We should see some indications of the direction today at the Task Force briefing.

I have pretty much lost all confidence in our government to handle this pandemic properly. And we are going to see unemployment sky rocket into the millions. I see no recovery on the horizon. Just more bad news each day.

The severity of the pandemic is shown on a hourly/daily basis but the fight takes weeks. For example: ventilators. One of the manufacturers (Phillips) said it will ramp up production and should be able to give a 4X increase . . . in EIGHT WEEKS!

The crisis is no longer with Joe Public being sheltered in place and businesses closed. It's the failure of our health care systems to deal with the sick. They are being overwhelmed. The death rate keeps climbing!
