Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.If Trump doesn't push for opening things up soon, come November the Democrats could argue that he didn't do enough to help the economy, so I'd say that works both ways. Nevermind the fact that alot of people who were laid off during the pandemic willingly want to return to work in order to provide for their families, as they realize a government issued check or two won't cut it. People are getting sick and dying regardless of adhering to the quarantine guidelines. Less than two weeks ago my one uncle who lives in NJ informed me that his mother in law (who is a registered Democrat and all in favor of the lockdown restrictions) came down with the virus, regardless of her staying home most of the time and practicing social distancing. He suspects she got the virus from someone who delivered her groceries, hard to tell though. Fear can be a powerful motivator, but a rather poor one all the same.

@Fred_Snerd The worse may already be on its way, time will tell...
@Fred_Snerd The heaviest casualties have already occured in blue states, including mine.
@Fred_Snerd That might be one factor in the equation, but there could be others.
@Fred_Snerd Two correlations, which seems to not be related in population density and generally being poor, which is why minorities seems to be more vulnerable. Those with less money usually have poorer (nutritional) diets and poorer health and are more vulnerable.
@snytiger6 That's certainly a key factor, but there is no shortage of people in this country with chronic illnesses who are not poor though, and I'm one of those who would fall under that category. New Jersey is a reasonably wealthy state minus some cities such as Camden or Newark, and that state experienced more deaths than Pennsylvania, even though PA is a much larger state. So there are other factors that need to be taken into consideration.
@SpikeTalon That is why I said they seem to be acting independently of each other. They correlate as independent risks. Data is still coming in. Things wont' be totally clear until we are looking back in retrospect.
@snytiger6 You're right about that, no where near enough data yet on the matter.
