Now that states who opened back up earlier than most  (Arizona, Texas, Florida) are seeing major spikes in cases, will they shut back down?

Jason Finley

The ruling class will try to convince us, but we need to resist. The economy is not just for the here and now. It’s for the ever after.

I think we all say America will not quarantine again, we did it for 90 days, but statistically speaking, as we have all gone out to stores, restaurants, beaches, etc, the numbers say Covid isn’t going anywhere. \n\nSo while we say we won’t quarantine or shut down again, I believe we will, the government will keep printing money and giving it to people, and we will be left with no choice, but to shit down again, to ultimately defeat the virus. What do you think? Crazy? Will you do it or continue to roll the dice? Comment to me!!!

We're not going backwards. Lockdown was not orchestrated properly. We should have locked down the vulnerable and used social distance and hand washing/masks for others. We screwed up the economy for nothing.

VERIFIED

I don’t think they will shut back down. For the fact that it will effect people and what they do. They Willie go crazy and things may get bad

Bernard Thompson

If it spikes higher than the first go round.

Anthony Avila

They will try to fight it but with the trajectory the numbers are on it sure seems like they will need to do something to at least slow it.

They but it all on the table and is too late for them to back down. Florida is being accused of lowering the numbers, so i don't see hownthe could shut down, short of actually having hospitals so overwhelmed that theynwoukd have no other choice. Unfortunately the genie has been let out if the bottle....

Nope, not going to happened and would be tough to convince everyone to do it again. Especially those who have been out of work.

Derrick McQuinn

it'll be sure interesting to see what happens.  not only are more people testing positive but the hospitals are filling up too.

We just can't seem to do distancing correctly

Michael Johnson

I think they made their choice when deciding to “open up” that if they did they wouldn’t turn back... Just hope they accounted for healthcare resources and created a strategy to manage it.

The damn u and I should not be neighbors on the key board

And nice typo - very familiar with that one

I am not sure I would want total shit down again but I do think others need to be more responsible or we may have to.  It may be the only way to really keep people in check.

I think people will roll the dice, my wife (a massage therapist) still hasn't gotten to go back to work (OC Health has not allowed) and is starting to lose her mind. But to top if off the main place she works for would not survive a second shut down (yes they did get a loan through the government). And I think this is an issue for several other businesses, to top it off if we continue not to do business it could have a extended/long effect. I think based on that your going to have a lot more people saying hell no.
