Graduation ceremonies were cancelled in most places. Why didn't they get the students in line standing at the spots marked on the floor at Wal-Mart and announce the names over the speakers?Or parade them through Home Depot...
Without getting political, the government handled this completely bass ackward. It is the first time in history that the healthy people were quarantined. I know my opinion counts for absolutely nothing, but I think they should have quarantined the elderly and those with underlying conditions and allowed those who are young and healthy to continue working. If you get sick, stay home.And if you're asymptomatic? How many people are running around infecting others and not knowing? It only takes one.
That is what sick days are for. When you recover, go back to work.
Let it run its course and allow people to build an immunity to it.It is running its course. That's why a hundred thousand of you are dead. How many deaths are acceptable to give the remainder herd immunity?
One of the guys I work with tested positive for the antibody test and never had symptoms. He has no idea when he was exposed.And no idea if he infected anyone else. It only takes one.
And if you're asymptomatic? How many people are running around infecting others and not knowing? It only takes one.I guess you missed the part where I said to quarantine those who are elderly or have other underlying conditions that would make catching it more dangerous. I also said to let those that are young and otherwise healthy go back to work. It won’t help anyone if those that need to stay home due to underlying health conditions don’t have a job to go back to when this is over due to businesses shutting down. Let the young healthy people keep things running for those that can’t.
Assuming you haven't shut down your entire workplace by infecting everyone before you realise you're even sick.It is running its course. That's why a hundred thousand of you are dead. How many deaths are acceptable to give the remainder herd immunity?And no idea if he infected anyone else. It only takes one.
And if you're asymptomatic? How many people are running around infecting others and not knowing? It only takes one.No matter your view, bottom line is that the majority of the ones that are dying from the virus (actually from the virus) are elderly or have underlying health conditions and are NOT following the guidelines of quarantine.

Now, back to the hospital policy being ridiculous... how does having two negative test from 1-2 weeks ago prove I didn’t catch it any time after I was tested?!?!

Which you will not catch by testing people even every day.
How many deaths will happen regardless? How many deaths will happen and have already happened due to lockdown with people not seeking medical care, not willing or able to get regular preventative care, with increased suicides, and who-knows-what if the economy totally fizzles out? The lockdowns were supposed to be short (couple of weeks), temporary measures to prevent overwhelming healthcare facilities and should have been based on localities with such a threat. Not whole States, and certainly not for months.
Remember that around half of all deaths have been due to nursing home residents not being properly protected, and in some cases (like NY) put at far worse risk due to horrible policies. Almost all the remainder were high-risk, who are the ones who should be isolating and taking extra precautions until an effective treatment or vaccine is available. Locking down of everyone else, once we knew what was going on, was/is insanity.
With the exception of those who can't care for themselves, everyone has remarkable control over preventing their own infection with relatively simple hygiene measures. They can judge their own risk and should be free to take whatever measures they deem appropriate for themselves, but not for others.

Excuse me for being smug, but we're sitting here inside our closed state borders, watching what happens when 'muh freedoms' comes up against the greater good.
And we're genuinely surprised that you haven't full on started shooting each other - yet.
