I don't know why the world doesn't listen to my expert advice on cutting confirmed cases to zero... Stop testing for it.... sure actual and suspected cases probably still both go up, but not confirmed cases

Las Vegas-Clark County libraries closed due to coronavirus

Of all the things that have closed, this really rates low on the scale of relative impact. People can read books online or their kindles, etc. Just sayin...
