    It’s tough for Hawaii but I can at least somewhat understand their position given that they are geographically isolated they can effectively insulate themselves from COVID

    The tourism angle was fucked whether they shut it down or not so whatever

    Disagree. There was a way to allow tourism and they fucked it up. Big time
    Disagree

    People aren’t lining up to fly ... and they certainly aren’t lining up to fly to places where typical activities when there aren’t on the table

    In this case, the decision for Hawaii was effectively to isolate allowing the rest of the economy to remain open or stay open and operate at limited capacity levels

    I don’t know the numbers but I can understand the logic ... and they are a unique example

    Big news!

    Yeah, just one
    I was on Maui in March. Lots of locals at the airport perimeter asking arriving tourists to turn around. Glad I was leaving, not arriving.
    Why didn't you go to China when you were well on your way?
    Surely would have been safer with no Trump!

    I had no business to do in China.

    I can understand the logic ... no clue how well it is working or not in terms of prevention

    I’ve also said from the beginning the economic, social, etc fallout from this is going to be as bad or worse than COVID
