What is the logic of the slow reopening?

Businesses still suffer - doesn't help much there.
Virus still spreads - doesn't help much there.
It would be far better to just go back to 100% open immediately. Business would have a chance at survival and we may be able to avoid mass poverty and starvation. As I think about it, the slow reopening strategy is a really stupid idea.

More or less to monitor for a potential explosion of the virus.

Create enough fear so that people will line up for a vaccine that will increase the likelihood of them getting the virus. At the end of the day, it's all about making money.

The theory is the virus still spreads, but at a much lower rate. A rate that would not put our hospitals over capacity.

My guess is the goal is to avoid big spread events that would put a shite ton of people back in the hospital in 10-14 days. From a social engineering standpoint, I imagine they think that gradual reopening with a bunch of mask rules and distancing guidelines will provide a better chance of seeing the public actually adopt those things. Whereas if it was just "crisis over, everything reopen" they likely feel people would just disregard all of the measures all at once.
I don't know if that's a wise approach, but I think some of those assumptions are fair and provide part of the basis for staggered reopening.

Has anyone even TRIED to quantify this?

I'll give it to you plain and simple.
Nobody has a clue about anything.

The state and local governments and CDC for that matter are just making up guidelines and rules as they go. It’s honestly pretty ridiculous.

Virus spreading is binary to you? Do you understand how rates work?
If we open slowly, the virus spreads more slowly, and we remain under our hospitals’ carrying capacity.

So if the "second wave" Doom and gloom happens, we'll be able to see it coming before it's too late. That's how I understand it from Abbott anyways.

I think we have enough data globally to show that this argument is null and void. Even the most open societies did not overwhelm their hospitals. Quit arguing against the data.

To ensure that any small business that hasn’t already been completely arse raped gets finished off so Walmarks and Amazon will be the only companies left standing.

Yeah, that is the problem. Do you not understand how immunity works?

They should have been opening as hospital capacity was available. The virus is not going away and people will continue to get it. Might as well have people get it when availability is there.

The logic is it’s easier to spend tax dollars and get to that 90% pay out by FEMA

The part where slowing the spread of a virus doesn't help mitigate the spread of the virus.
