    Based on this model, what death count do you favor vs jobs lost. The U of Penn used Johns Hopkins data for the model. I am guessing most will go for the 350,000 deaths to minimize the number of jobs lost.

    The reopening is still voluntary, not everyone is going for it and some places are still going to be shut down.
