It’s the IHME model. It will change in 3 days.

Gee, I wonder if the first state with an official decree will start a landslide ... Real puzzler, that.

Oh, CNN decides which states are able to start opening up their economies, according to their interpretations of the guidelines and what "the model says." Haha

This is so moronic.

All states should open now.

Who decides? What criteria?

If your state frees up and not the one next door, how do you keep people from crossing over? Are goods from a "free" state contraband?

Should states which have international flights, or share border with a foreign country, stay locked down? How about sea ports?

Tourists will return as soon as the state rescinds their 14 day quarantine law for all people arriving in Hawaii.

Well I sure as hell don’t agree with CNN. Have we heard a more encouraging number elsewhere because if it really is just these 4 states and not until the first week in May were going to need more ammunition. Because this can not go another month.

As long as the strippers don’t fart COVID into people’s faces while they’re sticking dollar bills into the G-strings.

Good question. Interstate commerce vs. Intrastate commerce.
