OT Coronavirus: America in chaos, News and Updates. One million Americans dead and counting

Fake news. Those are majority old jobs of people returnung to their job. trump lies.

 

We are still at 11.1% which is worse than the worst of the great recession - and that's before all the re-closing that is coming with Covid ramping up.

This president seems to not understand cause, effect and the time lag between them - but nobody is really surprised by this anymore. Hope he does not pull a muscle by this celebration or he will not even be able to use an escalator...

 

Beavis and Butthead would be considered narcs in today's world.

 

Beavis and Butthead would be better candidates than trump/ pence. So would Spongebob and Patrick

 

And they'd still beat Hillary!

 

I sure hope there's significant punishments applied to those arrogant assholes. Not as far as firing them...probably. But they should be sternly educated in their chain of command (hint: a woman sits on top) and who they actually work for

generally speaking, I think police departments everywhere need significant re-education. The thin blue line is really a thick-headed blue line

 

such a shame he’s now hospitalized. Hates masks.

Oregon COVID cases: 375 new cases in 21 counties

 

I would vote for a Beavis/Butthead vs. Spongebob/Patrick ticket over a Trump/Pence vs. Biden/ ? ticket... any day of the week!

 

This is the kind of dumb we have to deal with in this country. @TorturedBlazerFan, maybe this is why we're an outlier!

Students in Alabama Threw COVID Parties to See Who Would Get Infected First, Say Officials

(TUSCALOOSA, Ala.) — Several college students in an Alabama city organized “COVID-19” parties as a contest to see who would get the virus first, officials said.

Tuscaloosa City Councilor Sonya McKinstry said students hosted the parties to intentionally infect each other with the new coronavirus, news outlets reported.

McKinstry said party organizers purposely invited guests who tested positive for COVID-19. She said the students put money in a pot and whoever got COVID first would get the cash.

“It makes no sense,” McKinstry said. “They’re intentionally doing it.”

Tuscaloosa Fire Chief Randy Smith confirmed the incidents to the City Council on Tuesday.

The department thought the parties were rumors, but Smith said after some research, officials discovered the parties were real.

“Not only do the doctors’ offices confirm it but the state confirmed they also had the same information,” Smith said.

Smith did not say whether actions would be taken against the students. He also did not say which schools the students attend.

Tuscaloosa is home to The University of Alabama and several other colleges.

Tuscaloosa City Council members unanimously approved a mask requirement during a meeting Tuesday.

For most people, the new coronavirus causes mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough that clear up in two to three weeks. For some, especially older adults and those with existing health problems, it can cause more severe illness and even be fatal.​

 

According to donnie dolittle, the cupboard was bare and was left with no pandemic guidelines. But then we have this article.

exerpt from the article

As a senior policy adviser to an Obama administration Cabinet member, I attended part of the Jan. 13, 2017, transition exercise in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building — which included a session focused on preparing the incoming Trump administration for how to respond as a government (rather than as a re-election campaign) to a pandemic. The meeting included at least 30 members of the incoming Cabinet and staff, alongside their Obama administration counterparts.

 

I can assure you there are idiots all over the world. The problem is that our so called leadership glamorizes being idiots...

 

Great video showing the effectiveness of types of masks and no mask.

Wear your masks. If not for yourself at least for others.

 

Wear a mask. Don’t be dumb. This is what I said the other day and it was a controversy in here.

 

There are idiots all over the world, but not only do we have leaders who glamorize it, we've taken as a national identity that one's right to be stupid should never be abridged. That's why this nation is the only one (as far as I know) to have resisted seat belt laws.

That's why I believe we're an outlier. Not because we have incorrect numbers (or any more incorrect than other nations') but because our national identity revolves around not only being an individual, but that being an individual means resisting even common sense safety.

 

Exxxxxactly. Well said.
