But theren lies the problem, the science isn't in agreement; different states are doing different things, based on (they say) the science. Ohio, with the very visible Dr. Acton, was one of the first to lock down, but now is pretty much open. Obviously, living arrangements, population density and other factors can affect things, but Ohio neighbors Michigan. Was Ohio's science better? I do know that the Ohio governor's daughter, Alice DeWine, ran for his old prosecutor job in his home county, spent million$, and still lost by a good margin. It would be ignorant to think that Mike DeWine didn't factor his daughter's electoral failure in transitive terms the next time he dealt with Dr. Acton on policy; politicians can't just dump their programming. Whitmer wants to move higher in her party, so believing her decisions are based on science and not put through her own political calculation machine is naive.
