This guy comes across as a larger and larger clueless circus clown by the hour. Like Cuomo, he throws in “data and science” as if saying it makes their decisions question-proof. There is data to go the opposite way that they are going but nobody with media power cares. So ya.
.@GovMurphy @GovPritzker @GavinNewsom Some data & science:

- There are almost no Covid deaths in under age 20.

- If this age spreads it, they can do it now anyway.

- 79% (NY) households don’t even live with children under 18.

- No school/unemployment cause abuse & deaths.
- Goal of flattening the curve was to spread out the cases so that hospitals/doctors can accommodate. So of course if you open up the case count may rise. Are you better prepared now? Who says open like it’s Feb 15? Open with measures such as distancing/smaller crowds only.

#LockdownGovernors
💥 🔥 💣 “Parks, beaches, as long as they're not cheek to jowl, cycling, walking, this is good... Enjoy nature, it’s good for us, and it has very low risk of spreading the virus.” - Tom Frieden, CDC head under Obama.

What say you now #LockdownGovernors?

"It definitely spreads more indoors than outdoors... The virus droplets disburse so rapidly in the wind that they become a nonfactor if you're not really very close to someone outdoors.” - Roger Shapiro, a professor @HarvardChanSPH.

What say you “data & sceince” Governors?
- NY was locked in March with the thinking that there will be around 1 million cases at Apex and 30K+ in the ICU. Prudent step at the time. But antibodies tests suggest that NY had 2+ million cases at Apex, but only 5,100 ICUs. ICU need is 90% lower than feared.

#DataAndScience
- @NYGovCuomo said today that according to antibodies tests in NYC, 12.2% of healthcare workers had the virus compared to 19.9% of the general population which had the virus. Basically, those who go to work and interact with Covid patients are less likely to have been infected!
