Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

[Orange_Vol1321]

Looking at this stuff from the local level, of Sevierville, I can see what's being pushed. I posted Thursday that my niece had a 102.5 temp and a bad sore throat. UT urgent care referred my sister to the health department. They had them come in for the drive in testing.

Here's my problem. They only tested her for the coronavirus and it isn't the rapid test so it's going to be Tuesday for the results. Meanwhile they didn't test for the flu or for strep throat. I think the strep test is like 5 minute result and the flu is 15 minute result.

The problem is strep throat can have major complications if not treated with antibiotics. Is this how every single person is being tested? To me, you'd give all three tests and could possibly rule out waiting 5 days plus get someone antibiotics that needed it.

What do you think motivated them to make that statement? Concern for people or for their pocketbook?

What do you think motivated Trump to make that statement? Concern for people or being re-elected (pocketbook)?

Wow, just wow. The dumbassery of some never ceases to amaze me (i.e. read a majority of posts on this forum).

It’s making “Stay home on Election Day” more attractive everyday.

President Trump will be relelected in November

If this isn't fake, which I would almost 99.9% guarantee it is, good riddance if it kills them. Peoples got to be so f kin stupid.

Darwin at its best.

My favorite part of the whole thing was Lysol making a statement..... that shows just how big of an idiot they feel we are.

Well, people eat tide pods and think the earth is flat so perhaps it is necessary.

Trump was just being Trump.

My only edit would be to use the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme song when the video goes to Birx at the end.

They were actually scared that some of the red hats were dumb enough to drink Lysol and they're probably not wrong.

That part is pretty obvious. My question was more to the point they could care less if some idiot drinks Lysol and dies as long as they’re not gonna get sued over it or lose market share.

Irony .. is when you make fun of group of people for not being able to think on there own , right before you pull the lever to put Joe Biden into office and try to excuse it with “ it’s just gaffes or Blue no matter who” .

Speaking personally, it’s more about removing Trump than voting for Biden.

Ok, so now the true test of the Red Hat Brigade: will they drink the bleach?

Sweden 40 deaths today.

Many countries dont report data well Friday-Tuesday. So for comparison let's just look at the previous Saturday for Sweden which was 111.

This is brought over from the memes thread because I didn’t want to reply there.

What Trump said was absolutely stupid. I don’t care what the excuse is. However, the parody of his stupidity is actually becoming more dangerous than what he actually said. He never mentioned any brand by name and never “told” anyone to do anything. It’s almost like people are sitting around hoping and baiting someone to do one of these things with the sole purpose of blaming the president.

Don’t repeat what the president said, it might dangerous for your health.

(Or you know, make him look more like the idiot he is)

Okay... now when you watch that video, do you see anything being distorted by the media? No, Trump's own words are allowed to speak for themselves. Is Trump trolling the reporters? No, Trump isn't even speaking to the reporters in the room. He is looking directly at Dr. Birx and asking her questions. Is Trump speaking sarcastically while asking Dr. Birx questions? Take a good look at the expression on that woman's face. She doesn't look amused, and frankly, looks like she would rather be just about anywhere else.

That is a great ad because it doesn't provide commentary or need to distort anything. Trump looks like a complete airhead on his own. He doesn't need anyone's help to look like an idiot.

Gonna be another crying day by the libs. Pro tip: take a day off and get some fresh air.

Swapping a businessman for life long politician when we come out of this shut down is how we are going to roll ? Ok I’m game , but don’t run off .. I have a feeling this is going to get interesting for everybody .

Oh that was me, stained T's, bleached hair and US Flag cowboy hat or leggings is the preferred uniform of someone who would scream at a nurse.

I’m having a hard time understanding the rage directed at medical workers. I guess I can’t reach the level of ignorance required.

We should stop protecting those people from themselves

Aw. You assume I make good money. That’s the nicest mean thing you’ve ever said to me.

No it's not. I know I have said much nicer "mean" things. Go ahead and search my posting history.

This.

Then take a swim in the deep end

 

[0nelilreb]

Its not like Republicans have a choice, It's the party of Trump. Nobody expected Republicans to think for themselves anyway.

Don’t you mean .. no “democrat “ expects republicans to think for themselves? It’s the same way Reps feel about Dems . Round and round we go .

Counts the same.

You sure seem obsessed with red hats dying from coronavirus or doing something dumb to avoid it when literally its almost all democrats doing those things. You probably just need to worry more about yourself.
