Atlanta Back to Phase I Lockdown(?)

It would be nice if they Mayor would pay attention to the now nightly shootings instead of focusing on interviewing with national news outlets and masks.....

Is follies open?

Follies is NOT open.

So the order to close clubs in another city will not affect a club that never opened in the first place? Good to know. :-)

these dumb motherfuckers. My county has bumped to over 5% infection rate, we have almost triple the positive cases since the count on June 20, and restaurants will probably be shut down (except for take out) starting next week, the vast majority of them have already closed down in-house dining voluntarily.

Rural American and the 'burbs are turning into what New York was a month ago. Hang on for this interesting ride...

Just wait until schools open. The good news is kids almost never end up in the hospital due to covid, thank God. The bad is there is more evidence they can be asymptomatic carriers than we once thought

Follies open when?

More lockdowns coming soon to city near you. Obviously, closing businesses and interrupting incomes is clearly less intrusive and less injurious than mandating masks and social distancing. So fucking senseless.

Maybe, but NY/NJ/CT aren't done either. As CA, FL and TX have all shown, lockdowns don't make COVID go away, they just delay the inevitable spread. The northeast states are still effectively locked down. What do you think will happen when those states finally open up too?

Yes, the goal is not to prevent people from getting it. The goal is to keep the rate down to what the healthcare system can handle.

Has anyone seen anything to explain why the deaths are not ramping up? there has been enough lag with the new case surge that there should be an uptick in deaths. They are up slightly but not exploding. Is it because these new cases are younger demographics?

Wow. Never saw this coming, after states like Georgia and Florida opened for business way back when. Must be serious if Bunker Bitch is wearing a mask in public.

Gold, I'm too lazy to go find the links and post them but what I've read basically says the the death rate was expected to stay under 2% and as more positive cases are diagnosed that the hospitalizations and death rate would trail behind what many shill, doomsday models were predicting. The media has provided zero context for any of the numbers the so breathlessly report. The one thing everyone and everything seems to agree on is the much higher risk for the elderly, and those with significant underlying medical conditions.

Not sure if Follie was that kind of place but I figured smart dancers and smart customers would be more prone to phone number swapping as soon as clubs opened.
