Syag: It all depends on how much you value a life placed at risk by accelerating the opening faster than the public health experts recommend. I have no problem with Montana or West Virginia moving quickly to reopen whatever segments of their economy remain closed. To me, the political and economic pressure to reopen NYC before the public health experts agree that its safe is reckless. The economic pain is real and gets worse every day but so was the reality of trucks line up outside the hospitals and funeral homes to hold the overflow of bodies just a month ago. Call it a “lie” if you want, but a slower reopening seems more prudent and should outweigh economic considerations.
