as a nurse (which shouldn't hold much merit), i think ben shapiro had the greatest point regarding this situation and the legality behind it. I think it was a good idea for the initial response of the govt to shut down public spaces as this pandemic started to roll out in high gear, imo i don't see a constitutional infringement, and i can't imagine that our fathers would disagree with that. But as the weeks have gone by, and the number of cases have NEVER reached near what we thought it would (in hawaii at least), i think we are edging very close to being unconstitutional in our lockdown. There has to be a risk benefit assessment when it comes to this. Right now the risk is VERY low for Hawaii, so there should be no reason why we are locked down the way we are. What liberals and the media fails to recognize is that each state has its own unique issues. We cannot treat every state like its NYC or LA. There are 50 states and thousands of counties around the nation. To say its wrong for some states to open up while others are suffering is totally absurd. And to think that we won't have a bump in cases as we open up is purely ignorant at best. Yes, we will see an increase in cases as we open up, but, how will we know that for sure unless we open up? I think as long as we have a reasonable number where our hospital units are not being over loaded, we should continue to march forward with everyday life. When the govt starts to forcefully keep these businesses closed without a evidence based rationale, that is where it crosses the line IMO.
