Just because a bunch of Mr. Monks say there is a threat, doesn’t mean there is a threat. There is a threat of the flu, especially for that two year old who’s hair he was cutting, but not enough of one.
Same thing here. “Health threat” can not be a “catch all” to just fore people to do whatever you want them to do. All human interaction is some sort of health threat. It has to cross some sort of line. You know, like rats in the salad.
Well what matters is that he elected officials have decided that it is a threat.
We the people elected legislators who saw fit to give that decision making authority to an elected official.
You may not see it as a serious threat. I do. And we can agree to disagree. But the Governor of that state sees it as a serious threat and used her duly enacted powers to deal with it.
Again there is a question of the 1976 law superseding the 1945 law without specifically saying it was superseding the 1945 law. But that’s up to the courts to decide.
You can question her judgement all day long, but she was elected and has the law on her side.
Elections have consequences.
