A father and son in Georgia are charged with murder. The Justice Department drops charges against a former Trump aide. But let’s start with the high-stakes global experiment on the pandemic that’s about to begin. The ‘trial and error’ phase Outside a bar in Vilnius, Lithuania.Mindaugas Kulbis/Associated Press The world is entering a very risky period with the coronavirus — and many health experts and ordinary people are [nervous](~/AAAAAQA~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~). The reopening has begun: Parts of Pennsylvania and North Carolina are relaxing their stay-at-home orders today. France will begin reopening next week. Similar moves are happening elsewhere. Yet there are still huge unanswered questions about the virus. How many people have it, and, by extension, how deadly is it? How often do [children spread it](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgl7o3P0TraHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wNS8wNS9oZWFsdGgvY29yb25hdmlydXMtY2hpbGRyZW4tdHJhbnNtaXNzaW9uLXNjaG9vbC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMDA1MDgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTgzMTQmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTI2OTE1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgoAJTc1tV6wTIMYUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~)? Are people who’ve had it immune from getting it again? In the United States, there are also unmet benchmarks — which epidemiologists say should be met before reopening. The U.S. is testing [fewer people per capita](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgl7o3P0S8aHR0cHM6Ly9vdXJ3b3JsZGluZGF0YS5vcmcvY292aWQtdGVzdGluZz9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD05JmVtYz1lZGl0X25uXzIwMjAwNTA4Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTE4MzE0Jm5sPXRoZS1tb3JuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0yNjkxNSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKACU3NbVesEyDGFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) than other countries, and the outbreak is [still growing](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgl7o3P0TtaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vaW50ZXJhY3RpdmUvMjAyMC8wNS8wNy91cy9jb3JvbmF2aXJ1cy1zdGF0ZXMtcmVvcGVuLWNyaXRlcmlhLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIwMDUwOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xODMxNCZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MjY5MTUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgAlNzW1XrBMgxhSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) in many states that are starting to reopen. So how bad will reopening turn out to be? The most likely scenario, [many experts believe](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgl7o3P0TlaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wNS8wNS91cy9jb3JvbmF2aXJ1cy1kZWF0aHMtY2FzZXMtdW5pdGVkLXN0YXRlcy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMDA1MDgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTgzMTQmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTI2OTE1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgoAJTc1tV6wTIMYUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~), is that the U.S. will spark new outbreaks by ending lockdowns without a more solid plan. That, in turn, could have tragic consequences, with thousands of avoidable deaths. President Trump has chosen to open up nonetheless. [As The Times’s Max Fisher notes](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgl7o3P0TkaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wNS8wNy93b3JsZC9ldXJvcGUvY29yb25hdmlydXMtcmVvcGVuaW5nLWNvc3RzLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIwMDUwOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xODMxNCZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MjY5MTUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgAlNzW1XrBMgxhSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~), Trump is “among the few leaders to push for reopening as cases continue rising in many parts of the country.” His administration has [rejected reopening guidelines](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgl7o3P0TRaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wNS8wNy91cy9wb2xpdGljcy90cnVtcC1jZGMuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD05JmVtYz1lZGl0X25uXzIwMjAwNTA4Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTE4MzE0Jm5sPXRoZS1tb3JuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0yNjkxNSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKACU3NbVesEyDGFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) from government scientists, calling them too strict. Max has a useful — if chilling — way of thinking about the new phase: It’s the “trial-and-error” phase, in which different countries take different approaches and the world witnesses the results. Lithuania, betting that outdoor activity is safer, is blocking off streets for outdoor restaurant service. California is encouraging curbside pickup instead. Denmark is opening schools to younger children (who may be less contagious), while Germany is opening for older children (who may do better following instructions). “Few want to acknowledge it, but these first phases of reopening are big experiments meant to test the unknowns,” Max told me. “It’s a dangerous game, and it’s worth being cleareyed about the risks we’re all taking on.” THE MORNING FIVE 1.

The case became a source of national outrage — from Joe Biden, LeBron James and others — after a video of the shooting emerged this week. 2. The Flynn case fits a pattern Tom Brenner for The New York Times The Justice Department’s decision to [drop criminal charges against Michael Flynn](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgl7o3P0TiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wNS8wNy91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9taWNoYWVsLWZseW5uLWNhc2UtZHJvcHBlZC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMDA1MDgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTgzMTQmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTI2OTE1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgoAJTc1tV6wTIMYUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) continues a pattern for the Trump administration: On multiple occasions, this White House has handled criminal matters in ways that are [highly favorable](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgl7o3P0TlaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wMi8xNS91cy9wb2xpdGljcy90cnVtcC1iYXJyLWp1c3RpY2UtZGVwYXJ0bWVudC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMDA1MDgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTgzMTQmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTI2OTE1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgoAJTc1tV6wTIMYUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) to political allies.

Flynn, President Trump’s first national security adviser, had pleaded guilty to lying to the F.B.I. about his contacts with a Russian diplomat. The Justice Department said it dropped the matter because those lies were not “materially” relevant to the Russia investigation. 3. Open, but not open One sign of Americans’ anxiety about the virus: Even in some states that have started to reopen, many people have said, in effect, no thanks. In Alaska, Georgia, Oklahoma and South Carolina — all states that have removed some restrictions — there has been little increase in the number of small businesses that are open or the amount of time people spend at work, [according to an analysis by economists](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgl7o3P0TlaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wNS8wNy91cHNob3QvcGFuZGVtaWMtZWNvbm9teS1nb3Zlcm5tZW50LW9yZGVycy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMDA1MDgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTgzMTQmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTI2OTE1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgoAJTc1tV6wTIMYUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~).

For me, it has been the monthly jobs report. For the last 13 years, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern on either the first or second Friday of the month, I’ve awaited the latest numbers. Most of the time, it’s fun, if you’re into that sort of thing. I’ve participated in the jobs day conversation while on my honeymoon (by agreement with my wife, I could tweet about it but not file an article), and from a rooftop pool in Athens (after a long week of reporting on the Greek debt crisis). There will be nothing fun about Friday’s report. It’s hard to even fathom what we’re going to learn, or what kinds of words can capture the human pain beneath the eye-popping numbers. We should despair for the millions of Americans who are without work, the potentially long-lasting damage to their families and to the nation’s productive potential.
