Dear Hobie, As promised, I have been working on a campaign over the past month with the non-profit, 501c4 organization Stand for Health Freedom I co-founded, to help empower citizens with a voice and bring rationality back into the present nationwide COVID-19 lockdown situation that is now live here and ready for you to use! We surveyed you, and received hundreds of responses. In summary, our collective following is strongly in favor of sending the message to elected officials and key decision-makers that government orders restricting healthy citizens and keeping nonessential businesses closed are causing widespread emotional, physical and financial devastation -- far more harmful than the risk of COVID-19 itself. And that outcomes will continue to worsen, unless we use reopen our communities, letting lawful, healthy citizens go back to work, school, church, and social gatherings. If this indeed resonates with you, we've created a powerful campaign and action for you that you can engage in only a few clicks here NOW, enabling you to email your major and governor your concerns!

OUR STAND Governors and mayors across the country have taken unprecedented action by restricting the movement of healthy individuals, closing places of worship and public spaces, and interfering with business by ordering them to close their doors. There is a growing realization that government-imposed orders intended to contain the spread of the coronavirus are creating widespread devastation. One in four Americans has lost either part or all of their income since the end of March, and the GDP has fallen by 24 percent. US data shows that the case fatality rate might be as low as 0.1% — in other words, akin to the mortality rate of a severe seasonal flu. Ninety percent of those who are severely affected have an underlying health condition. Cases in which COVID-19 are merely suspected to be a cause of death are being recorded as official COVID-19 deaths. Americans are wondering how long they will be required to comply with orders that force healthy individuals to indefinitely stay at home and businesses deemed as “non-essential” to stay closed. Individuals are capable of taking precautions to avoid COVID-19. Those who are vulnerable or who have COVID-19 should stay home, but healthy individuals need to return to work so that our jobs, our economy and our well-being are not destroyed. It’s time to stand and request commonsense policies that protect the vulnerable while restoring individuals’ livelihoods and mitigating the repercussions of an indefinite shutdown. Email your governor and mayor NOW to urge them to lift the stay-at-home orders for healthy individuals. Please send YOUR letter to your governor and mayor here today and take a stand with us!
