    SOOOO… The rate is not spiking like they thought? With everything opened up and most people going about their lives as normal things should be running thru us like wild fire. BUT they not. People were willing to subject themselves to total shut down over FEAR. Yes there has been death related to this virus, but think it was BLOWN WAY OUT OF portion.

    Nod, this virus will be here for a long time. Who knows, it may never go away. Also, these numbers also include people from the very beginning who have either recovered, or sadly died. We fortunately have an option to wear a mask. Wear one if you feel the need. Oh, and by the way, yes! I’m one of those crazy parents that’s ecstatic the governor has made the decision to allow schools to operate at full capacity!

    Tell me again with the number of cases going up-and-up and up every week that it’s over and counts are going down as we ignore covid and masks.
