    That's fair, but like every other part of the economy, the restart will be slower than optimists expect.

    Has anyone here gotten then antibody test? I’m doing it Friday, mostly because I think that that there is a decent chance that I was exposed and I’d love to know.

    I would like to know too. I'd like to get one for my son. But they seem very unreliable so far.

    The obnoxious governor of Florida spiked the football in a diatribe against the libruhl media today, proudly claiming victory over those who said his state would have a serious problem if it reopened. He forgot to mention a couple of things:
    1) He has been hiding data from his constituents for weeks.
    2) There's plenty of info to suggest people aren't yet eager to return to normalcy. OpenTable reservations have been down 81% over last year according to a seven-day average statewide. They're down 87% year over year in Georgia.

    Perhaps the spread has stopped because people remain reluctant to follow the lead of the gun-toting, capitol-storming Trumpists who claim Amurrica has been killed because they can't get their hair done or pray to Donald Trump in their house of worship.

    Yup. Factor in governors either too eager to please Trump or not able to withstand criticism (looking at Kemp in Georgia and DeSantis in Florida) and some people's determination to figuratively - if not physically - shoot the bird to anyone from the medical community urging them to use caution ... this cannot come as a surprise.

    Then cases will spike, deaths will increase and they'll throw up their hands and ask what went wrong as if they didn't know. Wash, rinse, repeat ...
