Is this a done deal, that is after the fishing opener, wow what a crushing blow to bait shops, resorts, hotels, motels and restaurants...
Although there may still be a lot of people fishing.

Hopefully he releases some specific data to support that.

May 13 is a done deal from what the article says. Also heard it on MPR. June 1 is just my suspicion. It seems that schools being closed equates to businesses being closed, so if kids don't go back to school..."non-essential" businesses aren't gonna re-open. In the metro, don't some schools go into the first or second week of June?

That's nuts. May 1st is good enough and we can start rolling back restrictions to get back to normal. I think people will accept a couple more weeks, but once other states letting people go back to normal the pressure will mount.

We will begin to see a rebellion. Pretty sure it's already begun. As we were driving around over the weekend, we noticed an awful lot of cars sitting at places where we know there aren't that many drivers. I think most folks had resigned themselves to the May 1 date, but if this keeps getting extended and extended and extended...people are just going to say fuck it.

I think June 1 will effectively close more than half of the bars/grills/whatever in much of outstate MN. July 1 will almost certainly do so. Ain’t going to happen. The businesses in our area are hanging on by the skin of their teeth now. They will start opening. Lose their business is not an option.

Yup, then the state will fine them and then the lawsuits will happen. We've been walking a very dangerous line here with willingly giving away (or having them taken away, depending on your viewpoint) our constitutional rights.

I can go a bit longer, but at some time we got to admit that the small town hospitals should be ready for this.
Maybe we should just get it over with.
I just started to change my mind today.

My friend in bemidji just had a close 38 yr old friend who got Covid 19 perfect health no conditions and it damn near killed him. Had to induce a coma since he was coughing so hard. Was in ICU for three weeks and now needs a kidney replacement and then you hear about the elderly with tons of conditions which are barely sick...go figure. Messed up either way you look at it.

The 38 year old guy in Stacy MN came down with it and 2 days later was dead. Its starting to happen around here now. And it ain't just the old people that have to worry. But we need to get back to work, businesses need to get back to work or there will be no businesses.

I hope your friend does ok. In this time of fake news, you never know what to believe, but I read that xs use of ventilators is injuring the tissues and not the covid. The article said just oxygen should be used as much as possible on people. I also know that what works on 4 out of 5 cows would leave one cow where some other treatment is better. I assume the same is true for people and there have to be (thank goodness) different opinions between doctors.

Have you guys heard Walz extended the stay at home order to May 13th? I got the email straight from him after 8pm last night.
