Where have you been? The numbers have been dropping for two weeks! Half of the deaths have been in NY, so we shut an entire an entire nation? And we do know that the economy will be destroyed since millions are already out of work. The issue was to prevent the health care system from being overwhelmed, not to prevent every single death. That was the ‘peak’ that was to watched for and the numbers of dead were nowhere near what the models projected. Just on that fact, we have seen a vast decrease since the 200,000 dead never happened!
All those scared by Fauci saying that opening up will cause a surge in cases need to list the accurate predictions about cases and deaths by Fauci over the last 3+ months.
April 27th will be a big day. That’s when Texas will decide how fast/slow they are going to loosen the restrictions.
Looks like the uptick in deaths today is mainly Pennsylvania and Michigan (both northern states btw). Anything different today about how they are counting deaths?
“The coming economic fallout will end up killing more people (outside of NYC) than the virus.”
Or boredom.

The more states open up, it will put pressure on others to open.
Welcome, welcome!
You’ve arrived at the front door of the club some of us joined a month ago.
Glad to have ya!
Death numbers are fake to begin with, but even were they real, they lag behind the number of new cases, which is probably also fake.
Once people get the disease it takes a while for a very small percentage of them to die from it. The death numbers reflect the new case numbers from a week or two ago.
Of course they won’t. They have to act like this is real to prevent all out car-burning, capitol-attacking riots all over the country by people whose lives have been ruined over a lie.
Even the ones who know we’re being lied to, which I believe Trump and many of the governors and law-enforcement people around the country do, have to take a careful approach or Civil War 2 will begin.
And keep stringing people along by extending lockdowns another two weeks, another month, with no sign of letting up. Mules don’t like it when you dangle a carrot in front of them and then yank it away.
Everyone can see what’s going on here except those who simply don’t want to, and I believe those people are so blinded by brainwashed fear that they’re lying to themselves.

There are laws of economics that can’t be denied. We know what’s going to happen if we don’t get the economy rolling. Severe damage has already been done.
14 days was a number somebody pulled out of their ass just to put structure to the “reopening plan”.
As soon as reopening was seriously talked about, and that numbers need to come down to attain that goal, we start hearing how the number of tests is going to ramp up greatly. More tests means more cases means nobody is going to reopen.
It’s a game. It’s political manipulation. The people know it and aren’t taking it anymore.
Good point. Fauci is a so called MD who has never had any real job. He went to the US gov. after his residency. He has zero experience with patients.
Very few politicians have 30 semester hours in Econ or 30 in Business. What governor even has an MBA? We have mostly attorneys and punks in office.
