    No no. I said a different approach and yes early on the news/government focused on Spain, Italy and NYC numbers pretty much exclusively. Maybe with a not so drastic approach across the board the numbers would be the same and not worse. That’s all I’m saying, but then again the experts know much more than me.

  2. In my opinion what WA, CA and NY did was the right balance of public health and economic considerations.

    What TX, FL, GA did is too aggressive

    Sweden made a mistake.

  3. I accept your opinion, however you dude always to pessimistic. I can tell you time will show. But promise if you are mistaken you will adjust your opinion. I will if I’m mistaken.

  4. Well so I’m saying we shouldn’t close the whole country. Besides CA, NY, NJ, IL this is it!

    Yes, unfortunately this is a bitter truth. But, we hope for an early improvement in the situation.

  6. All US states are somehow partly opened. However some states just on the begging.
    I was watched during the whole 5 weeks and came to conclusion the states which will continue stay mostly closed will have more severe consequences for long run and it will be very hard to recover. Local governments who still did not get to this point will bring their people to suffer consequences.

  7. Donald Trump has expressed a desire to
    restart the economy as early as May. But
    in my opinion he should wait and decision
    should be taken after consulting with public
    health officials as the best public
    health policy isthe best economic
    policy.

  8. To let you know US economy is already partly opened in all states and going to open more.
    So far no spikes in covid19 cases. We are looking for recovery.
