Why aren't we opening? We have been trending down on new cases for 20 days now.

And we are perfectly able to treat all of our patients without crisis care.

Why has the state not opened up for phase 1?

quote:

Before phase one
What states or regions must do before proceeding to a phased opening of their economies:


Among the boxes that must be checked are a decline of documented COVID-19 cases within a 14-day period and a robust testing program in place for at-risk healthcare workers. Other criteria include a decline of influenza-like illnesses reported within a 14-day period and hospitals having enough protective gear for their workers and enough beds, ventilators and other needed supplies to treat all patients.

Because the people that lead this state need another state to take the lead.

Every step they made closing was based on somewhere else. They do not have a real plan. They will not be the first to do anything.

What exactly is a "Phase 1 requirement" and whom exactly requires it?

Politics.

It is why Colorado isn't receiving the same amount of criticism as GA, SC, and TN with the reopening plans.

We will be phase 1 when JBE stops yelling at us at press conferences and says we are phase 1.

Every single hotel and fishing camp on Toledo can only let essential workers stay, they are all empty, why would a nurse stay at Cypress Bend or the Zwolle inn?

The Federal government put the guidelines to opening the economy back up. The governors are supposed to be following these guidelines, but some seem to push them to the side.

Easy:

Because the state is getting Federal dollars to prop it up and without this no way JBE would be able to go to legislative session with a budget that possibly could balance the budget. His failed policies of governing were about to come to roost this session but NOW, he is getting a pass.

So if that is the case, and I honestly don't believe that to be true, it is on the State for not being prepared after over a month of a shutdown. But JBE will continue to belittle the community about not complying.

LOL - Edwards is no liberal.
To some the definition of a liberal is anyone who isn't a far-right socialist.

We actually are in the process, and appear to be on track for the expiration of many restrictions on May 1, which has been the schedule for a couple weeks. Nobody likes this situation but so far it has been logical.

Agreed.

However, we should be in Phase 1 by Monday at the latest.
