Re: “In French fry heartland, spring turns bitter as coronavirus cuts into global demand” [May 1, Northwest]: This made me pause, cringe and empathize with the farmer, Mike Pink.

Let’s all remember that COVID-19 is a global pandemic. As bad as it is in the U.S., low-income countries are suffering in nightmarish ways.

Washington voters turned out to the polls in nation-leading fashion in March. The reason we were able to do that — even as we were an epicenter of coronavirus — is because we don't actually turn out. We vote from home. The president made clear this week he doesn't like the idea to expand this way of voting, because too many people might vote.

Recent protests against stay-at-home orders are political theater and a distraction from the real problem facing us — which is that government is failing to ramp up enough testing. The virus isn’t much chastened by guns or bellicose threats, but it can be hunted down relentlessly and isolated, by science. Why aren't we doing it?
