The business leaders so far agree with the medical leaders --> if mass testing is not in place, the business world cannot get going.

Ukraining the WHO isn’t working out quite the way t-bags had hoped it would. It’s sad how few clubs he has in his bag and that even his best shots are shanks or worse.

T-bags is for trump body bags, not only a title for the imposter president, but also a product soon to be available at whitehouse.gov and through the RNC.

New high in daily deaths in the US.

The new cases number, instead of staying down near 26k jumped up over 30k for the first time since 4/10.

But at least the US dead to concluded cases ratio is dying down again!

That is a Republican candidate for congress in the photo ignoring social distancing... and also the guy with the Proud Boys bandana, flashing the white power sign. FREDOM!

Waving Confederate flags while screaming about defending the Constitution is a bit off putting, no?

Some people, if not dogs, definitely have fleas.

So, naturalists observe, a flea
  Hath smaller fleas that on him prey;
  And these have smaller still to bite 'em;
  And so proceed ad infinitum.
  Thus every poet, in his kind,
  Is bit by him that comes behind.

Quote
  MOSCOW — In a remote alpine meadow in Kyrgyzstan a few years ago, a teenage boy killed and skinned a marmot. Five days later, his parents carried the sweating, delirious boy to a village hospital where he died of bubonic plague.

Like a ghost from the medieval past, the plague still makes occasional, unwelcome appearances in remote regions of the former Soviet Union, where it survives today in wild rodents.

Over the centuries, with improved public hygiene, the plague declined as a threat. Today, as a bacterial infection, it is treatable with antibiotics, if caught in time.

But the plague was still a lethal menace in the 1920s and also an embarrassment for the Soviet Union, which established a specialized state agency to track and contain it.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

Florida has been lying about its official death counts.

Quote
Around noon Monday, the state reported 97 COVID-19 deaths in Miami-Dade while the county medical examiner's office attributed 138 deaths to the virus. In Broward, the medical examiner's office said 97 deaths were linked to the virus while the state listed 76 deaths in its report."

"NBC 6 Investigators learned that the Florida Department of Health asked Miami-Dade authorities to not release records that show the deaths in the county. These records had been requested by NBC 6 through a public records request."
