    What about hotels, I’m working at one and I feel very unsafe. We dont take any extra precautions for this COVID19 , and I’m scared for my family and myself.

    Why doesn’t anyone seem to care when flu season comes around and people die? Do the math the death rates are about the same this year in Oklahoma and the nation…it is a good idea to use common sense practices and protect the elderly but to completely shut down all businesses may be their “death warrants “ will the economy ever recover? I just hope this has been studied and not just another knee jerk reaction to disinformation
