They are not singling out Tesla. Fremont is in Alameda county right in the middle of the SF Bay area. If one county starts getting a lot of infections, then it will take all the other counties down in a domino-like effect. Santa Clara county (across the bay) was already growing in numbers. So the whole Bay area was shut down. Tesla did not get an exemption. No one did.Some here claim that Tesla is listed as an essential company but that is not what I heard from the California authorities. They want Tesla shut down. They don't care about the people, the factory workers, only how much power they can have over others.
What your cardiologist didn't tell you is that COVID can have an unusual effect of causing clots to form in many people contracting it. As a result, lots of people are dying of heart attacks and strokes too. That's why heart attack frequency is up! They are usually COVID positive - when people bother to test them.Monday I had my quarterly cardiology testing and consult. My doctor told me they are very busy, not with COVID-19 but heart attacks up 3 times before this COVID-19 hysteria began. Mostly from people who lost their jobs, and then suffer anxiety triggered heat attacks.
This is one mean MF virus! You don't have to be extremely high risk to die of it. This is not an issue of what individuals want to do ... but rather what is best for the common good. Anyone we know can be an asymptomatic carrier and spread this disease like wildfire. It is definitely not like the flu!
Many epidemiologists have come out saying that the states that are reopening are really playing with danger. Models show that this can easily cause a 2nd (and possibly 3rd) wave that will be larger than the first. No good can come of it.
