NOVA is a hot spot. It makes clinical sense to keep that area shut down as long as possible. I am not sure they can even leave the house to vote. it is a shame.
I was in Arlington Monday. I saw more than one business with signs saying they would reopen on the 15th.

Yes I agree. NOVA should probably stay shut down through mid-November. No leaving the house even to vote, and no mail-in voting either. If it saves one life...
Theyll be allowed to vote on the MSNBC web site. If they cant figure out how, a ballot harvester will gladly assist them. :)
We are not a “hot spot” per se. Nobody seems to want to tell us where those “hotspots” are. Why not?
Gee, we are near Dulles and Reagan Airports, plus military airports/bases, have Amtrak as a coastal railway system plus internal lines and shortline systems (VRE/MARC,etc).
Plus we have tons of international travelers who live in No. Va. Duh!! Diplomats - DUH! Military personnel - DUH! International businessmen - Double Duh!! Red Chinese diplomats and embassy/consulates staff - Wu Hu Duh!
Chinese students up the Yangtze River - Duh!
Another curse - international and hometown journalists!!!
Yet people in No. Va. were out Sunday, shopping, walking, and being careful about “social distancing”, wearing masks where logical, and doing a lot of “carry out” eating (we did - Chinese food too, sans bats).
Common sense goes a long way to keeping us safe and healthy. Couldn’t telemed conference last week so I’m going in to see my gastroenterologist about a long postponed colonoscopy (due to cancer last year and a long recovery).
Nobody is going to kiss me, shake my hand, or do any probing right now. Just a talk about if and when to schedule the procedure, and we will be wearing masks like the Lone Ranger and Zorro (except they will be on our mouths/noses, not eyes, and definitely NOT upside down like Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Ca) showed us).
Again, common sense and some politicians telling us the truth about where the problem spots are, will go a long way to easing fears and getting our cities/towns open again so that people can work, get paid, and eat.
