- Judge in restaurant lawsuit against LA County just said, “The average healthy American is not seriously at risk of dying” that the county has “seized on a straw”...
- Replying to @janewellsThe judge recognizes the hospitalization crisis, but says the evidence shows outdoor dining is “moderate risk at best” which can be mitigated, and the ban is a symbolic gestures which does not take into consideration the economic pain, etc, that it causes.
- Replying to @janewellsThe judge: “One of the problems...government agencies and the media are generating fear...and the evidence shows that healthy Americans need not fear.”
- Replying to @janewells...in banning outdoor dining “But it shows we’re doing something...but you can’t do it without doing a risk-benefit analysis.”
- Replying to @janewellsJudge is quote public health statute in saying health department can’t do whatever it wants regardless of the cost of those restrictions.
- Replying to @janewellsThe judge is very heated. County is arguing it is obligated to keep the ban in effect as long as state restrictions are in effect. Judge says those are two different things.
- Replying to @janewells“You did not have to issue an order, you could’ve allowed the state to issue an order, but when you do issue an order, you have to follow the law.”
- Replying to @janewellsCounty is arguing analysis is not legally necessary. “I don’t think any other court in the country has said that.”
