Marxist Media Continue to Push COVID 19 When Electorate Has Long Put it Behind Them

Public health experts are increasingly frustrated with America's lack of leadership on coronavirus | CNN

Even after widespread lockdowns, the United States has failed to stomp out the coronavirus and again finds itself in a rapid surge of cases. Public health experts place particular blame on a lack of leadership.

It's June almost July.... really Democrats? Your governor's, state legislators, Mayor's and city council's are using COVID 19 as an excuse for piss poor leadership.

Again, I ask, what reality do you right wingers live in? How do you create an alternative reality that deals in "facts" and "truths" that you believe? Is it right wing media? Are your minds that soft?, that weak?, that malleable?
Leadership starts from the top down. Those deaths and economic carnage get laid largely at the feet of the person who was responsible for coordinating and directing action to combat the spread of the virus...but he was too
busy denying and rallying. Now we're on the upward path to another March 11-13, 2020. And still, no leadership from the White House. I've given up at this point. Bring on November. Time to clean house.

But you just keep going on blaming the media.

Speaking of reality. Did you really think the virus would magically disappear after the lockdown?

Are we supposed to keep the country/world locked down?

The reality is you can't control a virus, the lockdown just prolonged the spike. 99+% of the people who contract the virus either don't show any symptoms whatsoever or recover within a week, that's reality.

Life must go forward. Democrats would destroy our economy, democracy, society, and our way of life because of their hatred of President Trump. Newsflash to the socialist/Marxist/ Democrats (all the same) the average working class American supports OUR President and OUR Republic.

Good of you to hit all the alt-right talking points. But you forgot "they hate America".
Oh yeah, Trump has already shown he doesn't care one iota about the virus or what havoc it wreaks.
Most of us have dismissed him already. We'll just formalize it in November. I sincerely hope that most
sane Americans will also take this opportunity to show the Republicans the door as well. Long past time
for them to be in the minority again.

So, just deflection. Got it.

What deflection? Nothing to deflect. There are no Democrats trying to destroy the economy, or the country, or anyone's way of life. Those are just alt-right wet dreams. No one wants to see a shutdown. But governors, mayors, and business leaders were forced to (and it looks like forced to again) take action when there was nothing in the way of guidance or action from the White House. Something that continues to this day. But I'm sure you'll absolve your hero of ANY responsibility. It's all the big, bad Democrats fault.

How long should the shutdown be? When will the virus disappear? How many times have you been out of your house since this all started?

No one is advocating for a shutdown. That's the point. People are advocating for common sense and TESTING. Masks, social distancing, making sure enough tests are available, contact tracing, etc. Work on a reliable anti-body test.
I believe the first shutdown would not have been largely necessary if people could just be trusted to do the right fucking thing. Wear a mask, social distance, hygiene..and if you have so much as a sniffle...STAY HOME!!
I also think if we had anything resembling a functional head of the federal government, we'd be in better shape. But the guy was more interested in campaigning (like he has since the day he was inaugurated) than he was in doing his job.

I've been out of my house quite a bit over the last two months. I wear a mask, give people a wide berth, and make sure I use hand sanitizer and scrub my hands until they are almost bleeding.

So, you are against the shutdowns then? Good to know, and me too. Thanks.

If human beings could be trusted to do the right thing. Wear a mask, social distance, keep in mind the more vulnerable. Stay away from people if you feel the slightest bit under the weather. And if our President and his merry band of sycophants would have taken this virus seriously in January. But that time has passed and that shipped has sailed, and as Memorial Day proved, most people are idiots. 40K new cases just today. Just too many people who aren't taking the threat seriously. We may be screwed here. Some states may have to shut down again...maybe for an even longer period of time.

What happens when they open back up? There seems to be no line at the hospitals, only lines I see are the ones restricting businesses from full capacity. Wonder why?!?

Good question, although the answer has been given months ago. It's called flatten the curve. You reopen when the number of infections stabilizes. It's what's been done in most of the Western World and has proven an overall success. The goal is not to eradicate the virus but rather to control it. What the US did was reopen when the virus wasn't under control.

That's exactly what we did. And, when we started reopening it spiked again, duh. So, I'll ask again, how long should we shut down? No matter how long we shutdown the moment we reopen it will spike again. When will the virus disappear? The answer is after the election, that is if Biden wins.

I challenge you to look at this site. Check out the curve for the US and then compare it to other nations who are reopening. See if you can spot the difference.

Sorry, but I don't trust ANY information that is being reported on this virus. If the democrats know so much why aren't they leading the way?

You don't believe any information? Of course, you don't because it's more likely that the people at John's Hopkins don't know how to gather data than you being wrong.

here are the facts the media wont report:

China was fearing a trade war with the US, so they imposed sanctions on North Korea.

the Chinese economy was collapsing, while the US economy was going gangbusters

feeling cornered, China had no choice but to UNLEASH THE CHINAVIRUS!

What happens when they open back up? There seems to be no line at the hospitals, only lines I see are the ones restricting businesses from full capacity. Wonder why?!?

You pay attention to the news? ICU beds (where most COVID patients go by the time they are hospitalized) are almost at a max in parts of several states. And who forms a line at a hospital? Outside of the mobile testing facilities I've seen pop up...and those are mostly in parking lots. The uptick in the virus cases can be traced straight back to Memorial Day weekend and the week after when people walked out, said "it's over" and promptly forgot all the common sense of the previous two months. Look, no one wants to see a shutdown again but if things keep spiraling the way they are, some states (Texas and Arizona are already rolling some opening measures back) won't have a choice.

If we practice the common sense steps that experts know slows or stops the spread of the virus, then we can at least go out and about and conduct our daily lives with a minimum of risk. Will we be able to sit and have drinks with our friends in crowded bars?, sit in a restaurant with a bunch of other people close by?, go to concerts with packed crowds?...No. Those days are over, at least for the time being. Until there is a viable treatment, a reliable anti-body test, and a viable and safe vaccine (which may be years away), life won't go totally back to the way it was say in January and even February. Best if we just accept it and follow the guidelines, eventually, we'll come through it.
