Univ. Kentucky social distancing study

Here's a news report on a new study of social distancing results. There is a link in the article to the report.

https://www.kentucky.com/article2423...i84uid6B-Z4y_g

It's a study by a Free Enterprise group funded by the Koch brothers. They reached the conclusion, surprising themselves, that the government needed to pay unemployment and that the social distancing worked.

The Koch brothers are complicated. They could be funding anti-shutdown protesters out of a political pocket while sponsoring NOVA and studies like this out of an educational pocket..
