NEW: Fauci warns reopening states: “You can't just leap over things” https://t.co/KGUqujeKe2

This reminded me of the old nursery rhyme:
"Jack be nimble,
Jack be quick.
Jack jump over
the candlestick."
It comes from, as I understand it, a game where one jumps over a lit candle placed on the floor. If you clear it and it stays lit, that means there is a good year ahead. If you blow it out, the year will be bad. And if you burn your silly self, what were you even doing jumping over a lit candle in your condition, you daft fool!
The moral being, don't jump until you're perfectly ready.
