This was a very good and wise decision in my opinion.

It's good to see there are responsible politicians out there that care about people.

Any large gathering is dangerous. 

None of us are happy about the disruption, hardship and death COVID has imposed on our lives.

It is what it is.

Let's all get broad shoulders and fight this together.

That's so true and our governor (Beshear) falls into that category. However, this was not a decision made by a politician. This was a decision made by Churchill Downs. The following is from a Courier-Journal story -

A person close to Churchill Downs told The Courier Journal the decision to not allow fans was not forced upon the track by Beshear, but made by themselves after lengthy considerations about public health. A Churchill Downs official told Beshear of their decision earlier this week.

The also stated they realized the city of Louisville will be impacted economically but they believed, "the safety of our guests, the community, our employees is the No. 1 priority." 

I agree 100%.

(Jennifer you always seem to me to be such a fare  and honest on your comments.) Thank You. 

This is my Roll  Call. Tried many times to writ you an update. My family and friends are safe / well. The Covid 19  has knocked me out of my shoes .I wake up  and hope it is all a dream., I worked in the medical field and know to much to stop the worry. Sometimes I can't even play games. Usually get into MC once a day to gift. Most of the time I am in my room reading. If you look up at the castle on the left the  room with the round window that's where I will be. with my  books, 2 cats  and TOAD/Otter/MOUSE to keep me company, I will wave if I see you.  ROSALIE

I'm soooo happy to live in WA State . . . but I wonder if DeJoy will TRY to retaliate somehow:

Postal workers in Washington State have reinstalled high-speed mail sorting machines—dismantled after controversial orders from the U.S. Postal Service— despite USPS orders not to put machines back in use.

Good for them ... and the residents of the state of Washington!

It's a sad state of affairs when the people have no choice but to bypass the government to take care of themselves.

People should have stopped listening to this administration months ago.

I just don't see the logic:

The new policy states that so-called laboratory-developed tests will no longer require F.D.A. authorization.

Here's the article:

Just read the headline again. There's a one-word clue in there which explains why you don't see the logic or why there isn't any logic to the story. LOL

And they wonder why people don't want to take the vaccine when available.....................

And neither do I.

I'd rather stay home. There is no way in this universe that I would take a vaccine that hasn't gone through proper Stage 3 trials.

Even then I might be wary.
