July 21, 20205 yr 3 minutes ago, Lloyd said: I find it odd that he needed to add the descriptor "invisible" to the "China Virus", since - ya know - viruses tend to be microscopic. But hey, at least he's wearing one. While that is odd, it isn't surprising at all that he needed to throw in a healthy dose of racism while doing the "right thing."
July 21, 20205 yr 13 hours ago, Lloyd said: Hey, a plan would be lovely. Without a plan, it all sounds like "LIBERATE MICHIGAN" "REOPEN THE ECONOMY" all over again. Which is, rushing towards an end goal (getting people to spend money again, or getting kids in school so parents can go to work and spend money again) without considering the necessary steps to EARN that end goal. It's almost like the MLB and NFL trying to start up again...ya know, like we know how this story is gonna end. So can we at least pretend to be smart and cautious as we inevitably keep ourselves buried in this pandemic until scientists bail us out with a vaccine? The way I look at it is we’re all coal miners now. Coal miners brave going into dangerous conditions every day to earn their livelihood. Not everyone is willing to take that risk but those who do get paid a little premium. That’s how our economy should be working right now

That’s how our economy should be working right now Compared to much of the western world, we did f--k all to create or implement a unified plan to slow the spread of the virus. So, nah, I don't think we've earned the faith and trust that's needed for members of this society to rekindle our relationship with the economy. People aren't gonna go to malls and movie theaters when they risk bringing a virus with them on their weekly trips to grandma's house.

July 21, 20205 yr Get your popcorn ready! https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/21/politics/trump-coronavirus-briefing/index.html Quote In order to convince him, aides developed a compromise: his briefings could cover a range of topics, not only the pandemic. That means it's likely the country will hear about a number of unrelated issues when the President takes the podium, including references to quelling protests in Portland and federal efforts to tamp down on violence in cities with Democratic mayors -- two of Trump's fixations which he believes play well with his supporters

July 21, 20205 yr Quote It didn’t have to be this way. Nations all over the world successfully flattened the curve and are starting to reopen responsibly. These nations all have something we do not: a head of state that trusts science, listens to experts and puts the good of the people first. Had Trump heeded the warnings and responded appropriately, we would have flattened the curve and returned to something close to normal by now. We have not.
July 21, 20205 yr it's going to disappear and he's going to be right. That's what he told Wallace. I did not see the whole interview. Today will be more of the same.

July 21, 20205 yr Here's my ( your US home) county data. I still keep an eye on it. Big surprise the greatest number of cases is in the 20-29 age group. https://chesco.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/975082d579454c3ca7877db0a44e61ca

There are some differences, but not enough to explain away what's going on. Trump has not really tried. That the bottom line. He just wants to wish it away. He's a child.

July 21, 20205 yr 13 hours ago, DBW said: College I think is a little different...by that time many students don’t wanna sit in lecture halls and are more adaptable to remote learning. It will prepare them for the outside world. Especially junior and seniors. Freshman and sophomores might still want that college life. So I can’t say I blame them. Some NC universities are doing all online except labs and classes where you'd need to be there.

July 21, 20205 yr 17 hours ago, Lloyd said: So mikemack's argument here is that because coronavirus doesn't infect 100% of the people in a particular situation, there's nothing to worry about? 17 hours ago, Dave Moss said: Mike Mack went to Florida and didn’t get Corona so there’s nothing to worry about folks. We can open the schools back up now. 17 hours ago, VanHammersly said: Has anyone gone to Portland and not gotten killed by a rioter? If so, we can close the book on that one too. My point, basically, was that I did everything all you fat slob losers are terrified of doing and everything was just fine. Weird that I had to spell it out for you, but OK. You can all go back to your regularly scheduled fear mongering and doomsday predictions.
