Number of death makes much bigger difference. Death rate is very low being most people are asymptomatic.

Better to live alone, work from home, and have zero family, roommates, or friends... and stay away from your neighbors.

Do not ask me how I know this

Yup. People staying home doesn’t mean they didn’t have contact within 6’ of another person who didn’t stay home. So staying home means nothing. You need to avoid contact with everyone. Some cultures that’s impossible. They are touchy feely get in your personal space kinda people. Those are the ones getting sick and spreading it.

The death rate from CV is close to 4%. Not very low. For argument say you have 50 people you care about and two die. That is not a very low death rate

There is a reason why CA has such a low rate of CV. Florida opened up its state on Monday and now reports 2500 new cases as of yesterday.

Opening on Monday can't have anything to do with new cases on Friday. It takes longer than that for the virus to incubate.

Maybe your point was that they weren't ready to open because cases were still increasing?

All reports I’ve seen don’t come close to 4%. Do you have a link?

Lockdowns are useless and the whole epidemic panic more and more clearly appears to be manufactured.
Georgia reopened long time ago, more than two weeks ago, and no increase in deaths, just continued decrease.
ALL of the countries in the world had either hundreds or dozens times lower death rates of covid (!!!) than the US and Western Europe. Sounds like someone "had" the sheep this time...

US death rate was published as 0.5% over and over and over, after NY, Santa Clara, etc, etc, mass testing, and this was voiced by Cuomo as well, but no, they keep repeating idiotic old info about "several percent" coronavirus death rate: the sheep were had big time, clearly. It is a virus with slightly higher mortality than typical flu and lower mortality than some flu strains.
At this point the real question is who wanted it all and why it was spun this way.

Go anywhere on the internet. But not to Trump agenda driven sites.

Ok, my figures might have been off a bit. Seems to be be closer to 6%

And you go to science-backed sites, actual research and and Democrat Cuomo own quotes from public speeches, and stop spewing nonsense about death rate. The real one in the US is around 0.5%, end of story, discussed to death here already.
