COVID19 hits Redneck Riviera

You actually believe those numbers? Have you spent any time in places like Singapore and Taiwan ( yes not Tawain)? They are totally fascist countries and are control freaks, if you believe the numbers out of there, goodluck with that!

Can you show they are false? Can you point to any indication they are false? I can for China. Your whining hand waving away points is noted, as well as your diversionary tactic in defending an incompetent in office

You can for China? How so? Have you lived there? I lived in SG for 6-7 years, seriously look at their numbers... you have no idea how SG is controlled by a single family and cronies!
 
"Because trump let the virus run wild for weeks, honey."

"All those people dying. Such a terrible failure."
"Honey you can't expect Democrats in leadership positions to make obvious choices for themselves. They need a Republican President to tell them exactly what to do."
 
Health officials say that one of the quickest ways to predict that is the sewer systems, surprisingly.
Apparently the virus material shows up in sewers first....about a week or so before people start winding up in hospitals.

Those poor rats!
 
You tell me?

George Floyd protest live updates: National Guard mobilizes

I see a lot more masks than the Redneck Riveria.
 
The idiots in my area have also resumed not observing social distancing. I saw a bunch of them having a yard get together yesterday with the kids all less than a foot from each other. Dumb

Same here in Indiana. In fact a swimming pool open to the public in Warsaw Indiana was taking group pictures. Local health inspector is quoted as saying we need to implement herd immunity.

But then this is the state that put Trump over the top in the primaries and I have people around me flying Trump flags.

I get stared when I go out with a mask on. I could care less.
 
When it comes to COVID, Trump is at war with his own government.

Words have consequences, and lack of direction when you are in a position that influences people is an action. There are actions that Trump could have taken as early as mid January that could have cut the death rate in half. Instead, he was calling it a 'democratic hoax'


It doesn't help if the CIC and VP are going out in public without masks. They're sending a message that hey we aren't concerned why should you be?
 
"Mama? Why is grandma dying?"

Trump has to get the economy going to win reelection. He doesn't care how many of his supporters die.

And you liberal democrats don't care how many people are out of work and losing jobs, businesses and homes.
 
Horse****.
What... you don't see the hypocrisy among leftwing posters on this site who basically ignore the epicenter of the problem and then post threads about the one guy in Missouri that did this, or the one guy in Florida that did that?

De Blasio and his government completely failed the people of New York. It took teachers about to walk off the job, and his health advisors ready to resign in protest to get him off his heels and start implementing measures to stop the spread. His reticent behavior cost thousands of lives in New York alone, not to mention the fact that it then spread from there to other cities all over the country.

The NYCTA didn't implement any commonsense safeguards for their employees and admonished those who tried to do so on their own - they had to stop much of the bus service because so many drivers and transit workers were out sick and essential workers were forced to pack themselves inside crowded subway cars... it was one screwup after another.
 
I see a lot more masks than the Redneck Riveria.

Both groups are acting stupidly, aren't they? It's a pandemic and they're both gathered in large numbers with saliva everywhere from yelling (riots) and swimming (Ozarks).
 
Bit crude, but I would not be surprised if there is a surge in Missiouri in 2 to 3 weeks because of that.

Isn't Missouri the same place where two hair stylists tested positive after serving 140 people in their salon?
 
And you liberal democrats don't care how many people are out of work and losing jobs, businesses and homes.

That says a lot about the state of our economic system that following precautions to save lives put so many livelyhood at risk.
 
How many people are partying in the Ozarks without social distancing?

One of many second waves coming in a few weeks. And there is no way any governor R or D could have planned for this.
 
I see the majority of people in those pictures wearing masks and, yes, too many who aren't.

So?

Masks are intended to be effective along with the 6 foot distancing rule. If your up in someones face who is a spreader, no cheap mask will help you.

Always an excuse to defend your dear leader. Give me a freaking break.

Same here. Businesses in Indiana have obeyed the restrictions pretty well, but average people have been ignoring them for weeks. My wife and I have been keeping the kiddo a good distance away from them, and I'm the only one of us going into stores.
 
What action could he have taken that would of cut the numbers in half?

Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

He could have in conjunction with the CDC and the NIH put together a nationally led plan to implement all the rules that eventually came out. He could not have silenced the CDC or fired certain people because they were warning him. He could have pushed the DPA like a serious leader and forced manufacturers to produce medical supplies.

He could have accepted the WHOs original test instead of refusing it because it would scare people.

He could have acted like an adult leader who cared about the American people instead of Me, Me, Me the Donald needs to get re-elected.

If that's not enough for you, I am sure I can come up with some more proven failures that cost American lives.
 

OK, I had to go thru several of those articles before I found what I wanted, even tho it's not confirmed. I had read that they were finding CV in waste water, but hadnt been able to learn if it remained communicable.

(By the way, don’t worry about catching the virus from sewer water; contaminated water is an unlikely route of infection. Plus, in the US, at least, wastewater treatment should destroy the virus just fine.)

One Way to Potentially Track Covid-19? Sewage Surveillance | WIRED

There's a huge difference between identifying and tracking a microbe in waste water and in that microbe retaining its virulence. They knew to look for polio in waste water, for example. But polio is a virus that retains its integrity in the human gut.

Enteric microbes survive in the human gut. CV isnt an enteric virus. (And it's not transmitted that way. If you eat a burger contaminated with CV, you wont catch CV from ingesting it.)

I was wondering if medical waste materials (such as discarded PPE, tubing, syringes, etc.) were carrying live CV into waste water systems. Because it's not likely it would survive in human waste...unless it's an enteric microbe human digestive acids kill almost everything else.

So I wanted to know if waste water would be another disease vector, another way CV could be transmitted. It looks like (but not confirmed) that it's not. Thankfully.





This is the barely coherent and grammatically inept speech of a man who desperately wants to be able to claim that he "cured coronavirus."

That's it, in a nutshell. When we do get a handle on this crisis, he wants to be able to pull out footage and declare "I called it! I said use this! I said try this! I told them to do this, it was my idea!" He's just doing it with lots of stupid stuff because he doesnt want to miss an opportunity. He's afraid 'the big one' will be mentioned and he wont get credit for it.

It's all about declaring himself the savior of the cv crisis and we'll hear all about it, esp in his campaign. (Which is basically each of his press briefings these days) --- Lursa

Using your logic of self accountability, why are you holding Trump responsible for the actions of others?

I don't hold trump responsible for anything because he doesn't. The buck stoppeth not there.

Sorry, I forgot to mention perhaps the most important thing. He could have told us the truth !!!

Did you see the no mask crowd at cocoa beach? That's not gonna end well either.

You can goon if you like but what you're suggesting is mostly unreasonable. You're suggesting he should of been taking actions that were recommended before they were recommended. You're criticizing him for not being nostradamus.
