The Coronavirus thread

Gov Cuomo for President?

it’s clear this will be used for political purposes as soon as it seems the worst has passed. It’s also clear the Dems know that Biden will get crushed. Could they use this emergency to pump up Cuomo as the hero of the outbreak, then hand him the nomination after Biden drops for health reasons?

I think we need to push back the elections for another 2-3 years given the emergency situation we are in. Emergency Trump extension, then we can have another 4.
 
It must really piss you off that we have a secret vaccine, our 401ks are doing just fine, bars and restaurants have secret hours for us and we have secret schools open for our kids.

Would you please stop writing **** that makes me laugh. We are supposed to be adversaries.
 
Be careful with that online shopping! There are 1,927 theories about how long COVID lives on cardboard.

ONE-SICK ORDER Coronavirus spreads to at least SIX Amazon warehouses shipping packages to isolated Americans

Cases have broken out at warehouses in New York City and Shephersville, Kentucky, as well as Jacksonville, Florida, and Katy, Texas.

Elsewhere, there have also been cases in Browntown, Michigan, and Oklahoma City.

Responses have appeared to vary from warehouse to warehouse, with some facilities shutting for cleaning, while others have told those in close proximity to infected co-workers to quarantine.

On Tuesday, news of a positive test was shared with a small group of supervisors at a Staten Island, New York, facility, according to the New York Post.

That facility remains open, The Post reported, though staff have expressed their concerns.

Chris Smalls, a management assistant at the facility, said: "They don’t have people’s best interests in mind. It’s irresponsible and inhumane to have us keep working there.

“We’re going to be a second wave [of the outbreak]. I understand we’re essential to our communities, but we’re not helping out the community if we’re carrying the virus.

“It can definitely travel to drivers and other people down the line. If the sort centers are infected, then, yeah, you got a problem and it can go to customers.

"It’s a domino effect.”
 
"It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly American criminal class except Congress."

Lindsey Graham on TV saying he will vote to pass the bill. **** him and anyone that votes for it. Vote him out.
 
They vote to pass this on a call in vote with no accountability of their vote, I will never vote for another Republican. They always knuckle under to the Dems. Our only hope is that Trump vetoes the bill, and I have doubts about that.
 
On reading the bill almost all of Pelosi's **** was removed. Kennedy Center still gets 25 million. THey are voting to remove the fuckup/intentional fuckup of the unemployment paying people more than they make. That is the part that is maddening. If I am going to 40 percent of my salary a week plus $600 lay me the **** off. Jesus.I am still in training at my job so I am getting paid at least not on commission yet thank god but the unemployment would be more. How the **** do you justify that to people like my wife working her *** off in a retirement/nursing facility and losing her other part time jobs which she can't apply for unemployment for as far as i know.

That's what they want him to do. Veto it. Then they can render themselves blameless. Orange man bad. See he vetoed the help you needed. He doesn't care.


They are the lowest form of life in my book and an enemy of the republic. Thankfully stupid Nancy has been front and center with her demands,so it's morw widely known to the casual observer.


If they actually had some libertarian/conservative/constitutional candidate I'd certainly vote for them, if they could win.

Why would anyone want to work? And once you that horse out of the barn, it’s not getting back in. Do not do this in any way, shape or form. We will not make it back.

If this creates more welfare queens, this bill is going to tank this generation for good.
I’m all for temporary help because a lot of people have lost their jobs.

But this is a slap in the face to those who are working their ***** off.
It really is hard to trust politicians.

Lots of people have been saying this for a week or two

hahaha...our media is full window licker.

I've given up hope for our future. It's ******. Anyway you slice it or dice it. The result will be the same. The whole thing just needs a reboot.


All over a contagious flu that will run its course no matter what we do. It will be back even if it dips out for a while.

Hopefully enough will be immune to it. The rest hiding under rocks may get sick.
 
So the Nevada governor blocks the use of chloroquine treating virus because it's not "safe". Meanwhile, apparently doctors all over the country are prescribing it for themselves and their families in effect hoarding it. What a bizarro ******* shitshow.

They should impeach that imbecile right now... in a ten year window there has never been more than 8 cases of malaria in nevada in a single year... and never more than 3 in a month... in some years the total was zero... what, pray tell, is he saving it for.... that huge malaria outbreak he expects?

No he's deeming it unsafe while doctors across the US are writing themselves prescriptions for it, just in case. They've put a warning on prescribing it to stop the fraud.
 
NPR station decides to not air daily federal response briefings during global crisis. This is incredible.
KUOW statement on live White House Coronavirus Task Force briefings
KUOW recently made an editorial decision to stop airing White House briefings on the coronavirus pandemic live on a daily basis. We will continue to cover these briefings – but believe it is imperative that they are fact-checked, which is a challenge during a live broadcast.

This action has caused some to question whether this decision was politically based. It was not.

No comment needed other than pull federal funding for NPR immediately.
 
Solook, the stimulus bill doesn’t help me personally at all... at least not directly...

i’m single and outearn the personal criteria, and Im essential so I am still employed and my industry isn’t any part ofvthe bailout....

Nonetheless i see the importance of the loans and handouts to individuals and some sectors, but this is overkill for certain... both sides are playing politics and absolutely letting companies use this as an excuse to rectify bad business decisions apart from the virus...
 
So let me show again why the left’s antitrump obsession is dangerous

In November whatever this is broke out in China
In December it leaked to the World
By January it was on its way to a global epidemic and doctors began experimenting with various treatments, including Chloroquine
By February it was adopted as the or one of the best treatments in both China, and south korea... at this time several intelligent people started pushing it as a cure
In the beginning of march the french released a paper on a small clinical trial of the drug with amazing results
At this point a lot of people got on board with it
Here is a brief scientific breakdown of it
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BIymfznD7YA

And then Trump backed it....

At that point the moderates and right had pretty much embraced it as one of the best options until a vaccine exists

By the left went off its rocker with false fact checking

1. It wouldn’t be approved for use for a year even if it worked
2. It has Extremely dangerous side effects
3. Its unproven...and doctors weren’t allowed to use it


1- well thats just bureaucratic nonsense that gets waived in situations like this
2- it has less side effects than drugs prescribed for lesser ailments... and as for overdoses, yes too much of many if not all drugs are bad..
3- this is just patently untrue... its safe enough that they prescribe it for non lethal ailments like arthritis... and its fda approved already.. it just needs to be tested for effectiveness on this illness

Thevtruth is the Dems just want a crisis to gain power back.. if this resolves quickly they lose November... thats all this is ....politics...
