I live in Northern Italy. This last Spring we were in complete shutdown......it was illegal to leave your apartment for anything other than grocery shopping and going to the pharmacy or if you had a job in one of those. Carabinieri as well Stradale Polizia and Locale Polizia enforced this vigorously with checkpoints every where. This lasted from March 12-May 18th. We are currently experiencing cases at six times the levels we did last Spring and find ourselves in pretty much another nationwide lockdown except for five provinces (I live in Veneto and thankfully we maintain some limited freedoms). Italians shut down everything for ten weeks, consistently wear their masks, maintain social distance, eat only outside, etc., but here we are......there was no way this was going to be a one and done type scenario and especially in a free society.If the first shutdown -- and everything else the Trump Administration screwed up about our virus response -- had been handled correctly, it's likely that small businesses wouldn't have to be worried about another shutdown.
Trump should incite another insurrection to keep the heat off of his bungling of the pandemic.
