That would be great in theory

But it is not really plausible.

Sure, there are some obvious vulnerable people

But there are many many people that have no clue that they have an issue that could lead to a hospital visit once Covid starts attacking them.

For example, People walk around with a Von Willebrand issue and dont know it. This is common not to know.

African American males tend to have a g6pd issue. How many know if they have it???

I have a blood disorder that causes blood oxygen problems and oxidative stress.. Still dont know if it is going to make me more vulnerable. Common sense says yes.

BUT stories in Italy indicate perhaps not.

And as one person in the medical field here said, perhaps I would have a better time with it because my body is used to the issue.

The one good thing about the protests is that it is now going to spread to those willing to risk their lives and it will lead to herd immunity. People are done with lockdowns. They arent wearing masks.

If they get it, it’s on them.

Meanwhile, I wear a face shield hat and a mask

So many unknowns.

A healthy 20 something Hooters server in Texas is in the hospital. Bet she never thought it would happen to her.

Does not mean Dr Louis P Coates is right because she has a “DR” before her name. I talked with a VA Doctor and she said the data is wrong. She also told me that the masks are killing people. People are getting face infections and sick from those infections. Gum and mouth problems are showing up as well has jaw disorders (TMJ).

Don’t buy any of this one little bit.

How is your VA Dr going to know what is going on in Hays County, Tx. I think the Mayor knows more than your Dr.

I dont doubt masks are causing a problem for workers who have to wear them every day all day long.

I dont have to. I wear it for the time it takes to go into the store and out of the store. And will continue to do so...along with my hat/face shield.

KTUL announced a spike here in Tulsa. In the same article they also said that Tulsa has quadrupled the number of testing facilities. Coincidence?

THEY, are testing everything and everybody. I’m sure many have and forgive me since I’m no medical expert, but some covid antibodies in their system. Basically means we were exposed, not sick, and that’s the end of it. But to CNN this means we will all die. I really am beginning to hate the country I was brought up in. It really doesn’t resemble my America. Who are these people anyway. Why do they want to destroy our country. What is there possible motivation.

Overall US numbers are trending down, both new infections and deaths... Daily deaths are trending under 1,000 a day, after highs over 2,000 a day in April/May.. and yes, the amount of testing has gone through the roof. Last Friday saw a 46% increase in testing in the US, one day alone. But positive cases was up only 18%...

But now that most of the protests are over, the MSM has to fuss about crowds because of Trump rallies. They want to force Trump to NOT do rallies, because Biden is incapable physically and mentally of doing rallies.

Hospitalizations due to Corona or just hospitalizations due to many getting elective surgery that was postponed?

No, hospitals report Covid hospitalizations separately. There is a noticeable uptick in hospitalizations in Fla, as well as a clear increase in positive test results. Additionally the rate of positives vs tests runs between 6 to 9% over the last week.

Who would have thought that more testing would reveal more cases?

Sweden is number 7 in per capita deaths from Corona. Sweden did not have a hard lock down. The first six nations did have a hard lock down. Sweden did it right.

Any doctor knows more than a mayor anytime, anyplace about who is sick or not. Most mayors have a hard time reading a clock let alone a chart.
