Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) Official Thread

Trump takes no responsibility for anything so occasionally adults have to act in his stead.

Since I was referencing Governors, the adult you are referring to is Kate Brown?

 

[BrentN]

And you feel she is NOT playing politics?

I was referencing governors across the nation taking the helm since the president apparently is disinterested in doing so.

 

[Hop Sing]

Heck no - all politicians play politics. Personally, I think she is off putting and not concerned with anything other than what goes on in Portland and the circle with whom she runs.

I see. Well I called out left coast govs and you came back with "someone has to be an adult since Trump doesn't want to", so I was confused. Which Govs do you think have done well? Texas and Florida come to mind for me, higher state populations than New York, and yet a fraction of the mortality rate.

Apologies for the confusion. I reckon we'll see how this all plays out, but it's a game where there are no winners, IMO.

Attorney General William Barr said last month that the Justice Department would intervene if stay-at-home orders in response to the coronavirus pandemic become too restrictive, directing federal prosecutors "to be on the lookout" for state and local directives that could be violating constitutional rights.

DOJ warns Los Angeles, Illinois of possible illegality of stay-at-home orders

BUT, But, but....there's an EMERGENCY going on!!!!

Because the stylist and the customers wore face coverings, health officials said on Friday, they hoped the interactions would lead to "no additional cases". Those potentially exposed would be contacted and offered testing, officials said.

The potential exposures started little more than a week after Missouri allowed salons to reopen.

The push by Donald Trump and some state governors to reopen most businesses with some public health modifications, such as social distancing and masks, comes as public health officials warn that relaxing restrictions will certainly lead to new outbreaks.

OMG....just when I was hoping to get a hair cut.

Note how the blame game is still being played? And, guess who......is the "poster boy?"

With all the generosity.....I knew stuff was bound to happen. Like : waste, fraud and abuse.

OK, Ok, ok..... maybe this is more like an individual's greed?

Doctor testing Moderna vaccine says it's 'simply mind-boggling' that injection may be ready in 2020.

Testing in the USA vs. S. Korea.....what went wrong?

Dori: Inslee sees our devastated economy as a wonderful 'opportunity' for climate agenda

Every day I hear from people whose lives are being destroyed by our crumbling economy. We have 900,000 newly unemployed workers in our state.

The YOU isn't meant for Jooky111 (personally), it's more like....
The news media, politicians/government experts and many doctors/CDC have ALL managed to fail/disappoint me at one time or another during this pandemic. Rrrrright....plenty of blame to go around. So then......truthfully.....at this point, I don't know what to think or whos word to take.



So, where?

Inslee is the same idiot who (before you start telling me that it isn't real, I know that) probably cheered when Thanos snapped his finger and half of the worlds population was gone.

Some wear masks thinking they're being socially responsible while privately recognizing masks don't work. But, if it makes others 'feel' what's the harm...?

Others insist on mask wearing as dogma as it provides a sense of unity among other mask wearers who feel at ease among their own. I like your mask...it's cool. Well yours is even prettier. Gush!

Then you have those who scoff at mask wearing knowing it's a simple exercise in delusion. These people are scoffed at by the mask wearers who hate reality, but feel comfort in illusion...

Staying shut in has caused more virus spread than if folks were allowed to come and go as free citizens.

 

[Rickenbacher39]

What we really need are more experts on this.
Not nearly enough experts.
Yeah, that would work.

There is so much disinformation out there now you could convince at
least half the population that this was all started by Unicorns.

Ric,

Wait...it wasn't?

There might just be some "good news" (or "bad news") from the UK.

Oxford scientists working on a coronavirus vaccine say there is now only a 50% chance of success because the number of UK cases is falling too quickly

But then, there is a bit of bad news from Alabama.
