Georgia was one of the first states to reopen. It has been reopen for over 2 months now.

"Kemp’s move to reopen was condemned by scientists, high-ranking Republicans from his own state, and Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms; it even drew a public rebuke from President Donald Trump, who had reportedly approved the measures before distancing himself from the governor amid the backlash."

Georgia's COVID-19 death rate has not increased. At all.

"Gov. Brian Kemp’s aggressive scheme to lift Georgia out of COVID-19 lockdown may cost many thousands of lives, according to models prepared by epidemiologists and computer scientists at Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in partnership with The Daily Beast.

By contrast, under Kemp’s current plan to reopen, if approved businesses returned to just 50 percent of their pre-pandemic activity (or “contact”) levels, that range could reach 1,604 to 4,236 deaths. At 100 percent of pre-shutdown activity, the projected final body count could soar to a range between 4,279 and 9,748."

I am shocked that people still believe the garbage that comes from epidemiologists and politicans. If any of the above quoted models were accurate, Florida should be over 6,000 total COVID-19 deaths right now, the actual number is 3,446.

A nation of hysterics and cowards. The 7-day average death rate in Georgia is the same that is was before "sheltering in place" was ordered in April.
