It's kind of amazing how consistent these curves are.

Some people are enthusiastically supporting extreme lock-down out of joy of telling people what they may do; or hope of a dramatic realignment of the political order more to their authoritarian liking.


Left wing authoritarians, which is a vast majority of the Democrat Party, would not have been as vocal if Obama was in the White House now.

But it serves their purpose twice to have Trump there.

First they can criticize him for not doing enough as far as completely shutting down the country. They know this would destroy the economy and hurt his reelection chances.

Second, the left wing authoritarians want a ChiCom style government in the USA with the Democrats in charge and the Republicans as the token opposition. A government like that can easily control its citizen subjects with social credit score system, restriction on movement or travel, etc.


I don’t get this one at all. Currently arguing with multiple exactly that type in a Las Vegas travel forum. Like they are delighting in a possible 12-18 month lockdown that only should be lifted if a vaccine is developed. Most are Canadian and I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

I just copied this from the John Hopkins University website that tracks the coronavirus data.

It shows USA data for new infection cases. Seems like it has leveled to around 31,000 new cases per day for the USA since April 1 to April 8.

USA tested almost 2.1MM people, more than any other nation. Even per 1MM capita they're in the still somewhere in the middle. So much for the "botched testing" narrative.


Another Fake News Propaganda item. "We don't have any tests and can't possibly produce them fast enough! ZOMG!"

Can anyone show me a legitimate video of an overwhelmed hospital in the US? Saw last night on FB a break room with 12 nurses taking a photo while eating donated pizza and all smiling looking like they were having a good 'ole time. 2 of them were people I know and they're still saying it's been chill during what is supposed to be the deadliest week of this.

I've seen other videos of maybe 3 dozen hospital staff, including nurses cheering on a Covid patient that recovered leaving the hospital. That is the complete opposite of overwhelm. They don't even do that for cancer patients. This is all so weird.

Bingo. Early December there were days when half of my kids class were out because kids were sick. 12 kids in a 22 kid class size. This is IL and not CA, but I'm still convinced this has been around for a while. Administrators said it was something they'd never seen before. Anecdotal and I'm in a small town, but we thought it was weird at the time.

Edit: Forgot to mention that many of these kids that I know well, also got sick again. Highly unlikely they got some bug or flu twice in a season.

Tell him you are homeless and he’ll leave you alone in CA, not a joke. They literally don’t arrest homeless anymore.

Just have a severe enough coughing fit into his direction. He'll be gone in no time.

You would not know from the msm. Even fox just continues to bold the overall number of deaths.

A couple more weeks and we should be down to under 1000 new daily cases.

As of today’s update, 605,390 cases in the USA. And that’s with 24,582 deaths. That’s 0.04% death rate in the USA. That seem low? It may change, as currently infected die and new infected are found, but it seems to be a very low death rate! Honestly I think this is the real win, here. Not only were out hospitals NOT overwhelmed with zombies dying in the halls, plague victims laying in the streets, but only a tiny percentage of people who caught the virus died from it.
Maybe that was better medical care, or perhaps the usage of antivirals and Chloroquine. We have learned a lot about this virus in the last couple of months and have learned how to beat it. The people who died of this were mostly having severe health problems or very old.
All things concerned, I would give the medical system in the USA an A+ for keeping such a high percentage of infected alive!

Anybody who may die in the next 50 years is counted as a Coronavirus death. It's only fair, and you can't place a price on saving lives.

The mainstream media lives on fear and division, not rationality and unity.

4%


Goddammit that is right. I forgot to multiply by 100. Well 4% is pretty goddam awful. I guess we have a lot of nearly dead people around here, who a little virus can push right off the edge.
Or it’s super deadly.
That 22 million number of estimated Chinese dead is starting to look super probable.

Clearly, it's time to RALLY!

Trump is not throwing rallies.
Biden is not starting fights at town halls.
Impeachment has been forgotten.
Hunter has not been investigated.
Epstein... you know.

24/7 Corona virus coverage as the election steadily creeps toward us.
