Coronavirus in the United States - news and thoughts

I'm from America. Where are you from?

 

People seem to be missing that the Covid-19 in its current state is much more contagious than the original form of the China virus that came out of Wuhan. It would take more than what the Chinese government imposed on those poor people in order to stamp this out here.

 

Yeah. For the people my ass.

 

Wel, it took til now, but the first person I know to catch it was today.
His daughter brought it back from UF and infected him. He seems Ok so far as expected. He doesn’t have any risk factors and is in good shape.

Just more examples of people acting recklessly and then coming to realize their errors. Like the guy who ended up in the hospital. He didn’t live in fear until he was sick and afraid. And had spread the disease himself.

 

are you concerned about parties losing their special protections?

 

I know, I said there would be no math. But this is enlightening and frightening.

 

China beat the virus and will spend much less doing it that the US or the EU

China is back to normal — the US and Europe are not. Here's how it succeeded.

• China has put the coronavirus pandemic behind it, and life has returned to largely to normal.
  
  
• During its Golden Week holiday, from October 1 and October 7, China saw 637 million people travel across the country without any surges in cases.
  
  
• Meanwhile, the US and many European countries are still struggling to quash their outbreaks and experiencing new surges as the winter approaches.
  
  
• Experts say China's fast and comprehensive testing approach, lockdowns that ran their full course, and simple, clear messaging helped it solve the problem.
  
  
• Meanwhile, the US and Europe struggled to control their outbreaks due to mixed messaging, incomplete lockdowns, weak contact tracing, and a lack of experience with epidemics.
  
  
• This week, the US, France, UK, Poland, and Belgium logged record numbers of new daily cases.

Some 637 million people — or 46% of the entire country's population — traveled around China that week, spending between them $69 billion on holidays, shopping trips, weddings, and visits to relatives, state media said.

Meanwhile, the US and a number of European nations are struggling to quash their outbreaks and reignite their economies following widespread job losses and recessions.

 

Instead our hospitality and travel industries are preparing to lay off thousands more. Our economy cannot recover until the virus is at controllable levels. 60,000+ new cases a day is far from controlled.

 

All those who really believe China raise your hands, so I see none.

 

trump at a Las Vegas Mega church this morning. No social distancing and most not wearing masks.

 

What exactly is China falsifying in this instance? They shut down completely to control the virus but now they’re going to lie about numbers of cases and open everything back up while is actually running rampant?

Here's the thing, while there are countless good reasons to be skeptical of anything official coming out of Bejing, if the situation was vastly different than advertised, we'd know about it. Just too many eyes on China. They can inhibit, but can't control all information flows.

 

Drinks last night with a couple of neighbors to celebrate his birthday. Both had covid last month, he got sick but not horrible. She went to urgent care once and the ER two days later. She actually said last night that this virus will magically disappear on 04 Nov.
I really just don’t understand some people.

 

Trump at church? He REALLY IS getting desperate!
