“If you have chosen to go on vacation into a hot spot, you really need to come back and protect those with co-morbidities and assume you’re infected.”

Blatant fearmongering. Unless you have had close consistent contact with someone who is incubating it or has the virus you have little chance of getting the virus. It is not a magic virus.

Avoiding large crowds where people are cheek to jowl makes sense especially if there is a large amount of community spread. But only because it is more difficult to tell if somebody is sick.

But just going about your vacation in a normal manner is not going to make you a vector for the virus. And what happened to “Masks will save us!” Aren’t most hot spots mandating masks. If not state wide at least in various counties and cities?

I would love to know how many among Native tribes in AZ ever had or currently have TB. If I remember correctly TB is rather high in that population.

New cases are down today in Florida. Less than 5,000.

So FIRE HER ALREADY, Mr. President. Show her and Fauci the door and get yourself some REAL DOCTORS. Have been screaming this at him since March.

“..Shut this bitch up please....”

It would be easy enough just by locking up Scarf and Fauxi in GITMO as domestic enemy combatants, traitors and for crimes against humanity for what they did to the economy and lives of the People.

Because!
...she started her ‘crazy talk, more Covid’ AFTER Nancy trashed her.

She would rather please Nancy than Trump!

And what happened to “Masks will save us!”


If the masks work, why do we need social distancing?

If social distancing works, why do we need the masks?

If both masks and social distancing work, why is the economy largely shut down?

Something doesn’t add up - and NOT ONE SINGLE REPORTER HAS ASKED THESE SIMPLE QUESTIONS!!!!!!

The fear industry is enjoying a bull market. People can’t get enough of it.

Did she really say you should wear a mask at home?

They’re really pushing the envelope on the absurd.

I see that you, too, put value on the kind of demographic data that political correctness currently denies us. It would be very useful; but it is taboo. More’s the pity.

I may be wrong, but I don’t think the “daily” death totals mean they all died yesterday. In Florida, for example, death totals are tallied daily, however, depending on circumstances, deaths may have occurred anywhere from weeks to months prior, but are logged on a daily basis.

Like I said:

Would be nice to get some real, solid numbers from somewhere.

You'd think "How many died of this disease today?" would be an easy enough data point to tell.

Great post by Diogenesis and followup by you, polymuser. I never thought of it from that angle.

The fact that no one seems to have a problem with all these disease-riddled masks just lying around in our environment or in landfills, and being transported through the waste system who-knows-how by who-knows-who, belies the contention that this is “the most deadly virus in world history”.
