Coronavirus

[The Nature Boy]

I think anyone looting a Trader Joe’s or target isn’t gonna give a shit about BLM or let alone wearing a F’ing mask.

It’s funny how you said protest “escalate” into riots and looting. There’s a lot of evidence that the protests do deteriorate into violence. I would use as an example that 17 yo shit head who thought it’s his duty to protect businesses with a semiautomatic. Yes, he was attacked, he was instigated, true, but when u stand around looking like a shit head with a semiautomatic, u may intimidate people.

However there’s a lot of evidence that the looting, and riots are being started by people who have no affiliation with BLM, lol.

It’s funny how a black dude running out of a target with a Samsung 65 inch is a BLM antifa affiliate, but the boys carrying torches and yelling “Jews will not replace us” have absolutely nothing to do with Trump?

Anywhoo since this is a covid thread,

Protest are reactionary. Sure they coulda found another way to show civil
Disobedience that may have been pandemic friendly but these movements were in a reaction to something. I don’t see them as in the same context as having campaign rallies which are planned, and coordinated

Schools, churches, and business can be open if the level of virus is down, but everyone has to play a part. You can’t have half the group saying it’s a hoax, fuck masks, I’m gonna do what I want. These fuckers make it hard for everyone else

Steven Miller tests positive. Now I feel even worse for his wife

No doubt. Since the virus is obviously aware of that important distinction as well, the "peaceful" protests should go on non stop.

 

[The Nature Boy]

Yes, as does your president

From what I understand is that the people of FLORIDA absolutely want to have COVID.

Quickly the elections for, yes that we continue the Football, but WITHOUT SPECTATORS.

I have never seen more stupidity in my life.

Quick, quick let's reach the 300,000 dead.

I don't see it that way. People will do what their leaders tell them to do. If their governor is telling them it's safe and we can all go to watch a live NFL game, you cant really blame the people that live there.

But is it safe?

 

[IamNY]

But is it safe?

It's funny, the other poster shits on Floridians and your asking me if it's safe. You can tell from my original post I didn't feel right about it. I'm just posting something related to coronavirus in the coronavirus thread. Your both so wound up from the political threads that your missing what I actually posted.

TGW,
No, I don’t know? What is rate of infection?

Look @ some north east states, they are lit up in red on infections rate maps, but in some states ur only goin from 1% to 2%, so still not bad, but gotta watch

Which has nothing to do with my original post. As far as infection rates, there's this new search engine called Google that might help.

I wouldn’t say it is totally out of control, this was to be expected with the opening up of businesses, stores, gyms schools etc...
Same thing is happening in Europe and many other places. It is called the second wave lol.
Quebec is taking measures to control it, we will see how effective it will be.
Yes it is excellent advise to stay home that is exactly what they are recommending and trying to enforce.

We don’t need to blame the US, why heap more blame on an already troubled nation.
We will let them figure out how not to be the world leader in deaths and infections.

 

[EagerBeaver]

The best way to control it is LOCKDOWN.

 

[Fradi]

The best way to control it is LOCKDOWN.

Yes it is, now all you need to do is convince 360 million people and us 36 million, such an easy task.

EB, I for one would like to see the border closed from any incoming Canadians because they refuse to take this pandemic serious. Their continued disregard for the science and common sense for slowing the spread of this disease is appalling to say the least. Keep them out!

 

[EagerBeaver]

It's fairly clear that if the Border wasn't closed, Quebec would be on the travel advisory list for Connecticut and probably all of the other Sensational 6 States. The list has 35 States/territories on it right now:

1. Alabama
2. Alaska
3. Arkansas
4. Colorado
5. Delaware
6. Florida
7. Georgia
8. Guam
9. Idaho
10. Illinois
11. Indiana
12. Iowa
13. Kansas
14. Kentucky
15. Louisiana
16. Minnesota
17. Mississippi
18. Missouri
19. Montana
20. Nebraska
21. Nevada
22. New Mexico
23. North Carolina
24. North Dakota
25. Oklahoma
26. Puerto Rico
27. Rhode Island
28. South Carolina
29. South Dakota
30. Tennessee
31. Texas
32. Utah
33. West Virginia
34. Wisconsin
35. Wyoming

EB
You keep holding up the sensational six as an example.
I am glad they have tremendously improved but overall they are anything but sensational in fact 4 of your sensational list have the worst death rate in the whole US.
Yes it happened in the beginning but even Florida hasn’t gotten close to New Jersey and New Yorks death rate ( death rate per 100,000 population) in fact Quebec which is hovering around 68 is close to Florida’s death rate.

U.S. COVID death rate by state 2023| Statista

As of March 2023, Arizona had the highest COVID death rate in the U.S., with 455 deaths per 100,000 population. Hawaii had the lowest death rate.

Make no mistake, no place got hit harder than NY, NJ and CT at the beginning of the pandemic, but no place has been better at controlling the virus since the first 2 months. It's because of good State level political leadership, a population responsive to that leadership, and tremendous medical care in all 3 states. It's not an exaggeration to say that NY, NJ and CT are the shining beacon States in the entire Western Hemisphere's Covid response. All States and Countries need to study and follow our lead. As Governor Cuomo said about the Tri State coordinated response, "history books will be talking about what we did for decades."

 

[Fradi]

EB,
Sorry but no. It is not time to follow states which have the worst record in the US.
It is great that you are so patriotic, but for once get real put aside your pride and face reality.
I wish it wasn’t so, half my family is in the US, but the US is leading the world in deaths, infections, it is a total cluster fuck what is still going on and now you have governors wanting to have 60,000 fans at a football game.
You have the Governor of New York undermining the Mayor every chance he gets. He had a huge hand in thousands of elderly dying in senior homes just like Quebec and Ontario had here.
You can try and spin this any way you want but all statistics all evidence points to exactly the opposite.

History books will be talking about it for years what a fuck up took place in the US during this pandemic, let’s hope they will also be talking about how the US came up with a vaccine that saved the world from more years and millions upon millions of deaths.

 

[The Nature Boy]

Would disagree with you Fradi,
Lots of guys talk about being able to run around and do whatever they want and that you will get the virus either way and that it won’t kill you. In NY, NJ, CT there is so little virus circulating people are enjoying a lot. And there’s little virus floating around. Not same case in other states. I couldn’t agree more with a lot of what Eb wrote.
