Hello Dale,
DS> The latest quote of from Trump shows how he is managing the Covid
DS> pandemic. I.e. ignore it and expect it to go away on its own -- or
DS> let the states handle it.
He just doesn't seem to realize just how dangerous a pandemic can be, he was calling caronavis a hoax early on, thinking he could deflect that away with that kind of talk like he tried to do with the "Russia" hoax.
DS> Is it any coincidence that most of the states that are running off the
DS> chart with number of infections and hospitalizations and deaths are in
DS> states with Republican governers who are following Trump's lead in
DS> what to do.
I think that is what we are seeing now, the result of states opening up to soon, before the curve was flattened.
DS> One thousand plus deaths per day. more than 160,000 deaths overall.
I have never seen anything like it. Remember the armed protests to reopen states that took place a short time ago? All of us need to take this pandemic seriously.
I have seen things I would not have believed six months ago.
DS> When will it end?
I hope it will end at the first possible moment but it's not going away until we take the steps necessary.
Ttyl :-),
