We've turned the lights off for communities across our country and around the world. Secondary impacts of the shutdowns threaten to become more serious than the virus itself. We combine data from a number of reputable sources to create a roadmap for turning the economic lights on in a safe and productive manner.
Find your stateOur plan begins local with the citizen and the city/county authorities, then state, then federal. We believe in empowering communities to own their future.
• Citizens see our data for their county and state and talk with their authorities, sharing the information to thousands so everyone is informed. Authorities respond, taking steps to free the people, using our data to back up their arguments.
• If the county is higher risk, local authorities issue guidelines encouraging the use of masks -by everyone who is higher risk (obesity related, diabetes, age over 65). Anyone who gets symptoms is also encouraged to wear masks or stay home until they recover.
• This will allow businesses to retain profitable practices by not reducing customer capacity, such as reducing tables at a restaurant or the capacity of a store which would break the profitability of the business. The data is clear – given the financial hardship, businesses need a permissive environment to prevent further financial ruin.
• Understand your current chances of catching COVID-19.
• Shift behavior to reduce your chance of infection
• Know what to do if you are higher risk.
• See whether you might already have the virus.
