    Be honest, 'crisis care standards' are code for COVID-19 death panels

    Can you say: "We opened up too soon?"

    And also:

    "Gov. Doug Ducey and Dr. Cara M. Christ, director for the Arizona Department of Health Services, made it all sound civilized and even non-threatening.

    That's his way of saying he is neither ordering it nor blocking it. He'll let us know when DT makes up Ducey's mind for him.

    Normally they would do what they think is best, but if they are Republican they now have to make sure it is OK with DT.
