There is work we must do. Staying shut is not an option. Why is this so difficult to grasp?
Take health care. All those who would have had heart attacks, strokes, cancer diagnoses, etc. have mostly been home and sedentary. But their underlying health can only get worse. So as a reasonable first approximation all of the hospitalizations, ER visits etc that we have mysteriously avoided since late March are merely latent. They will happen, and they will he added to the usual May thru December demand. If we have ongoing covid, a second wave and so forth then factor that in too.
Our hospitals and health care providers are going to be super super busy going forward.
It is perhaps less true of barbers and police and others but it is still true. The work piles up folks. Ignoring it wont make it go away.
It will be interesting to see how long the elected officials in Virginia make absolute fools of themselves.
Right now they are saying no school for 2 yrs. lol.
Wrong! Hospitals are laying people off. They arent super busy and they wont be super busy until this lockdown ends.
