Hogan to lift some coronavirus restrictions, but Baltimore mayor says local officials may move more slowly

Gov. Larry Hogan is expected to announce Wednesday the relaxing of some restrictions on business and gatherings as hospitalizations due to the coronavirus pandemic have reached a plateau, but Baltimore Mayor Bernard C. “Jack” Young said local officials don’t yet feel comfortable reopening.

As part of his three-stage plan to reopen the economy, Hogan last week began to loosen some restrictions, including permitting elective medical procedures and recreational activities such as boating and golfing.

The next steps in the first stage of the governor’s reopening plan include reopening certain small businesses, curbside services, limited-attendance outdoor religious services, limited outdoor fitness classes and car washes. A spokesman for Hogan would not confirm Tuesday what activities will be relaxed next.

At a news conference Tuesday, Young said not all county executives “feel comfortable” yet with reopening.

In Baltimore gang will be allowed to gather in groups of 24, they can mug and murder only on odd number days. Rapes can only happen between the hours of 9:00 pm thru 4:00am Every Monday, Wednesday, and full weekends.
Regular people can't go to work or go out to eat at a sit-down resturant, but can go and by Lotto tickets and Churches Chicken.

It's a democrat thing. Democrats could give 2 hoots about public health. For example the Baltimore mayor thinks it's perfectly acceptable that little black children have to play in rat %hit and pi%%. What they care about is getting federal funds so they can steal it. When the President declared a national emergency all any democrat politician heard was Gravy Train

Northwest Woodsman: Hasn’t there been more deaths in Baltimore attributed to full metal jacket lead poisoning than from the Whu Flu?
I think the mayor and governor should declare that everyone should wear a ballistic protective vest. At least a level III.

Northwest Woodsman: 8:45, that is one of the best comments I have read. Love the sarcastic humor! Thanks for posting. I’m going to cut and paste it and send it to some of my like minded friends.
