BRACK: What was the governor thinking in reopening  services?

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher  |  “What was Governor Kemp thinking?”

That’s what we are hearing from normal, everyday citizens, about Governor Brian Kemps’ surprise and sudden decision to open up some sectors of the economy. Many feel that the governor acted prematurely in making this move, especially when there is little evidence that Georgia has reached its peak in COVID-19 infections. The governor showed little evidence that the state has peaked in more virus cases.

BRACK: Major widespread shutdowns create another world for most 

By Elliott Brack  | In my lifetime, never has the United States experienced the widespread impact that the coronavirus is causing. Essentially much of our nation is at a near standstill as we seek to distance ourselves from one another.
