Quarantine above. It's simple.

Open up the rest under guidelines and heightened precautions and awareness.

The shut down showed where the problems are. We've waited perhaps too long but now it is the time.

Strong correlation of COVID cases with
1)High population density
2)High population mobility
3)High dependence on rapid transit
4)Increased High risk behavior

Low density/mobility areas should open first
City Centers with known continuing outbreaks last

Rural america should not have shut down in the first place.

This has been an eye opener for people who use mass transit. I suspect the real estate in small towns is going to increase in value in the very near future.

Hmmm...now, many people are raging against the govt shutting down the country and businesses. People are protesting in Lansing, Etc. Freedom-loving eople are dusting off the Constitution, asking where is the govt granted an enumerated power to do all this stuff?

And that's the right conversation to have, regardless if you're a flubro or exponential hysteric.

So, I'll ask the same query here: where in the federal constitution or at the State level is the govt granted an enumerated power to lock up the citizens? Because someone with cool software cranked out a heat map? If President Hillary proposed something like this, we'd (rightly) be up in arms.

We either stand on principle or not.

Like Rush said, national policy is being made based on the interests of one city.
