without non-essential businesses, the essential businesses will seem non-essential

my mom and dad refused to ever be sent to these homes = they called them Mortuariums! Where we store the soon to be dead = for profit.

Everyone has an opinion and are scared. I get it. But I have to travel to Atlanta and also rural Georgia every few months. If you know anything about Georgia take Atlanta away and there are not any huge cities it’s very rural. Lots of farm land especially from middle Georgia South. Imo states should open up by counties. What works in Atlanta does not work in the rest of the state. My parents are from a county in western NC who only had 4 cases. I have an aunt and uncle who live in a county without one case and they are shut down. Truth is when it comes to quarantine one size does not fit all. Just because it’s opened up does not mean you have to go out. Remember the more that get it now without overwhelming the system the better we will be as a society. Quarantine is supposed to slow the spread and not stop it.

dude what did u expect from those Nursing homes. We know the coronavirus affects old people more than any other age group, because of the decaying immune system and respiratory problem found old elder people.

Let them open up. Natural selection will take it's course and society can only be better for it.
