Trump should high five with the task force in a final presser and take credit for saving America. We did it guys.
Coronavirus task force wrapping up...

I agree. If you look at this objectively, you can't deny that the real action we need is asking people to change deeply ingrained habits, beliefs, customs, etc. People send their kids sick to school everyday with no concern about the kid in class that is a brittle diabetic for whom a stomach bug can be life threatening. Our society and laws aren't set up to handle a crisis like this and americans desperately want a normal life and the freedom to travel, eat out, go to concerts/sporting events, etc. Countries that stomp on civil liberties are much better suited to handle this.
Never trump crowd now realizing they have 4 more years of the orange man and it's drives them crazy
Good. They should wrap it up and let's get back to work....virus more dangerous for olders, obese, and those with respiratory issues. So, let's protect them and get back to being GREAT again. I guess the Dem's think Sleepy/Creepy or the Crooked One could have done better, LOL.
The idea of testing mass populations as a strategy to mitigate is a farce. You can be negative today and positive tomorrow. The folks that say we need to test X million per day or week are just grasping at some theoretical excel model. Unless you are going to test essentially the population of the US that is mobile each day, its not going to matter. You're pissing in the wind and wasting tests and capacity.
Targeted testing with contract tracing could work. But there isn't a contract tracing system designed yet that would stop an outbreak in an large urban environment. "You're negative on Tuesday, positive on Friday. Now we have to find everyone you rode the subway with Wednesday and Thursday and test them."
So what you do is test the vulnerable population early, often and then test them again. Test healthcare workers and people that work with vulnerable populations early often and then test them again (using a combination of rapid test and non rapid testing). Test folks that have large interactions with the public to prevent a local outbreak. Then you learn to live with the prevalence rate of COVID in the population.
Yes sir.
Let's watch the hospitalizations number. In the end that is what really matters. If people get it and stay home for recovery, that is a win for everyone.
Dead on. Only issue I have is even this ("Test folks that have large interactions with the public to prevent a local outbreak"), is likely impossible.
I'd like to see you sterilized so you don't spread your stupidity through procreation.
LOL. In a fight dumpy butt Donny would be about as worrisome as a cloudy day.
I will add one more thing to the discussion. The reason we shut the economy down was to prevent the hospitals (and available ventilators) from being overcome and people dying at home. In areas where there are empty beds and plenty of supplies, they should open up some and then see what happens.

and forgive us, there are people out there that believe trump is the only person who can save us from a global cabal of child molesting liberals, so its not a leap to thing someone might think trump could beat people up.
Protect the vulnerable and let everyone else go about their lives and develop herd immunity. That’s the safest thing for the vulnerable whether they develop a vaccine or not and Covid has already mutated so a vaccine is far too iffy to wait on. We already have hydroxycloroquine with zinc and Z-pac to treat patients.

This thing has me, and many people I work for, a lot of whom are at least as smart as me and many much more educated, scared. (Economies) equals people feeding themselves and the ones they support. What is happening now around the world is creating an unprecedented economic collapse that will cause exponentially more deaths than the virus, and worse it will allow the elite to have more power over many many more people who have no other choice than to submit to the powers that be.
It’s becoming clearer to me over time that many of these elites know that, and are deliberately continuing to use this, to drive more and more into poverty and thus will give them more power.
no problem. I’m in a rare situation. I talk to more than fifty people a week here in the upstate and my clientele are mostly wealthy and educated. Quite a few are doctors and people in the finance world. Although I’m a blue collar college dropout I’ve scored as high as 44 on the wonderlic. Not bragging just saying I analyze things everyday and I’m not a genius but I use my brain every day analyzing complex problems to feed my family.
