> the government should just let this run its course Isn't it just an opinion? I personally think that way. Why wouldn't I be allowed to think that?
You’re totally allowed to have that opinion and other people are totally allowed to think it’s idiotic, unless I’m missing you’re point?

hospitalization by state:
342 per million FL
569 per million CA
444 per million PA
442 per million NY
Can anyone point me to similar chart for death per million, by state, over time?
