Johnny:

Appreciate that you are a first responder, BUT

...if the illness spreads amongst backstretch workers (many of whom do not have
healthcare), who is going to take care of the horses?

I'm not saying that there will be a lot of deaths among the backstretch workers,
but if they are too sick to work?

The only thing all seem to agree on is that social distancing and some form of
quarantine will prevent many deaths.
