Cases are declining in many locations that had very light lockdowns, or no lockdowns at all. I suggest you do more research rather than just going all-in on your prior assumptions. --- SmartMuffin - Because anything less would be uncivilized - https://imgur.com/W66HUUy http://dudewheresmyfreedom.com/ <cite>SmartMuffin posted [p:939777598] in Politics C...
