Uh, why do you think some other states have hardly any cases??? Because we started distancing BEFORE it got a chance to spread at a high rate! What kind of sane person would put their guard down when it's still out of control in neighboring states, assuming there is no travel ban between those states?

You made a false claim that ALL religious gatherings were banned, and I proved you wrong. But you are wrong once again, and the courts disagree with you as do the Attorneys General of all 50 states. I guess you understand the Bill of Rights better than they do?

It is up to the church not the govement to have common sense at taking precautions. They are micromanaging with govermental powers and to me it feels like we are already in a police state when the national guard goes door to door of houses for a virus that has not even killed the same amount as the common flu. they should of selectively quarentened people instead of this broad lets assume everyone has the virus . even though scientifically anyone could have it the bill of rights is more important to preserve.
Because people in the field who are a lot smarter than you or I, have determined that due to the nature of this virus we are all assumed carriers unless proven otherwise and that not taking proper precautions is reckless behavior that is potentially dangerous to others. In turn, state governments are granted an enormous amount of power under the US Constitution to do what is necessary in addressing major threats to public health. That includes crowd limiting.

Because they have ruled that human life is more important than your friggin garden. Go figure...

That's certainly open for debate, but something tells me if they let this grow more out of control and your mother was in her death bed; you would be the first person out there saying "why didn't they do more to protect us!".

No but they can be found at fault for violating orders issued by state and local governments that were implemented to prevent the spread of a contagious disease.

A "suggestion" is unconstitutional??? Oh man I learn something new every day.

It has nothing to do with politics bro, it is you trying to turn it into that.

Huh??? For one, businesses can be shut down for a variety of reasons. Two, restaurants are not being forced to be shut down, but TEMPORARILY required to refrain from dine-in service in the midst of a public health crisis.





Bottom line, is this is all about YOU and the fact that you can't get a damn haircut right now. There are a whole lot of people who'd be happy to trade place with you right now, I promise.

Deaths per 1 million population is much lower in California and Florida than any of the other top 10 states.

NY tested 3K people that were out and about and found 14% already had antibodies for it

Here is the part that blows your mind...

Reuters) - New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said on Thursday a screening of 3,000 residents found that 13.9 percent tested positive for antibodies for the novel coronavirus, suggesting that some 2.7 million people across the state may have been infected.

We need to head back to work asap.
