More on the virus

I read that article yesterday from the "scamdemic" guy. I actually find it harder to understand the mentality of people like this than the die-hard Trumpers.

He's smart enough, and non-arrogant enough to acknowledge the error of his previous way of thinking and the unnecessary suffering it has resulted in, and want to warn others, yet he wasn't smart enough to listen to the science and the warnings in the first place.

But I'm glad to see these types trying to get the message out, as the deniers will be more open, hopefully, to listening to someone like them, rather than the "lefties" and scientists. If it results in just 5 more people deciding that wearing a mask and distancing isn't the end of the world, nor a imposition on their freedom, that could result in many less infections.

I remember the first I heard of Covid-19 was on this webforum in a post by you, I thought in February??

If you think it is bad in the deep valley, look at Starr County.  The medical staff is now determining who gets treatment and who is sent home to die because no more beds.  

Hey but WTF, it's Starr County right so probably 95% Mexican.  You think Washington cares?

I believe the covid19 is here with us to stay. No vaccine but maybe some medications to ease the symptoms. It is the new flu, cold, dengue, malaria, etc. I'm not paying much attention to it anymore. I will wear a mask whenever I'm out until I'm told it is no longer necessary.

I am not worried about the virus because I know on October 31, 2020 the president of the US will announce that 341,000,000 vaccines will be delivered on Tuesday November 3. He is the Chosen One. He will save the world. The most hits on Twitter ever.

RIP Herman Csin.  Cause of death COVID-19.  Here is a recent foto of Republican Cain at the Trump Tulsa Rally.

I'd like to see a more inclusive photo. It kinda looks like a segregated audience. Social distancing by color?

Trump likes to keep his blacks where he can keep an eye on them.

Nah, he was just trying to keep the value of the white seating area up by putting all the Blacks in one spot.
Much like his philosophy on his real estate developments.  Just part of being a stable, genius businessman.

Joco appears to be the local hotspot. They should close the borders for a few weeks.
