When the sun comes out, so do the calls for cities and their beaches to open. Memorial Day is quickly approach and people have grown tired of being stuck at home. But is there a risk in reducing stay at home orders?
Gov Phil Murphy, is leading the way in the Northeast, parks and golf courses have reopened with guidelines, nonessential retail businesses can offer curbside service starting Monday morning, beaches can be open this summer, and charted fishing and boat rentals resumed this morning.
Gov. Cuomo is right when he says the New Yorkers will flock to the Jersey Shore if NY beaches remain closed. So, Gov.’s hands are being forced in a high stakes game of Russian Roulette.
I hope that things go well and that people respect all of guidelines for social distancing. If we see an increase in the infection rate, we can only blame ourselves for not listening to Dr. Fauci and the other medical experts.
