#WR: When U.S. economy will be reopening? After Easter, this is crucial question. It is not possible to stop the #economy for long time. @WSJ posted a series of stories showing how South Korea, China, Japan managed it. Mr. Trump says federal government will start it. #COVID19 #US

 

 

#WR: From @WSJ to reread: “Governors across the U.S. said they plan to coordinate regional efforts to gradually reopen businesses and ease social-distancing guidelines, even as President Trump said he had the ultimate authority to restart the economy.” #COVID19 #ReopenAmericaNow

 

 

#WR: From @WSJ: "The governors of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Rhode Island said they were creating a working group of public health, economic and government officials from each state to develop a regional plan." #ReopenAmericaNow

 

 

Despite the COVID-19 crisis continues, government authorities and companies are beginning to think the economy of the country cannot stopped for long time. This was my comment posted in the blog sector of one of the @WSJ stories:

 

"The reopening of businesses in the COVID-19 era requests new procedures and techniques to avoid contagion. The implementation of the new systems has a high cost. Probably, the small businesses that cannot afford them will collapse."

Other blogger answered me that the only important initiative is the recommendation of "stay-at-home" when an employee is sick. Due to I disagree with his opinion, this was my answer also in the blog sector of @WSJ:

"Companies have to implement more advanced techniques to generate healthy and productive environment of work.  The recommendation of "to stay home" is not enough. (And this recommendation can be an excuse also for the employees who don't like to work hard. Koreans, Japanese and the people of Singapore don't move their countries with employees that nearly every day are sick.)"
