does no one point out that if we had a robust testing system we COULD come out?? I just don't get it. it's so frustrating that they're yelling at the lockdown itself instead of the cause of the lockdown. trump is toilet failing in front of the entire world and they're screaming at the pants for being full of poo poo. i just crafted the perfect metaphor.

This is just the dumbest loving thing and completely unnecessary. What exactly are they trying to protect against there?

It's gamification / skinner boxes before gaming.

Had they stayed the course and powered through they'd probably be in a better place now, shouting "i'm trying to delete it" when your dying customer base gets upset probably sealed their fate.

Compulsory shock collars that zap when less than 6 feet from another non-household collar. But you give me the remote zapper controls and I'll make sure noone abuses this foolproof system.

If you are going to open up at that point, just make people use masks. That's all that's needed. The plastic poo poo is just loving fake security poo poo. Breathe and air doesn't just loving stop when it hits plastic, it goes up and around and outwards.

Why do people think reopening after a real lockdown is suicide? Like if you have any meaningful testing and tracing congratulations, you won, it will be extinct in a few months there.

Maybe also "wear a face shield when facing unavoidable expectorate." Not "the casino is fine because you're sitting in front of a plexiglass barrier."

Just trying to be sympathetic. Also, our track and trace effort was an app that simultaneously only stored data on the phone and had an AWS hosting element, while also needing to be on in the foreground to work properly. So, uh, yeah
