1. I haven't trusted a number from the Reynolds office for a year.

About the time she decided we were going to open back up and it seemed like the stats were made to look like it could be done.

2. Good to know I'm not alone thinking that.

3. Agreed.

I know someone who works in nursing homes. In his experience, he also thinks they have been under-reporting.

4. I think she is more interested in her reputation than in our knowledge of situations.

I haven't trusted her since she took control. I thought Braindead was bad, but at least you had some idea of what he would do. She is following Trump too closely...even after he's the other guy. There's probably something missing to the story beyond facts.
