Yeah? Why is that ? You can't swim or burn easily?

When there's a pandemic going on, and a neighboring county relaxes standards yet people treat it like a 3-day weekend and fail to social distance, they create a health hazard.

It's just common sense.

Some types just walk past when they don't want to do something. Others just ban it so nobody gets to do it. Why would you be in the second set ?

I don't really have a tolerance for stupidity when it endangers the health of the general public. At least require masks if they're gonna relax things, but they didn't even do that.

It isn't so difficult to understand.

And yet Sweden is doing just fine, sans lock down... work In fact after initially claiming they were going to condemn the Swedes to mass death, the near useless WHO now says Sweden's become a model example. Finally the w.h.o. might have gotten something right. eyes

Meanwhile certain US "State" leaders are loving their newfound power to inflict their every whim upon the masses. Counting on the fact that a large percentage of their supporters are mindless sheep. That they will obey whether it makes sense or not. Heck in one of the biggest screw ups in the nation, NY actually ordered that old people with Covid should be returned to the rest homes they came from, & apparently no one(other than rest homes) questioned it... so they were returned to continue wiping out the rest of the home. frown
"(March) New York State Health Department mandated, “no resident shall be denied readmission or admission to the [nursing home] solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19.” The directive also prohibited nursing homes from “requiring a hospitalized resident who is determined medically stable to be tested for COVID-19 prior to admission or readmission.”" flame

Hopefully they let people back to work, before the small businesses that employed 1/2 the nation throw in the towel. Because the US will be gone if they decide to wait for a vaccine... The H1N1 vaccine only has a 37% effective rate and they've been working on that one for over a decade. It seems like the only ones winning are the big techs that benefit from everyone working from home, & China, that is buying up more US Oil fields in Texas cheap, now that some are all but bankrupt. Hows that for rubbing salt in the virus wound they let spread unabated. mad
