I agree, the governor is not going to give in, this has become all political. Might as well get back to painting.

Sounds like you should be on lockdown where you are but a one size fits all lock down doesn't work and shouldn't be in place. There is a general consensus here in Wisconsin that we should open areas of the state that don't have the numbers to support this virus.
I only gave factual numbers here in our state, not anywhere else. Sooner or later every state will have to open, it unsustainable to think that we can go on like this.
but the facts are,. if everyone did what your suggesting, opening things up in lower amount area's
how would that not lead to things spreading to higher numbers
after all this started in China, , and made it all over the world pretty fast. due to folks traveling
if you allow states or even areas with low amounts to open, and travel into other places
your asking for things to bet worse not better!
correct me if you feel I am wrong, but the main way of controlling and slowing the spread down is ONLY by staying apart from each other s littl;e as possible!
you take that out of the equation, and you can have another, or a new major outbreak , like is happening in some other places
the main reason , locally to me, is things got so BAD so fast, was few folks were following the rule to stay at home
and cases were growing at super alarming rates
now that more folks are staying at home, and following things, are rates are still high but NOT as high as they were
the staying at home is sort of the key to it not getting worse
it IS out there, and many have it and don't know it! due to so few are being tested, or want to be tested!
I don;t have a great answer to solving anything
I would just hate to see things get worse due to jumping the gun and having to start over!
it sucks here, I cam tell you that,
deaths in the new paper every day and thousands of new cases every day!
and we ain't that far from many states
and interstate traveling, or getting supplies, either way, can bring it still!
this show ain't over yet!
til there is a cure, or better treatment
I think MY opinion, is things should still stay closed for a bit longer, till all states start to show a decrease in things and not still climbing!
let's see how they react when taxes double....and it will to pay for all this
Ooooo spicy!
Don't get in too big of a hurry, you got another month to wait...… Unless you want to come to MN and go fishing, then have at it! I know the resorts up north would LOVE to have your business.
Here's a guide to our opener dates. https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/fishing/seasons.html

I said I wasn't going to comment anymore but I guess what the heck, one more can't hurt. I think we really started to hear about COVID-19 around March 1st in Wisconsin, I have traveled by air in the US every week in March and April and quite frankly would not not have if I really did not have to to keep the business moving forward, but a large deal depended on it. My only point here is do what you feel comfortable with, I took risks obviously, I did not wear a mask at all, I did wash my hands constantly, and I tried to conscious of staying healthy. I will be home next week and plan on a relaxing week in the place that I plan on retiring to, Manitowish Waters, and then it's back to work again but that what we do to keep our business moving in the direction we have to and want to.
It's not for everyone, but it's my choice. Isn't that what America is all about? Choice and Freedom to pretty much do as you please lawfully?
I'll certainly look back on this and say that I did what I had to do and don't regret it, at all.
Hopefully this all comes to an end real soon and we get back to what I like about our great country, mainly all the good people that live in the US.
Remember, because you live here and are citizens you have choices and don't let anybody take those away from you.

The average age of deaths from the coronavirus in MN is 85 as of Saturday. This is media driven insanity.
You may choose to avoid traveling through Green Bay, Wisconsin.
(WFRV) Ever since Governor Tony Evers issued his Safer at Home directive closing non-essential businesses and asking people to stay home, Green Bay police have had a lot of reports of individuals ignoring his order.
“We have received hundreds of complaints in the police department about the violation of the order,” said Commander Kevin Warych.
But now, if the situation escalates and officers feel a need to take a stand, they have a new city ordinance on the books that imposes a large fine.
“Certainly hope we don’t have to use it and I’m sure the police would rather not have to use it,” said Alderman Randy Scannell.
This month Green Bay City Council adopted a state statute – concerning a violation of law relating to health – into the city’s ordinances. It gives police the power to issue a $376 citation to those ignoring the Safer at Home order.
“This is serious stuff. We need to obey this governor’s order,” Scannell said.
I'll let you guess the party that the Alderman belongs to AND he's also a proponent of legalized marijuana.
Not that there's anything wrong with that!!

I wasn't going to comment on this but a few of these got me going so here it is: MI is a huge state, land mass wise...just under 800 mi. from the MI/OH border by Toledo to the far NW tip of the U.P....so why in the H*LL do rural counties in the U.P. (such as ours), which have ZERO cases have to follow the same draconian "rules" as Detroit and the other epicenters of the infestation downstate? And the Wicked Witch (I was really tempted to use a B instead of a W) has mandated wearing of masks in public. Again, maybe that makes sense in high-density locales but a rural county with less than 10,000 residents total in 5,000+ sq miles?
So supposedly there's an exemption if you have a medical reason for not wearing one. I kind do in that with my cardiac issues anything that restricts breathing makes me subject to lightheadedness or even blackouts...then we'd have to get the lawyers involved and that's NEVER a good idea. So I will do just what I've done the whole time...use sanitizer (on the rare times when I can buy it), wash my hands frequently, and basically ignore the *itch !!!

True that! X2!
here in PA< we has a must wear a mask deal in effect, but anyone that has medical reasons for not wearing one is exempt
ours reads like this
no lawyer would be needed, but would be more inconvenient on you however!, or less, pending how you see it, might save you time going in a store to try and find things?
ours reads this below!
The order requires businesses to deny entry to customers who do not wear masks, "unless the business is providing medication, medical supplies, or food, in which case the business must provide alternative methods of pick-up or delivery of such goods," Gov. Tom Wolf's office said
The order states anyone over the age of two must wear a mask, unless they have a medical condition that prevents it.
