  1. We have no choice but safe open and move on. If it not happened in May I even can not imagine what kind of hell we may have.

    Any re-emergence of this virus and the quarantine will immediately resurface and back home everyone goes, so yes there has to be an extremely cautious way of creating a very safe opening so that everyone is safe from any future flare up.

  5. I don't think people understandthe impact of the virus. It has little to do with what government does. I typically fly around 250,000 miles a year. Whether the administration "opens" the economy or not, atmost I can see myself doing one international and maybe 2-3 domestic trips for the rest of the year. It is not just because of my reluctance to fly in to make a business meeting, it is also that I do not want to be in a situation where I end up risking an immuno compromised counter party.

    Am also seeing a lot of sous vide in future than a steakhouse.

    Once reliable antibody tests and vaccines are widely available, things can get back to normal.

    Maybe "chicken littles" like me are a minority. We will see.

  6. Georgia state is going to be open for business. A big decision, Texas and Utah will follow. It up to state government to move on. God luck.

  9. Georgian governor: we will all open...
    Trump : to soooon...
    I would say: sure open, slowly but surely. Am I mistaken?
    I like PA approach.

  10. Gov. Cuomo sad 13% of NY state residents got infected. It’s about 2.7m people and according to that it’s only .5% deaths. Based on analysis. I would buy it, but they were saying a lot and it was back and force. Good but need time to prove it. Still a big question.
