It's unthinkable, Anderson. I was on a phone call with about 200-plus mayors two weeks ago, as we had already taken 60 percent of our actions, and we are on the verge of - of going all the way.
Well we take our advice from doctors, not politicians, not close friends, and not just on instinct, but listening to public health professionals and that was the clear advice.
I think it's so important for mayors, for politicians, to listen to the doctors.
My advice for the President, for Congress, is don't wait for this to just be dispersed to 50 states and tens of thousands of cities. Come up with some of these standards right now.
