If S&L started this whole debate with "Illinois is doing a lot better than Ohio, because blah blah blah," then this whole thing would haven taken a different path.  Instead he wanted to be pompous and try to shame/ridicule justin and now he is stuck continuously moving the goal posts.   That's the problem with the "middle man, but not really" schtick. 

I am willing to bet S&L does not have any clue what is going on in Ohio outside of a few anecdotal examples, yet he gives Illinois a 99.9% compliance rate and apparently Ohio is Somalia. 

Yeah totally man!!!!

 From my experience - and I think I would know - the common problem has been large family functions and parties. I’ve talked with several COVID patients who were at graduation parties or family events and, whoops, turns out someone there was actually positive. 

Where in Ohio have the cases been spiking btw?

Pretty sure it's in the most populous counties (Franklin, Cuyahoga, Hamilton, etc)

More densely packed people = faster/easier spread.

Thanks. 

From what I've seen, Hamilton county's spike is in like 2 or 3 zip codes.

No clue what your first point is. I think Ohio is doing it wrong and I say that on here. Are you guys seriously that butthurt because I call someone an idiot while I make a point? Jesus, bunch of sissies you all became.

Who’s “fault” is it early on in Illinois? Idk if that’s a black and white answer. The fault is probably on me and the citizens of Illinois because we were out and about. But we also didn’t know how to stop the spread of Covid. Ever since it’s been shutdown and gradually reopening  and getting back to some normalcy, it’s really helped our cases. Not sure if that answers your terrible question or not?

Why is it impossible for you to ever show any respect for anyone else’s response or thoughts? Of course these forums are all about disagreeing and keeps it interesting but you post as if you are the only one on here that’s posts and thoughts are correct. You can call whatever names you want, can’t imagine anyone cares but it’s constant with your “I’m doing it right and I’m the end all/never wrong on the best ways”

Spiking big in little ol Athens. Had 29 cases on June 30th and two days ago were at 193. All schools in county have shut down summer sports workouts and 127 of the 193 were ages 20-29

I think everyone here gets it (I hope Spock wears a mask but who knows). It is possible to be out and doing it safely and responsibly which Justin seems to be doing. 

But yeah, if he were to close things down, the same people who bitched incessantly about having to wear masks wouldn’t see their faults. 

I could actually see it being a major shit showif he did that. 

No i dont wear a mask.

My friend went to athens about 30 days ago. He said you wouldn’t even know athens knows what Covid is.

That’s my point with this shit.

So the cases were reported because these people are in ICU units or are very sick?  Or just young college kids getting tested and they are positive but were never sick.

Context here matters

Of course you don't...way to stay on brand at least. 

Looks like Walmart will require all customers to wear masks. I applaud the measure, and can't wait to see how many people will be upset at it.

He should grab the mosquito through a wire fence analogy. 100% wrong, but powerful.

There’s no science behind this, no well-intentioned concerns about public health… This is anti-science bullying, a form of population and communication control that will end the day after President Trump leaves office.

I was at their farmer’s market and 90% had masks on....went to their Lowe’s and about 40% maybe.

My FB peeps that spend their daily mission to wear masks and how they want to move from Jackson to Athens because Athens takes it seriously....it’s lol, it’s the same here and there. FWIW I wear mine in the stores and for take out. It’s truly no big deal. I’ve not been nearly perfect with it as I’ve been around my daughter who resides in Marietta area and works in the pharmacy and I’ve been around my sister and her family who live in Columbus. Temp checks but unmasked around my athletes outdoors.

Its different in my area for sure. No big cities within an hour. In our 4th month we’ve had zero deaths and only a few hospitalizations. We don’t see the monster crowds like Columbus and others. It’s really not “hit home” so to speak. The FB screamers make me laugh because I’ve seen every one of either their spouses or kids out without masks where they should have them on....the same ones are teachers afraid to return to school they say but just returned from Hilton Head. I at least appreciate your consistency in all of this.
