Brought flowers to the cemetery, and cleaned off the headstones , after which we met my wife’s SIL at a school across the street , where we put our chairs under a tree and talked for two hours .

Kids all over the school , skateboarding, riding bikes, and the large playground was packed with kids ,it was nice to see . Lots of boats heading towards the lake , and quite a few folks getting beer at The Other Half . 

The news is running out of ammo for scare tactics ,it started with one ventilator per person infected ,then it went to number of deaths ,now we just report on positive cases . We are testing people at such a high rate now and they're using that number to try and show that the increase in positive cases is because of loosening up.

I’d imagine the rate of infected to tested hasn’t changed? That’s the only number that matters. Why must every shred of positive news be immediately followed by “But experts warn that...”

What irritates me the most is I live closer , to Toronto, Detroit, Pittsburg , and Cleveland then NYC ,yet people expect ,me to behave like I live in NYC ? 

That and it was flattering the curve , we did that easily, so,now it’s finding a cure . What ?  A cure for a virus that can mutate, ok .

See there is that, I will also say I don’t think this virus is any more deadly than the flu. It just seems to spread faster. The death rate is probably somewhere around .002 it’s just that the number of people infected vs the flu this year is much higher.

Take a look at clairmont village in the BX 43% of antibodies came back positive if the death rate was over 1% that neighborhood would have 6k deaths alone.

That beings said I think a slow opening and smart reopening will help stem the tide a little more

Yea I get that, they are still not supposed to
Be open. My son is 3 and all pre-K schools are closed. Daycare is closed except for essential workers. They have said they don’t see that changing anytime soon.

"But experts warn that antibodies do not mean you cant contract the virus again..."

"But experts warn that antibodies do not mean you cant contract the virus again..."

Correct but it does show how many people there had it and didn’t know. That is half the danger with this virus. It’s why Ny is doing so much testing compared to other states.

Or placed on a ventilator or were given the wrong drugs to combat an unknown virus or not given a straw with your ginger ale while sitting in the hospital.

One thing that scientists and doctors have found is correlation between people who are getting their asses kicked by the virus and vitamin D deficiency.

Its paying off ,he does addition,subtraction, reads already . He turned 4 in January.  We didn't want him to sit in a giant room full of toys all day like most daycare, they actually get him ready for school . He might be the only non jewish kid there but he is learning about that too.
