Do That Which You Can Without Hurting the Economy

   I like it that in Utah, the stay-at-home rule was a request, not a matter for which you could get arrested. And, I do think you do everything you can to stop the virus -- everything that doesn't cause harm. From the beginning, I have been against shutting down anyone's job. Do everything you can to make it safe. Put see-through plastic canopies on each seat in restaurants, but don't prevent sit-down dining because that leaves food servers without their jobs. But, yes, if a person can work from home, have them do it. Yes, discourage social gatherings. And, when churches are willing, let them call off their meetings. You should do everything you can to stop the pandemic, but don't do anything that will take jobs away, because that is your economy. And, don't do anything that will cause farmers to destroy their crops. You damage your food supply system and that could be trouble.
