According to Trump, the ranking system will “incorporate robust surveillance testing, which allows us to monitor the spread of the virus throughout the country.”

“Under these data-driven criteria,” Trump wrote, “we will suggest guidelines categorizing counties as high-risk, medium-risk, or low-risk.”

Great news and idea. I was talking to a friend about this yesterday. The risk in some counties is just not the same as others.

Good. Now Concordia Parish won’t be under the same threat level as Orleans Parish, which is ground zero in the state.

I can get behind this idea.

I tend to agree with him. Let's do a trial run for X amount of days in low risk areas and see what happens. If the numbers turn south then it can be reinforced. It's not like one will be forced to mingle in public if they don't want to.

The man wants to re-open the country. This is a good way to do it.

Exactly. Concoria Parish should be completely open for business. Orleans Parish not so much.

Agreed. Testing is key to this. Hopefully they can rely on contact tracing in light counties.

Remember- you’re always several days, if not weeks behind the data of you’re not doing contact tracing.

Speaking of Sanctuary Cities - I wish Trump would say “so, you fricks refused to help, or even allow, the Fed authorities to enforce Fed law. But, NOW you demand a Fed assistance in this? GFY”. I will go down the list helping all cities that did NOT impede us and then I’ll get around to you if there is anything left.

Strange how more densely populated areas are hotspots for coronavirus? No, it isn't strange at all.
