The issue is the moving goal posts, and Portnoy kinda nailed it. Pretty tough when your life is being wrecked to try and understand what the goal is and then to have that shift for political reasons is pretty frustrating.
All I heard for a month was flatten curves and hospital beds. I dont think I have heard that in a month.
Its now "until a vaccine....."

The moving goal posts are a result of the same thing that all the deniers on this board are latching onto- they are watching the DATA!
You impose a bunch of restrictions. Then you watch all the statistics. (Plus you watch other variables, like whether we have enough tests.) And then, based on the new data, you adjust.
And the point is, I trust the adjustments proposed the doctors, who are experts, over what I think are ideologically motivated people who don't know anything about the science and just cherry-pick whatever small piece of data allows them to argue "LET'S OPEN BACK UP", because that's what they wanted to do anyway.
The doctors are being honest and learning more. The deniers are not.
