So he says 40-80 percent are going to get this regardless, and it might be for a couple months rather than a few weeks, and it still appears he is going to do this anyway?   First of all, how do you throw out completely random numbers like that, and if you actually believe them, why would you make this move --  for the remaining 20 percent?

I think the MN gov't is using a model that was developed by the U to help make the decisions.

Basically they are buying time to build up the resources.  

I'd rather have him over Dayton, easy.

MN will stay at home for two weeks from Friday March 27th to April 10.

Then three more weeks of social distancing

Then physical distancing for the vulnerable. 

Schools closed until May 4th (distance learning)

Bars and Restaurants closed until May 1st.

I was thinking the same thing a couple days ago.

I really hope those dates hold though I'm not feeling too optimistic.  I know my daughter would like to get back to school to see her teacher and friends before the school year ends.

These aren't random numbers.  He is relying on Michael Osterholm and his infectious disease group at the UM. 

These are the exact numbers that Osterholm has been stating since this thing broke.

Walz is getting praise for consulting with all of the previous MN governors who are still living as this goes along.  One could question the value of getting Jesse's opinion (and maybe Dayton's) but that's another story.

MN had 150000 citizens apply for unemployment 3/16- 3/23. 

10x of all claims in February.

I'm going to look for the slide where that was mentioned, I could have misread it.

I'm hoping there is some kind of framework like that even if it has to be modified as we go along.

But, hey, those of you with declining and/or disappearing paychecks, please support your local bars and restaurants by ordering plenty of take out food and beverages.

Yes they were, DJI then moved up and then down some, finished + 495 for the day. 
Some rough days ahead?

If the Dow futures are off in a positive fashion like today most days I think most will take that.
