I Have Something To Say About Coronavirus / Covid19

It doesn't, and most thinking people understand this. The problem is that many of the restrictions really are not helping. The more we can safely open the better for all of us.

The elective surgery ban in my state was to create space and save resources for the surge in Covid patients. We are the nations third worst hot spot. Yet, we are only at 1/2 to 2/3 capacity in our hospitals, Icu's and ventilators. At the same time one major health system has closed one hospital and laid off another 2500 health professionals system wide. We have surgeons, therapists, rehab specialists losing their jobs because there are no elective surgeries. That attempt to save resources ends up doing just the opposite of what was intended.

We took a lot of emergency steps, it is time to take a second look and see what we can do now that we are starting to get a handle on things.

This goes across the board....evaluate, reevaluate, and adapt to the situation.

I think that'll be the general plan, or at least part of it.

When they talk about reopening, it's not going to be like flipping a switch., Just open up more things and ease into it on phases so if there is a spike in numbers it can be backed off

My work has said we won’t be returning to work all at once.

Excellent idea....but you know those asked to go to work won't like to see their colleagues working from home. So that's where the problem will start...

Yeah, steps is the way to go. European countries have been doing it in steps (e.g. Germany) and here in the UK we plan to take it in steps once lockdown is lightened.
