"If they close every door in this city, then I will close my doors," Spell told CNN on Tuesday. "But you can't say the retailers are essential but the church is not. That is a persecution of the faith."

A lot of states on that list where people have an irregular disposition when being told what to do. I'd say while SC is fairly in the middle of that, take a look at our projections here:
https://covid19.healthdata.org/projections

Where we have a project ICU bed shortage of 88 state wide. 1100 deaths which is less than twice what the flu does yearly. This is based on data that is slightly off as we have had bars/restaurant closures mandatory statewide for weeks, which is not reflected here.

Maybe I'm wrong but to me shutting everything down is an overreaction, for areas that aren't high population with no major outbreaks.

"Fire Fauci!"

Fauci and Gates have a disgusting history when it comes to the results of their vaccination programmes in Inda, Africa and elsewhere, Fauci shouldn't be anywhere near a position of power based on his record regarding vaccinations alone.
