I finally figured it out. The right wing is known as the "less humane" party than the "bleeding heart liberals." So they are unwilling to acknowledge the reality of the science, which is that the more we open up, especially with our irresponsible behavior as to masks and spacing, the more the deaths will ratchet up. Instead of acknowledging the difficult trade-off of a lot more lives in exchange for "opening up," the right just decides to pretend that the statistics are phony. Or they actually are stupid enough to believe the anti-science they read. I have noticed in my travels that it's a very organized game of disinformation...anybody notice the past 72 hours of the "CARES Act" discussion, the 2 ER doctors, the "nobel prize" guy?...all the same stuff out there to contravene science so the idiots don't feel bad when the deaths go up, up, up.
