2,000,000 cases, 115,000 dead, 44.2 Million filing for unemployment, hospitals in the south starting to fill up, people losing healthcare, red ink in businesses, the market dropping and a Harvard doctor is now predicting 200,000 deaths by Sept. This is just GREAT, huh ?

I still think the estimates will be on the low side, but they are now starting to get realistic.

Good to see we're once again caring about Covid after a two week hiatus.

" I " have always cared about COVID, the process mismanagement, the lack of leadership /professional expertise and the lack of urgency.

The sad thing is . . . even after all of the physical and financial carnage, no directional change is being seen in the white house - They are either unwilling or incapable of doing so. This needs to be "managed" LOWER; they need to tell ALL Americans to wear masks and social distance themselves, they need RELIABLE tests and they need to put on their big boy pants and lead by example !

I predicted 250,000 deaths in Sept and then the jump in coastal areas - It's happening. The numbers are now VERY clear !

Just need to ride out the next couple weeks of "another nothing burger" from Trumps. They will soon be consumed and concerned about the spike while screeching about the numbers and blaming protesters.

Why would anyone blame the protestors?

Haha, you people are consistent. It's a given the close proximity of protesters will lead to spreading the virus, but isn't that what you want? Looks like a big heard there developing that immunity you all have claimed is the only solution.

So which is it - do we blame them or thank them?
 
Ha ha ha !

The re-opening of the coastal states, along with no masks or any kind of white house leadership had already reignited the COVID numbers and the loading up of hospitals long before the protests started. That's just a convenient "excuse"

Let’s be real here: Obamagate is a far bigger deal than the virus at this point
Click to expand...

It won't be to the MSM for sure.
What is Obamagate?
It is the political party in power (The Democratic Party and Obama) using the Intelligence agencies and possibly the IRS to stay in power.
It is a fact that the DNC paid agents for falsified information that was used to infiltrate a Presidential campaign and try to overthrow a sitting POTUS.
In third world countries this is called a cue.
Like Mr. Barr declared, history is written by the winners. If HRC had won the election, this would never have come to light.
We will see what is uncovered by Durham.
Regardless of your political affiliation, this is concerning.

OK.

From the Johns Hopkins site (and the additionally linked Covid Tracking Project that Johns Hopkins references)
June 10th: 20,928
June 9th: 17,554
June 8th: 16,887
June 7th: 19,931
Last time positive tests were below 15,000: March 25th (which is coincidentally the last day that my first link listed a sub-15,000 case day).

Yes, I'm being kinda a prick here, but if you are going to throw shade, at least get your easily verified facts straight.

Dagnabbit, I was hoping for a cookie.

In retrospect, my post was waspish and I apologize. That's generally not me.

Next time I'm out for a Purdue game, you bring the cookies, I'll bring the beer, and we will shall toast an epic Purdue victory.

I give you that he is not much to look at, but . . it will be a BIG, BIG, BIG improvement.

He won't cheat on his wife, won't collude with the Russians, won't repeatedly lie on a daily basis, won't assume the virus is going away, won't alienate our allies, won't lose the support of our troops, won't say there are good people on both sides or drink bleach, won't say he's a F-ing genius, won't denigrate our heroes, won't . . . . oh hell, you probably get the idea.

I’m done with being played by our leaders. The overreaction to this virus will go down as the biggest economic fleecing in our country’s history. And I’m done with believing the figures related to how many people are dying from this virus. The common flu didn’t just magically disappear when the CCP virus showed up. There are economic incentives in the CARES act for listing this new virus as the cause of death, whether or not you actually died from it, died with it or simply died with symptoms of having it.

Do we even have A leader????

If so, HE is AWOL.

Time to take "a name" and kick some ass IMO.

We have the world's worst response to the coronavirus in both number of positive cases and deaths.

But, I suppose Hillary would have done worse. :rolleyes:

When it comes to the Wuhan flu, we were lied to by China, the WHO, the media along with our federal, state and local officials. Shutting down the economy to ‘flatten the curve’ was the stated objective and that too was a lie. Keep drinking the ‘Covid 19’ kool-aid if you wish, but I’m done.

The latest on Florida - cases spiking, over 10% testing positive, etc.. Remember when I said the southern states and the coastal states were now going to be a problem in the summer, or that Florida and Texas were going to jump ? It's here !

https://www.firstcoastnews.com/arti...cases/77-0f294dbc-7f52-41ac-8311-82d6f678365b


Hospital capacity is also dwindling in those same areas - now about 30% left

https://www.kansas.com/news/coronavirus/article243642517.html


This is going to get worse and we have the red states who are following Trump's lead on NOT wearing masks to thank for the "new" carnage. (physical and economic) The Trump rallies will be like pouring gasoline on a fire. Worse yet, they KNOW it ! - Hence the reason attendees have to sign liability release forms

When will we learn - masks and social distancing work - it's not too complicated. For the U.S. to be lead this way is shameful.

Oh, I know, I know. Ha ha ha

Only trying to show it's neither a hoax, nor going away . . . in the chapters of history !

Bottom line: He is ok with it as long as it impacts his opponents more, but now it's going to impact Trump's base. What does that statement say about the man? Answer: Plenty !

One of the reasons I focus more on the start of WWI, and how it happened, is that it is more fascinating than the number of deaths on the whole and then those killed per square meter, while meant to show the cost of a meaninglessness war, it becomes gore porn and overwhelming. That said, the US was not happy with the number of it's sons who died in 13 MONTHS of combat in WWI.

Today, with COVID, and less these deaths coming in half the time it's "oh well, Don't Tread on Me, with your masks!!!" 'Merica!
