Official live update of spread of COVID19

[Mermaid]

Well they sure as hell don't want you returning while the virus is still on the lamb

The effects of long-term isolation and people being unable to work and feed their families will lead to tremendous devastation as well. 
IMO, maintaining stay-at-home/shelter-in-place orders for 12-18 months--or potentially even much, much longer--would be unreasonable considering that most people infected with COVID-19 will have mild symptoms and not become critically ill as a result of the virus. Additionally, everyone is not going to be lining up to take a new, barely-tested vaccine--mandate or not, regardless of what Bill Gates says.

At some point, much of the onus of prevention may have to fall on those who are at highest risk and/or those who provide care for them.

People are dying. A lot of people. I do not understand why this is so hard for people to understand. I do not understand why people are so reluctant to believe the news, but they will believe all the cockamamie conspiracy theories on the interwebs. But I suspect you will find out soon enough. 
Perhaps it has a lot to do with the president who seems to be egging people on to protest the orders?

What a strange age we live in.

I am going to line up to get a vaccine. I am not alone because there are a lot of us who still believe in science. 
Whitmer is doing exactly what she needs to do, it is the ONLY thing to do, and I am proud to have voted for her.
