Pennsylvania's stay-at-home order extended through May 8
Philly Voice ^ | APRIL 20, 2020 | BY JOHN KOPP

Posted on 04/20/2020 11:07:33 AM PDT by conservative98

New COVID-19 cases in Pennsylvania have stabilized, but the statewide stay-at-home order will remain in place through May 8, Gov. Tom Wolf announced Monday afternoon. The order originally was set to expire April 30.

Additionally, curbside pickup is now available at 176 state liquor sales – a move that will help state officials determine whether curbside pickup can be expanded safely to other businesses currently closed by the pandemic.

Wolf said several coronavirus-related restrictions will be relaxed next month. Online car sales and some limited construction will be permitted beginning May 8. He called them the first "small steps" toward a return to normalcy.

"I want to caution that this is not going to be resuming operations as they were in February," Wolf said. "We still do not have a vaccine. We still do not have an antibody test, and we still do not have a way to cure COVID-19."

The announcement came as protesters outside the state Capitol called for an end to the shutdown.

Now comes the just two more weeks game..then two more. The minimum goal is keep the country closed through May to achieve a totally destroyed economy.

Just like talk radio said (I forget the host.) 2 weeks, then another 2, and another... They can’t say 2 more months. So they just say 2 more weeks and keep extending it.

Isn’t the Gov’s face mask the same design as the PLO?

Philly is ramping up as part of the New York spread.

Pittsburgh has cases.

But the rest should not be treated the same.

Cities like Philly need to be quarantined under stringent no travel guidelines.

The rest of us need a loosening up to get back to work.

This virus is where the elites live and they want to spread it.

Here’s the problem with antibody testing proposals.

- Say I take one and I am positive. I’m allowed to return to work.
- Say you test negative. You have to remain on lockdown.
- But you need an income.
- So you are going to go out and deliberately get infected so that you can recover and get back to work.
- You and 100 million of your closest friends.
- Which renders this entire lockdown thing moot.

They’ve done static analysis that does not take into account the real-world dynamics of human behavior.

Exactly. Fauci actually advocated this a while back. He said we need to pivot to 2 weeks at time narrative and then 2 more and then...

No, they won't. This is the litany of bullsh!t I have read here on FR:

If this goes past March 31st, people will go nuts and revolt.

If this goes past April 15th, people will go nuts and revolt.

If this goes past April 30th, people will go nuts and revolt.

Give it up. It ain't happening. Most people will accept this government-imposed sodomy for as long as they're told.
