Let us all be careful

If you are like me.you do not like having your hands in your pockets. I would love to be working and I am sure that you  feel the same way.We are all  getting anxious. But here is the problem, things are just not going to jump start and we are all going to be playing  catch up with our bills and our lives.Caution, the harsh reality is that the United States represents 1/3 of the known cases in the entire world and 25 percent of the worlds deaths; but what about the unknown. It is difficult to have any faith in the comments that come out of the White House. We still need to have universal and accurate testing in place. Our nation lags far behind in what we should be doing; daily figures misrepresent  the reality. Worldwide testing is inevitable; it will take years to accurately test the population of the United States and God knows how long to test the rest of the globe.Public safety is this nations number one priority. The economy is a subset. I do not believe that businesses have been able to plan for the new normal.  Every business will have to develop new criteria in their individual workplaces. Social distancing and other mitigation: masks,gloves and hygiene will be with us for some time. Reopening our varied economy is very complex. Caution is absolutely mandatory.Listen carefully to the daily statistics..the media is only reporting what is known. The unknown is what we all have to be concerned about and at the same time deal with. The risk to the public of restarting things in a reckless manner outweighs the immediate result. Businesses have to have concrete plans; unfortunately.it will be trail and error. That in itself is going to be very difficult.
