the criteria? When do we end the quarantine?

Because the peak is longer and goes further out. This can be just as catastrophic. The government would have to completely change its approach to let people go back to work.
I'm saying this makes the time period the virus would exert catastrophic consequences end faster or not occur at all.

Dr. Scott Gottlieb was the lead author of a big paper that came out on Sunday about that. Gottlieb, you may know, was FDA Director from 2017 to last year, and he's in tight with Fauci, Birx, and the rest of the medical people in the Trump Administration, so this paper will carry a lot of weight.
He said that we can reopen restaurants when we have:
* 14 days of declining new cases
* The ability to test anyone with a fever or other possible symptoms and get results in less than 30 minutes
* Can quickly effectively trace and test those associated with any new positive case.
* Established that people need to wear masks around town
* Are running regular serological tests to screen the population to understand the spread of the virus and see new infection hotspots before they get bad

Creating a situation where the cure is absolutely worse than the disease. If and when we come out of this shite, and the economy fails to rebound as everyone hopes, I hope you're all happy that we eliminated the spread. People are unemployed and killing themselves because they see no hope, but shite we sure did flatten the curve.
I’m not saying I agree or disagree with the decision. Just explaining to the guy who didn’t understand why grocery stores are still open

Just the first shot across the bow. All hell is about to break loose. Government didnt think This through very well. Lots of small business will soon follow suite.

People will argue that grocery stores are essential so the spread there is perfectly acceptable.
Which is fricking bonkers.

I will argue with you. And it isn't me that is fricking bonkers. The goal isn't to stop the spread. It is to slow it to a manageable level. Grocery store spread is going to happen and we can't do much to stop it without causing real panic. However, letting this shite spread more b/c someone needs to buy a cheap picture frame is fricking bonkers.

Which is absurd because Hobby Lobby is the posterchild for non-essential business.

People gotta make a living.
If the govt wanted cooperation they should have paid businesses off earlier. People are getting pissed.
I work for the DoL and people are pissed and the anger is growing daily, while trust in govt is waning.

I don't doubt any of that. It doesn't mean its the correct course of action.

You think the shutdown was the right course? What gives you that idea?

When people are losing their livelihood?
You're more likely to catch this virus in a big box "essential business" than in a small shop.
The weed shops (which have been deemed essential) are limiting to one person at a time without government coersion.

In certain states, absolutely.

Not wanting to implode the healthcare system and do long term damage to economic infrastructure.
