Then why did the cases spike right after Labor Day and when the bars were forced to close the cases still remain high? I am sure people were still having parties on the low during the summer.

Never the big Orange asshole of Orange would have done that, he prefers to have good numbers for unemployment than good numbers in terms of deaths.This is obviously not their fault none of these people have a mind of their own they cannot be held responsible for their actions.
It is that fucking big Orange asshole‘s fault he should have known this. He should have closed down all airports locked down all cities during the Thanksgiving weekend and had the army declaring a curfew.
You have a one track mind and Donald fixation.Die my fellow citizens in your cars going to look for food.
The increase in fines is justified for the idiots you’ve described but the fines along with the sometimes ridiculous rules imposed on small businesses that play by the rules are out of line. Most of the small businesses in our region play by the rules and are rewarded with lockdowns, shutdowns, more restrictions etc. Governors are trying to fix complex problems with one broad stroke and it doesn’t work. Closing restaurants at 10 pm, closing gyms at 10 pm, does Covid only become an issue after 10 pm? I’m agreeing with what your saying, especially with the examples you have used, but our governors are killing the small businesses that are the very backbone of this country.Connecticut Governor Lamont has stopped short of a lockdown that will cripple small businesses, but yesterday announced a $10,000 fine for businesses not in compliance with State Covid rules:
.Governor Lamont Announces Fines for Businesses Violating COVID-19 Rules Increase To $10,000
Governor Ned Lamont today announced that he has signed an executive order increasing the amount that businesses can be fined for violations of the state’s COVID-19 sector rules and capacity limits to $10,000 per violation.portal.ct.gov
This is a case of the few bad apples spoiling things for everyone else. This is what always happens and you can't stop the bad apples or totally root them out. There have been a few highly publicized episodes of Covid noncompliance in CT, including by an underground club in the New Haven area which had 500 maskless persons in its parking lot watching a fistfight between 2 customers. It took local police 30 minutes to disburse the crowd. This kind of nonsense causes super spread clusters that can whip through a community.
Update:
Yesterday in the United States = 175,000 new cases and almost 2,200 deaths
The closest country is India = 35,000 new cases.
What are The United States doing for their dead? soon 260,000.
Over the summer India had nearly 100,000 new cases and 1,500 deaths but no mention about that here. But now that CNN has announced that Joe Biden is the president elect, the USA cases are at record highs. Shame on Biden for allowing this to get out hand. Let’s hope Biden doesn’t shit the bed when he distributes the vaccines from Trump’s initiative, Warp Speed.
I never said this is a joke. What is a joke is how you politicize everything and when you get called out on it you spin it to try and change the narrative. I pointed out how nobody was mentioning India when they had their crisis over the summer. The fact they are halfway around the world means nothing to the USA/canada since our border is closed. Yes, many are hospitalized in the USA, but with the therapeutics that the USA has developed and the protecting of our seniors (NY excluded) along with people that have co morbidities many will survive. But many more lives will be saved because of Operations Warp Speed. When the vaccine becomes available to you (America First) you can then protest by stepping aside because of your political beliefs and let someone else get the vaccine. Put your money wear your mouth is.This is not a joke it is very serious.
For the disclosure. I have dual citizenship so I can talk about both countries as my own. The reason that Canada does not have much high tech is simple. Everything technologically decent is sucked down south. There are numerous examples especially after WWII. Sometimes US big corporation deliberately destroys Canadian high-tech that does not want to surrender or is starting an alternative cooperation with Europe. Bright young people move south in masses. In the opposite direction it just a trickle. The question is why US can’t just help the northern brother? US wouldn’t even notice some additional 20-30 million doses.So why would the Canadian not have worked on vaccine production facilities the last few months.
