“We are not going to be a vector of death and suffering,” said one Georgia gym owner

Movie theaters in Georgia can open on April 27. Photo: Erik S. Lesser/EPA-EFE/Shutterstock Gyms, bowling alleys, barbershops, and tattoo parlors will be allowed to open in Georgia on Friday, Governor Brian Kemp announced this week. Many won’t.

Here’s why nine Georgia business owners are declining to take Kemp up on his offer to reopen their doors: “Georgia is like a guinea pig … Nobody wants the economy to reopen more quickly than I do, but not at the cost of deaths of more people.” —Christian Favalli, owner, La Grotta restaurant “We don’t think [opening to in-person dining is] wise. If there’s not a vaccine, and there are not enough tests, anybody who comes in the restaurant may have the COVID-19 virus. There are too many instances you can’t control.” —Bill Mabry, owner, Mr. Everything Cafe

Georgia Gym Owner: “We are not going to be a vector of death and suffering.” GovKemp: 'One death vector, coming up.'

I kind of think this is what the governor is hoping for. Responsible people making the responsible decisions so he doesn’t have to.

'vector of death'... sounds like a 13th century death chamber.
