My thoughts exactly.
If I understood correctly a friend's comments to me the other day, that friend expressed puzzlement as to why one Erie County town had previously reported a high number of cases while at the same time Lancaster's numbers were reportedly low, but currently, that the neighboring town's numbers have stabilized, while Lancaster's have increased.
What is that town doing right; what is Lancaster seemingly doing wrong?
Again considering my friend's information and profound insights described above, I ask, Comandante Ruffino's "Pronunciamentos" notwithstanding, "Do these 'ORDERS' serve a significant remedial or curative function, or do they only lend control over, and confusion to the minds of, an already concerned and anxious Lancaster public?
I totally agree.
The Town Council needs to be transparent and present us with all of the permissible facts.
Unless the information would unduly reveal some sort of classified security secrets, disingenuous protestations serving only to support a thin claim of "inciting" presumptive "panic," simply is not an acceptable excuse for withholding information so vital to the health and safety of the community.
In my opinion, every woman, man, and child capable of understanding its previous and current environment, knows that the previous "normality" has long-since departed our daily existence, and we simply reside in the surreal; nothing will surprise us any more.
In that regard, to the Town Council: As John Kennedy said when ordering Deputy CIA Director General Carter to provide full information during the very first EXCOM meeting of the Cuban Missile Crisis, "Okay, let's have it."
