end government overreach NOW
 

End this contrived Health Emergancy now. The latest CDC numbers now place two other illnesses (phenumonia, influenza) numbers with COVID 19 keeping COVID 19 just above the "pandemic" threshold. Current Virginia stats indicate the majority of deaths are in nursing homes not in the general population. Keeping in mind that Virginia reporting of COVID 19 has not been done correctly and gives an illusion of increasing cases were it is not accurate.  Locking down the state, ruining the economy, destroying citizens ability to work & worship,  and enjoy life has to end now. Since the state & local governments are allowing large groups of people to protest (no masks or social distancing) and riot with inpunity then the average citizen should be allowed back to their normal life.  Since the Gov. himself was willing to walk around groups of ciitizens without a mask or social distancing is a good indication this is more about government over reach & control then about any health emergancy.
