💾 Storage Just Got Serious — SAN Market to hit $32.5B by 2034, up from $19.4B in 2024 (5.3% CAGR 🔗)

Storage Area Network (SAN) is a high-speed network that provides access to consolidated block-level storage, allowing multiple servers to connect to and use shared storage resources efficiently. SANs are designed for high availability, performance, and scalability, making them ideal for enterprise environments with large volumes of data and critical applications. They help centralize storage management, improve backup and disaster recovery processes, and minimize downtime.

By separating storage from the local environment, SANs increase flexibility and enable better resource utilization. These systems support high-throughput applications such as databases, virtual machines, and analytics platforms. As organizations continue to scale and transition to hybrid and multi-cloud architectures, SAN solutions are evolving with features like NVMe over Fabrics, software-defined storage, and enhanced automation. Additionally, SANs play a crucial role in cybersecurity and compliance by providing secure access controls, encryption, and audit trails. In the age of big data and digital transformation, SAN technology remains a vital backbone for enterprise storage strategies, ensuring data is always available, protected, and accessible.

Philadelphia medical jet crash

What caused it | New NTSB video

Jeff Ostroff thoroughly analyzes the crash of the medical jet, a Learjet 55 in Philadelphia at 6:07 PM 31 January 2025, offering several probable causes and his choice for the most likely root cause of this plane crash. Also included is some newly released NTSB video from the crash scene in Philly.

The NTSB is on scene investigating a Learjet 55 (MTS056) Medevac crash into a commercial and residential area shortly after departure from Northeast Philadelphia Airport at 6:06 p.m. ET on 31 January 2025.

NTSB investigators are on scene documenting the wreckage, collecting evidence and interviewing witnesses. All aspects of this incident remain under investigation.

A preliminary report is expected within 30 days from the date of the accident. The preliminary report will contain factual information gathered during the initial phase of the investigation. A probable cause of the crash and any contributing factors will come in the final report, which is expected in 12 to 24 months.

NTSB investigators have recovered the cockpit voice recorder (CVR) of the Learjet 55 that crashed on 31 January in Philadelphia. The CVR was located at the site of initial impact, at a depth of 8 feet.​ NTSB investigators also recovered the airplane's enhanced ground proximity warning system (EGPWS), which could also contain flight data. Both components will be sent to the NTSB Vehicle Recorders Laboratory in Washington, DC for evaluation.

NTSB investigators have recovered both engines. Wreckage recovery continues. All of the wreckage will be sent to a secure location in Delaware for further examination.

NTSB investigators have obtained surveillance videos of the crash and numerous witness statements

Impact of COVID-19 on Construction Industry Market is Growing Exponentially in Order to Gain More Demand by 2024

The report "Impact of COVID-19 on Construction Industry Market" by Type (Residential, Non-Residential, and Heavy & Civil Engineering) and Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, South America) - Global Forecast to 2024" The global construction market size is declined from USD 11,217.4 billion in 2019 to USD 10,741.2 billion in 2020. However, the industry is showing signs of recovery since the beginning of 2021 and is expected to reach a market size of USD 13,572.4 billion in 2024, projecting a CAGR of 6.0% between 2020 and 2024. The construction industry is declined in 2020 due to frequent lockdowns, stringent government regulations and supply chain disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Over the past years, companies have strengthened their position in the global construction industry by adopting expansions, partnerships, agreements, new product/technology launches, joint ventures, contracts, and mergers & acquisitions. However, due to the lockdown announced by several countries in 2020, the demand for materials and equipment in the construction sector has declined sharply.

For instance, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused contractors to pivot to new ways of working on ongoing projects. The renovation work of the University of Delaware’s Worrilow Hall academic building carried out by Skanska was also initially impacted by COVID-19. The company authorities had to rethink on their project plans as materials and workers became scarce. In addition, there was a limit on travel, which made some team members unable to visit the job site. Apart from this, the government and CDC orders mandated new requirements for job site cleanliness. The above-mentioned factors were seriously taken into consideration by the company. Skanska has been following city and state guidelines along with university rules and regulations and working closely and collaboratively with its clients and partners. As a result, the renovation activity of the Worrilow Hall continued during the lockdown, and the Hall is set to reopen in the next few months. Despite all the preventive measures, the company faces delays in the manufacturing and delivery of equipment and materials, and there was a reduction in the workforce in the initial stages of the COVID-19 outbreak. However, working collaboratively with the university and subcontractors, the company split the workforce into a morning shift and an afternoon shift to allow for better social distancing.

The major manufacturers profiled in this report include Bechtel Group (US), Balfour Beatty (UK), Grupo ACS (Spain), China State Construction Engineering Corporation Limited (China), L&T Construction (India), PCL Construction Enterprises (Canada), and Skanska Construction (Sweden). The construction business of these companies is severely affected due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Disruption in the supply chain has compelled the companies to operate in partial capacities.

International/General News

Please stop buying toilet paper unless you are actively out of toilet paper. My butt thanks you in advance.

Vaccine testing began today in Seattle, Washington. This is the first phase of vaccine testing, where healthy volunteers take the vaccine to make sure it is safe.

The World Health Organization will stop separating Chinese cases as today is the first day that cases outside China outstripped cases inside China

France is now on lockdown

We are seeing the difference that social distancing can make in this epidemic: look at the difference between European countries that have and have not shut down.

Virology Corner

Today’s topic is recovery from COVID-19: how do we know that you’re recovered and that you’re no longer shedding the virus?

We know from Chinese studies that in people who recover clinically (i.e. when they stop feeling like death’s ass) they can shed virus for up to 20 days from the onset of symptoms. People who die shed virus until after they die.

Fortunately, we have a way of testing for active virus shedding: the same tests we use to detect viral genes at the start of an infection work to show that you are clear of infection!

This is super useful to know because we do not always test for cure in infectious diseases - for example, we don’t usually test flu patients for cure.

It’s pretty clear that when people have two negative tests separated by 24 hours, they are considered “recovered”. That’s the definition the WHO uses, and the one I will use here unless I specify otherwise.

Question Tuesday

Today’s question comes from @dasyuridae: “does the UK’s response make sense?”

HELL NO it does not

That’s the short answer

The long answer is that herd immunity works as a prevention strategy in certain types of infections, and this is not yet that kind of pandemic.

We use herd immunity to prevent against diseases when we have a vaccine for them. By immunizing everyone who can be immunized, we prevent those who cannot be immunized from getting and/or spreading the disease. This is essential to protecting people from things like measles and the flu.

If humans are the only host for a particular virus, we can even use herd immunity to totally delete the disease from planet earth. Ask smallpox. Oh wait. You can’t. We deleted it. (except for the highly secure samples in Russia and the USA, shh)

COVID-19 likely has a reservoir in animals so we can’t delete it, but once we have a vaccine, herd immunity will be awesome for preventing further outbreaks.

To have herd immunity now, likely upwards of 90% of the UK would need to get the virus and recover, thereby developing immunity. That is a bad idea because no health system can handle that.

A better way to do this is what most other countries are doing, mitigating spread by isolating affected people, offering lots of testing, and quarantining areas with lots of asymptomatic spread.

In conclusion, fuck Boris Johnson, he doesn’t understand how epidemiology works and that’s gonna hurt/kill a lot of people.

I have two elderly grandparents in the UK. Fuck Boris.

If you have questions, ask them and they’ll appear here in the next issue of corona extra!

Boris is still a stupid shit, surprise surprise.

Fuck Boris

He’s ~encouraging~ people to stay home, which is kind of laughable given the severity of the pandemic and how strict other countries are having to be

US in general: updated 3/16 at 4 pm local time (EST for CDC numbers)

3,487 total cases, 1,858 new with 46 states and DC reporting cases.

This is the start of the explosion of cases I’ve been expecting because of increased testing. This is a good sign that we’re catching more cases. It also indicates that there’s been spread going on for a while.

68 deaths, 27 new (1.95% mortality rate)

53 jurisdictions are reporting cases: 49 states, DC, Puerto Rico, Guam, and US Virgin Islands

Only West Virginia continues to not have cases. Impressive.

CDC is now recommending all in person gatherings with more than 50 people be canceled for the next 8 weeks. This sucks for me personally and probably a lot of you all too. Hang in there.

Trump told states that they should “try to get” ventilators and other critical supplies themselves. Fuck him too.

Not that it’s not the states’ jobs too, but also the federal aid and stockpile is like, a huge thing in disaster response (wait, oops, Trump cut that too)

Today’s Hot Tips

Social distancing can be really crappy for people who are prone to feeling isolated. Try to schedule time to hang out virtually, especially if you’re stuck at home alone. I highly recommend the Jackbox party games to stream over Discord, or tabletop RPGs played through a service like Roll20. My friends and I have been doing all these things and it’s helping a lot!

If you have a favorite quarantine activity, let me know and I can include it in the next issue!

Everyone knows that sex is an option, there’s gonna be a lot of November, December, & January babies

That said, make sure your quarantine supplies include contraception and condoms and stuff. If you have a uterus, you can buy emergency contraception (plan B) online and it’s real handy to have around in a situation like this.

Hand washing is so hot right now

Optimal Spacing of the Wolfcamp in the Delaware Basin

Authored   by  Ahmed Alzahabi

Abstract

Proper well spacing for horizontal wells is one of the missing pieces for the Delaware Basin development in the Wolfcamp Formation. In the Wolfcamp formation in the Delaware Basin, well spacing varies with formation characteristics (rock and fluid) across the Basin. Finding the spacing intervals between horizontal wells right is crucial to maximizing productivity and estimated ultimate recovery (EUR) while avoiding detrimental frac hits and cross-well pressure and fluid interference during stimulation and production.

Along with the various parameters affecting development, well patterns and completion methodologies are having the highest impact. Both parameters show a significant impact on the drainage area of wells and may in turn affect optimal spacing between the wells. The model outcomes are expected to improve recovery efficiency, oil production, and minimize detrimental frac hits and cross-well pressure and fluid interference during stimulation and production. A pool of private production and spacing data were analyzed in conjunction with data analytics. This step led to a newly developed model to optimize well spacing.

The work may lead to an optimal spacing for the stacked Delaware Basin, and contribute to a better understanding of infill Wolfcamp child wells relative their offset parent wells. Our model within the Wolfcamp may be applied to various sections and formations across the Permian Basin. Current workflows and spacing advisors require use of numerical reservoir simulation and fracture simulation. Drainage area, spacing, reserves, recovery factors, and fracture height and width are the main unknown variables in unconventional plays. Application of data analytics with production, spacing, life of the well on production, and completion data is anticipated to resolve some of these issues.

Introduction

The paper is to develop a thorough understanding of proper well spacing and to propose a methodology for optimization in tight rocks. Production well interference due to fracture driven interaction (FDIs) may occur between child and parent wells especially if the distance between the wells is narrow. This interference must be avoided to reduce the significant negative impact on productivity and estimated ultimate recovery (EUR) of the producing wells. The impact of these interactions is sophisticated and requires numerical modeling to account for fracture propagation and depletion effects due to varied spacing sets (Kan et al. 2019). Examining numerous cases of Improper spacing has caused well interference and FDIs in horizontal wells in the Wolfcamp section in both the Delaware and Midland basins. Nearly 10% of these cases have resulted in critical productivity loss.

The EUR is certainly a function of many parameters including fracture and well spacings. These variables include but are not limited to [1]: Completion style (Open hole, cased hole, etc.);In-situ stresses and stress regimes, and faulting ; Wellbore lateral length and number; Fracturing fluid and proppant size, concentration, and type; Fracture job design parameters (i.e. injection rate, volume, rheology, additives, fracture conductivity, leak coefficient); Formation characteristics and rock mechanical properties (i.e. permeability, porosity, formation density, initial reservoir pressure, Young’s Modulus, Poisson’s ratio, Biot’s constant); Reservoir fluid properties; Decline rate of wells, which is dependent on the depletion strategy.

limited to [1]: Completion style (Open hole, cased hole, etc.);In-situ stresses and stress regimes, and faulting ; Wellbore lateral length and number; Fracturing fluid and proppant size, concentration, and type; Fracture job design parameters (i.e. injection rate, volume, rheology, additives, fracture conductivity, leak coefficient); Formation characteristics and rock mechanical properties (i.e. permeability, porosity, formation density, initial reservoir pressure, Young’s Modulus, Poisson’s ratio, Biot’s constant); Reservoir fluid properties; Decline rate of wells, which is dependent on the depletion strategy.

A narrative about the Delaware Basin development warrants the following questions:

1. What is the minimum and maximum spacing between horizontal wells?

2. What is the optimum number of wells per section to avoid FDI?

3. Does spacing affect horizontal well EUR?

Increasing spacing between parent and child wells can improve EURs per well to a point, but on the other hand, production per section/lease will decrease as fewer wells are drilled to drain the section, potentially leaving the reservoir volume under stimulated.

Since the shift from vertical to horizontal wells, more than 3,000 horizontal wells have been drilled and completed in the Midland Basin, Wolfcamp section. This is in addition to more than 1400 wells in the Delaware Basin, Wolfcamp Formation [3].

Proper well spacing is critical for successful development of unconventional resources. Numerous studies have been conducted on spacing of horizontal wells in unconventional reservoirs [1,4- 23].

This paper introduces a new model as an attempt to better understand spacing effectiveness. The model can be used to quickly predict the optimum spacing of horizontal wells in the Permian Basin, Wolfcamp Formations. In developing the model, we considered 201 horizontal wells, obtained from private parties for the Permian Basin, Wolfcamp A through D.

To predict spacing (the dependent variable) in that model, the following pool of independent (or input) variables was considered: County, depth, oil EUR, IP 30 oil, IP 60 oil, volume of the injected fluid in bbl., gas EUR, IP 30 gas, IP 60 gas, GOR, gas yield, well number of days in production, number of pounds of proppant, BOE per well, cumulative oil, cumulative gas, TVD (True vertical depth), injected fluid in gal/ft, IP 180 oil. The completion data ranges, obtained from private sources, to develop the model are summarized in Table 1. The spacing model introduced correlates the spacing variable Rectangular Overlap Area (ROA) to the wells EUR.

We used analytics (Scatter-diagram smoothing) to develop a relationship between two dependent variables EUR and IP over 150 days and Rate of overlap (See Eqs. 1 through 5, Appendix A) among laterals. The study demonstrates the effect of stacked reservoirs on EUR and IP 150 oil. The interactions can help us understand the relationship between the planning of older and newer wells.

Recent Advancements in Well Spacing

There is no simple formula to guide proport well spacing in the Permian Basin. Defeu et al. [24], considering data from Wolfcamp shale play in the Delaware Basin, one study found that when a child well was drilled within 1,000 feet of an older well, the parent outperformed the new child by 66%. When the comparison was adjusted for high-intensity completions with higher fluid and proppant volumes, 79% of older Wolfcamp wells performed better than offset child wells. If well density or lateral spacing is too tight, it could lead to negative well interference issues between neighboring laterals from fracture-driven interactions (FDIs), or frac hits, which could degrade the productivity and recovery factors of parent and infill wells.

It is well known in the industry that an increase in well spacing lowers the wells EUR [24]. The wider the spacing the higher the EUR per well to a point, but production per section (lease) drops as fewer wells are drilled to drain the section.

Estimated ultimate recovery of wells (EUR) usually increases with the increase in number of stages. As the number of fracture stages increases, the efficiency of incremental stages decreases in the Bakken shale Formation [25]. Beyond a certain number, therefore, the incremental cost would exceed the incremental benefits.

A study by Hart Energy and ENVERUS on the Wolfcamp A, shows multiple spacing tests done by operators in the DOMINATOR area in Lea County, New Mexico. Despite the risks associated with the tight spacings (<200 ft) used in the project, more testing (numerically and analytically) is needed to push the boundaries of spacings to determine with an optimum range (Figure 3). Shows the effect of Wolfcamp-A linear spacing on productivity. The figure demonstrates the recommended range of 200-800 ft.

A study done by Hart Energy on 180 horizontal wells in the Eagle Ford shale play used a geospatial approach to estimate well spacing rather than measuring interwall footage. The pseudo-drainage area is calculated using vector geometry algorithms (Figure 4). Wells with tighter spacing showed poorer performance (well profile). On the other hand, wells with 200-400 acres spacing are the best performing wells. In this slice of the Eagle Ford shale, well spacing seems to have an important effect on performance, particularly when wells have less than 200 acres (drainage area) available to drain. The modeling of three wells from East Texas, with spacing between the middle and two offset laterals increasing from 1000 to 2500 ft in 500-ft increments, showed that the highest NPVs are correlated to a lateral stage spacing between 360 and 385 ft [26].

Table 2 demonstrates variations in well spacing as practiced by many operators in various basins across North America. The variation of spacing is used in shales of Permian Wolfcamp, Marcellus, Bakken, Eagle Ford and Anadarko Woodford.

New Analytical Workflow

The workflow involves two main stages

• A global model that predicts EURs and initial production for Delaware Basin Wolfcamp wells for the first 150 days of using nonparametric regression and scatter diagram smoothing (Hastie et al. 2015); and

• Testing of the model using both in-sample test data and publicly available Wolfcamp data.

A pool of independent (input) variables from the well dataset was analyzed to develop the model and predict optimal spacing (the dependent variable). Some of the variables considered were oil and gas EUR, initial and cumulative oil and gas production, gasto- oil ratios, pounds of proppant, true vertical depth, injected fluid volume, etc. The spacing model correlates the spacing variable “rectangular overlap area” (ROA) to the well EUR and IPs. While we fitted a global model to the output, we only report the results of the model for ROA in this paper.

Rectangular Overlap Area (ROA)

A software was used to calculate the stacked spacings. Well locations and Total Vertical Depth (TVD), and min and max values of Xf and Hf were used to determine ROA. Eqs. 1 through 5 and Figures B1 and B2 in the Appendix A illustrate spacing calculations. Figure 5 shows that EUR declines with the increase of overlap between horizontal wells due to interference. There is a linear relationship initially between EUR and overlap for an overall range of 0-50 %, then decreases sharply due to increase in well communications.

UR and cumulative IP regression model

Figures 6 and 7 show log-scale scatterplots of ROA vs. EUR and IP OIL (Initial Production of Oil for 150 days), smoothed via the LOESS (locally estimated scatterplot smoothing) algorithm of Cleveland [27]. Figure 8 is similar, except the y-axis is the average of EUR and IP OIL. These plots suggest that maximum values for both ROA and IP OIL are obtained when log (ROA) is approximately 12.5, which implies an optimum ROA of approximately exp (12.5) = 268,337 ft2. The results show a good correlative fit (95% confidence interval) between 150-day oil IP and EUR, and at least in this area of the Delaware Basin, the relationship between spacing (ROA) and well performance is clear [28-35].

Conclusion

The main goal of the paper was to introduce a model to correlate well-spacing variable with two production metrics. We used the available pool of data of a total of 200 horizontal wells (privately owned) in the Wolfcamp to guide developing the model. Our study concludes the following.

Maximum values for both EUR and IP OIL are obtained when log (ROA) is approximately 12.5, which implies an optimum ROA of approximately exp (12.5) = 268,337 ft2.

EUR drops with the increase in overlap between horizontal wells due to interference. EUR shows a linear relationship initially for an overall range of 0-50 %, then decreases sharply due to increase in the communications.

The work suggests the higher the overlap (ROA>60%) between wells, the lower expected IP for 150 days and EUR from the well. This leads to a spacing of 10 acres. This leads to a development spacing of 10 acres, This leads to linear spacing between laterals of 1580 feet.

The results show a good correlative fit (95% confidence interval) between 150-day oil IP and EUR, and at least in this area of the Delaware Basin, the relationship between spacing (ROA) and well performance is clear.

Governors, White House Race to Reopen America

An arms race of sorts has emerged between red states and blue states to reopen America, with Democrat and Republican governors developing rivaling plans to lead their states out of the darkness of the coronavirus crisis while the White House’s Coronavirus Task Force and President Donald Trump’s ultimate decision looms large over the country. Hundreds of millions of Americans are under some variation of stay-at-home orders in every state in the union, with all 50 states also having active disaster declarations—the first time such a crisis has ever swept the nation in her nearly 250-year history. The president has called the decision to reopen America for business the biggest he will ever make in his presidency, and his life, and is expected to roll out a new task force from the White House on Tuesday to detail his plans and lead the effort from Washington. The president has also said it is his decision—and his alone—to make, arguing Monday that he has the authority as the nation’s commander-in-chief to override any governors or local officials nationwide who may get in his way. That being said, while some Democrat governors have expressed unease with moving too quickly—in other words, they want to go on their own timetable, not Trump’s—there is an emerging competition between various governors nationwide to see who can get there first safely for the people of their state. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican, is eyeing a plan rollout as early as this week to begin opening parts of his state back up for commerce. During an interview on Sean Hannity’s program on Fox News on Monday evening, Abbott reiterated the need to get Texas back to work as early as this week—and definitely ahead of the previous schedule of May 1. “We want to open. Texans love to work. Texans are dying to get back to work,” Abbott said during the Hannity interview. “We want them to get back to work, but we have to do so in a very safe way so that we don’t regenerate the spread of the coronavirus in the state of Texas. But we’re working on strategis as we speak with medical experts and business leaders to find the right strategy so we can unleash our economy.” He added that he believes Texas—and many other states—can reopen well before May 1. “I think most states can reopen even sooner than later. We don’t have to wait until May 1,” Abbott said. The White House, sources familiar with the matter told Breitbart News, has a list of approximately 20 states they intend to begin the reopening process in as soon as potentially later this week but definitely before the end of April. The virus, public health and federal officials admit, has not lived up to the dire predictions that doomsday models had originally forecast. The vaunted Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) model from the University of Washington has been notoriously wrong, predicting first anywhere from 100,000 to 240,000 dead Americans, then dropping that several times in subsequent weeks down to 93,000, then 81,000, then down to 61,000. The IHME model, which is what the White House used to extend the original “15 days to slow the spread” out from ending at the end of March all the way until now April 30, has also been even more incorrect when it comes to hospitalization numbers. In fact, a little-noticed revision to the model—one of many that the organization has made in the past several weeks—announced that the United States has already passed the proverbial “peak” of the curve of the virus days ago when it comes to hospitalizations and now the modelers admit the virus is in retreat. 1/ Yes, the geniuses at @IHME_UW have updated their model again. According to them, we are now PAST the peak of hospitalizations – which were cut yet again, to 57,000 beds from 94,000 in the previous forecast (and 262,000 in the April 1 forecast – April Fool’s!)… pic.twitter.com/sCioDU9gtG — Alex Berenson (@AlexBerenson) April 13, 2020 Part of the reason why U.S. officials at the federal, state, and local level relied on these now demonstrably flawed models to make their public policy decisions is because they had no real-world data on the threat of the quickly-spreading disease. Chinese Communist officials in Beijing lied to the world—including the World Health Organization (WHO), which dutifully reprinted the inaccurate information the communists provided about the disease’s spread—and then Europe was rocked quickly by it as the virus took a major toll on Italy then Spain then France and the United Kingdom. Meanwhile, the coronavirus scared the public as celebrities like Tom Hanks and several NBA stars were infected early, and lawmakers like Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) as well as Reps. Ben McAdams (D-UT) and Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL) were all infected. Each of those U.S. lawmakers has since recovered, but their infections combined with the infection of U.K. prime minister Boris Johnson—who was admitted to the ICU in a British hospital for treatment as his condition worsened, something he has since bounced back from as he continues his recovery outside the hospital—gripped American leaders with fear that even they were not invincible to the threat of the coronavirus. Despite all the high-profile cases, and what appeared to be a nasty perfect storm heading into April where U.S. hospitals would have been overrun and not enough ventilators would be available to treat the public as the virus spread, the models and projections have not come to pass. The models have been so badly inaccurate, in fact, that even Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams said during an appearance on Breitbart News Daily on SiriusXM 125 the Patriot Channel on Monday morning that the White House team is no longer using them—but instead making decisions on real world data. “It’s important to know that models are projections when you don’t have data,” Adams said. “Our original models were people’s best guesses, and/or they were informed by experiences in very different cultures and very different places. What the American people need to know now is we actually have data and we’re tracking that data and we’re not as reliant on these models as we are as say ‘this is what’s happening in California, this is what’s happening in New York, this is what’s happening in New Orleans.’ We’re following that data every single day and we’re giving that data to the community so they can make intelligent and informed decisions about when and where to reopen. It’s not going to be light-switch—just like it wasn’t a light-switch going off, it’s not going to be a light-switch going back on. Different communities will reopen sooner than other communities and they’ll have to do so based on their testing data—not a model, but actual data—and their capacity to be able to follow up on cases and isolate them. I feel confident that some places will start to reopen in May, June—other places won’t—it will be piece by piece, bit by bit, but it will be data-driven.” On that note, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo—a Democrat—said on Monday that his state has contained the virus, a huge win for the country as New York has represented the American epicenter of the disease. “We can control the spread. Feel good about that,” Cuomo said early on Monday, also adding, “because, by the way, we could have got to a point when we said we can’t control this damn thing.” “The worst is over,” Cuomo also said. After announcing those breakthroughs against the virus in New York, Cuomo then led a conference call with several Democrat governors from neighboring and nearby states like New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and others to discuss reopening the country. That effort came as the governors of Washington state, Oregon, and California each announced a pact between those western states to discuss reopening the country.
