DAE believe the United States is not ready to start reopening the public?

Holy crap dude, pull your head out of the sand and look at the numbers. We still have plenty of states with increasing rates of infection and we can't test for shit.

Infection rates are way too high to be able to trace and isolate. The only reason why it's stabilizing in places is because of the stay-at-home orders.

Most likely some form of social distancing is going to have to be in place until we get herd immunity through a vaccine.

As soon as we reopen the infection rates will increase again which would just start a second wave. To avoid that we have to mitigate through aggressively testing to isolate people before they become contagious.

We can't even test people who are dieing in the hospitals so how confident are you that we can do sufficient monitoring to keep the rate of infection down?

We're not close from being truly ready but that's not stopping Trump from trying to force it open.
