After months of quarantine for coronavirus, is it time to finally re-open the economy? Should the quarantine be over? Did we really need to all be quarantined to this extent in the first place, or has it at least gone on too long? Moreover, are those who are knowingly violating the quarantine, such as InfoWars' Owen Shroyer,[1] or a Canadian man who attempted to feed the homeless,[2] in the right?
Millions of people across the world have died from this disease. Simultaneously, millions of people have been laid off or lost their jobs due to the mass quarantine. Should we resume business, now or soon? Or is it best to wait this out until the death toll drops to zero?
Interestingly, the conservative Premier of Ontario Doug Ford has severely criticized the anti-quarantine protesters.[3] Might be something to keep in mind.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] [[User talk:{{{1}}}|(talk)]]
