Here's the thing about GA... almost 60% of their population is in Atlanta, and many, many things are still closed there. The general feeling in ATL is that the white Republican governor doesn't care about the higher-risk urban population, and it seems many staying at home and not reopening their businesses despite Kemp's all clear. Unless someone is showing stats about Atlanta specifically, GA's steady numbers have no context with regards to the ability to reopen safely. The same goes for FL. The media is all about FL being open. The tri-county area of Dade, Broward, and Palm have been largely closed, and are just beginning to reopen now. Those counties represent over 30% of the state.

This only proves how these decisions should be made by the most local government as possible.

Trump > Cuomo= Cuomo
Comou > BDBlasio =Cuomo

it was cute to watch BDB making decisions about school and Cuomo ripping him off that he doesn't have the authority

Yes, but there has to be some coordination where the decisions of a local government can adversely affect the surrounding areas.

Actually DJT has been pretty consistent when it comes to state rights.

Apparently not having an  adverse affect on Atlanta or the Tri county...

This is exactly why government mandated lockdown is a terrible idea.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

A catch 22

They only tested asymptomatic people? What percentage of their population had symptoms (and perhaps never had a formal test to confirm)?

I assume they mean currently asymptomatic. If they tested only those who said they never had symptoms these people are straight out of Chelm.

Wasn't sure where to post that tidbit, so I figured that he must have some Novel connection to Wuhan.
