The number of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 in California has risen by 32% over the past two weeks, and intensive-care admissions have spiked by 30%, Dr. Mark Ghaly, the state's health and human services secretary, told reporters

This is WITH masking and distancing.  How is that so?

British Columbia, which had successfully clamped down on one of North America’s earliest outbreaks at the beginning of the year, is struggling as well.

Wow.

Tough, tough virus, even when you are supposedly smarter than the U.S.

Government loosened their restrictions. Same thing that happened in too many places here.

But, as ever, asshole, you totally missed the underlying truth.

In this BIG rise in cases, they got all the way up to 300/million.

They have 266 cumulative deaths from COVID-19.

That's 52 deaths per million.

The US is at 741 deaths per million.

Our neighbor to BC, Washington, is at 327 deaths per million.

Our best state is Vermont, at 95 deaths per million, just for a little fucking perspective.

You keep finding these places that you think she how tough the virus is and how even they are struggling...

And all you do is drive home again and again how incompetent this administration has been.

Trump letting it out the box is a big reason he got shit canned. Shame more republicans didn’t get shit canned with him, though I expect more to get caught out or fall gravely ill over the next sixty or so days.

But the R-senators (excl the 4 above) in the absence of any proof of election fraud, are far more than cowards, they are accomplices in undermining our election and our democracy. They are doing lasting harm and they know it.



Naaaaahhhh

Cmon, mate

We know who you are running cover for, kiddo

Opening schools and putting children and educators at risk is unconscionable. Duh, has nothing to do with spiraling rate they say.

The f*****g nerve it takes to not only benefit from an already imbalanced system but to then gut the Voting Rights Act, engage in unprecedented gerrymandering, remove voting machines to cause hours-long lines, pass voter ID laws, cripple the USPS & then claim YOU'VE been cheated.

That's your failed point.

My point is that Trump could have saved 200,000 lives or more and didn't.

My point is that you keep talking about how tough this virus is, but refuse to discuss how much more difficult it has been in this country than it had to be.

That if our country had followed Germany's example we'd have ~199,000 fewer deaths SO FAR. Almost all of its neighbors have more than double the death rate they do.

But you want to try to absolve Mr. "A+" Trump, because that is what you have done all the way along.

Kid thinks if something isn't easy it either can't be done or isn't worth doing.

Not surprising really.

I shared this 4 years ago.

It seems remarkably apt in our current circumstances.
