I figured that was an assumption at this point. There's going to be more infected people than we know about, and possibly a few deaths slipping under the radar at times as well. The kicker to watch with the tests we have now seems not to be the number of positives, but rather the rate of positives (which so far has hung around 7% pretty consistently).Anyone else feel like the cases is holding steady only because we have been stuck at testing 700 per day for like 3 weeks?
Then idk why Kimmy is using our "data" to make decisions.I figured that was an assumption at this point.

Hey man she's the expert, not the Iowa Board of Medicine and not Dr. Fauci. She knows more than both of them. Putting that community college education to WORK!Then idk why Kimmy is using our "data" to make decisions.

Can’t wait to hear about the data today

Apparently essential:
Romantix, an adult entertainment store with nine locations across the state, remained open as of Friday. Romantix operates two Des Moines locations, at 2020 E. Euclid Ave. and at 1401 E. Army Post Road. The stores are open 24/7 and offer sex toys, lingerie and adult DVDs.
Car dealerships are not included in the Iowa closure orders.
Several craft and fabric stores remain open, including Hobby Lobby, Michaels and JoAnn Fabrics. Such stores have so far not been listed in any of the governor's orders.

No presser today.

It's the weekend. Kick back, and take the day off from speaking to the public about a global pandemic affecting your state.
Needs to come up with new, creative ways to answer the same questions.
No presser today.
Getting towards 2% death rate of confirmed cases for Iowa by my count, give or take.
WI is getting closer to 3%.
US is at 2.6%.
It's rising. I'd still like to know where we are vs. what a place like Italy or Spain was like at the same time in spreading.
What's your point?
1. I don't agree that Romantics is essential, but I would also venture that there is never more than 5 people in there at one time so I don't see it as a huge issue.
2. Car dealerships will not be closed under a shelter in place as they are deemed essential by Homeland Security.
3. Those fabric stores are open under the guise that they are selling fabric for masks. So with a SIP they will still be open.
I am neither for or against a SIP in place because essentially we are operating under a SIP without it being called that. In fact we have more restrictions than some places that are in a SIP.
So my stance is who the hell cares if we say there is a SIP because we've pretty much closed all non-essential businesses.
My point was just that there are a number of “essential” businesses that continue to function that IMHO are decidedly not. With the exception of federally exempted essential businesses (not sure which all those are) I’m assuming Reynolds could shut more down if she wanted to.What's your point?
