. @GovMikeDeWine spends very little time, if any at all, sharing a medical/statistical defense for reopening the state of Ohio.

In fact, he just said the opposite: "The coronavirus is not gone. It is real and it is deadly."

DeWine did say the new stage in Ohio& #39;s coronavirus response is developing a society that can & #39;learn to live with the virus.& #39;

That& #39;s not a medical or statistical defense. That& #39;s an economical and financial defense.

One more time: the essence of America& #39;s coronavirus response boils down to balancing health/statistics with economics/personal financial perils.

We shut down based on the former. We& #39;re reopening based on the latter. The balance, meanwhile, is left to placing "trust" in people.

If we& #39;re left with trusting people, one wonders why we ever shut anything down in the first place.
