Ah, gotcha. Yeah, I expect it to be extended until at least mid-May, personally. And that’s probably for the best. Then we can start opening things up and see what happens around mid-May, hopefully.

NC extended till May 8th. Cooper wants a downward trend of Symptoms, Cases, and hospitalizations for 14 days before his restrictions lesson. Basically the White House recommendations.
Mandy Cohen showed that NC's trends are still rising, so we can go ahead and kick that May 8th further down the road.

Yea May 8th ain’t happening for NC. It’s just now starting to develop in Wilkes and surrounding areas with cases. Maybe June.
This is just for phase 1, it was estimated that it would take 90 days before things get back to normal.

Reading Coopers reopening plan...phase 1 is essentially what we are doing now. Phase 2 is where some noticeable actual changes would be...and based on his timeline that isn’t until June, 5+ weeks. This will be a death knell to any small businesses holding out hope to survive. I know, tough decision. With Cooper, I can’t imagine schools opening up in the fall, colleges included.

Here’s your weekly edition of positive and encouraging COVID-19
Cooper’s plan looks pretty close to the White House plan. Looks pretty good to me. Maybe May 8th will be the last extension of the shelter in place order needed, although I’m not holding my breath. Even once it’s lifted, though, things will not be normal for a while. And I worry we’ll be right back in this situation next winter.

Breaking from the WH briefing today...lines up with what I said early on about virus susceptibility to heat and how summer could help virus suppression or slowing of the virus transmission.
This is DHS science and technology division research.
“Summer-like conditions, are going to create a condition, where transmission is decreased”

The above information is the reason I've been keeping some of my used PPE on the dashboard of my car during the day since the very beginning. Heat, humidity, and UV light harm viruses. That isn't new research.
Gonna be very interesting to see how this plays out.

Sweden resisted a lockdown, and its capital Stockholm is expected to reach 'herd immunity' in weeks
Sweden went against the grain by keeping public life as unrestricted as possible when the coronavirus hit. Now, it says its strategy appears to be working.

Sweden may be a model for the rural and suburban communities of the United States, but the urban areas will likely need to stay locked down for the entire year.

Overnight Thursday, there were just over 250 additional cases of COVID-19 reported in Florida, but that number more than tripled in the evening report from the Florida Department of Health, which showed an additional 816 cases in the state.

Not happy with cooper at all, he should have opened up. nation , this state cant survive closed .
Terrible decision on his part, also with south carolina opening up and nc staying closed wonder if sc gets a boon in business because of nc patrons.

You got love Drudge. For whatever reason he has been all over Trump:
Looks like that’s it folks for stimulus. McConnell said he will try his best to block anymore stimulus that creates more debt.
I was hoping for additional relief for May but they want to reopen parts of the country instead to help the economy.

Georgia is back open! Hope everyone gets out and catches a movie, goes out to eat, goes to the bowling alley, works out at the gym, and gets those hair cuts! Time for life back to normal!
