Data analysts could recommend a two-week shutdown after Thanksgiving if in-person celebrations cause a surge in coronavirus cases and hospitalizations in Virginia.
The idea of a lockdown ahead of the December holiday season was the strictest of possible mitigation strategies mentioned by RAND Corporation researchers in their most recent weekly update to state leaders.
RAND Corporation Senior Mathematician Dr. Carter Price has been tracking data and advising Gov. Ralph Northam’s response to the pandemic for months.
In an interview with 8News on Monday, Price predicted that Thanksgiving could be an inflection point for coronavirus spread in Virginia. He said the choice is between maintaining control and what could be the worst toll to date.
“If there is a lot of travel, if people are having big gatherings and socializing indoors…then this could be a super spreader event,” Price said.
Yeah, you assholes had a nice Thanksgiving, your not gettin’ away with that shit! No sir.
Another OPTION !!! Impeach the Governor in Va !!!
