Birx and Fauci don't want this to end, prior to Covid did anyone even know who they were?

Fauci wants to throw out another pitch for a baseball game.

They are the more virulent virus.

Also, I got $150 on the Vols winning over 5 games this season... if they get a game cancelled, the bet is scrubbed. Not feeling too confident in JG or, well, any part of team at all these days.

SAD! BAD!

How's that bet looking?

Many people haven't necessarily relied on the government and have suffered acutely from the virus.

They suffer acutely based on their own choices...... some choices(work) maybe be harder to protect ones self from this but all other instances..... the individual can protect their self from this virus and it’s really not that difficult to do.....

Ignorant and biased

So in your opinion why was he not re-elected?

BAD! SAD!

But my bet on Biden more than made up for it ($2,250).

At the end of the day and after 85,000+ posts in this thread, this has always been the case. We all can argue all we want about the efficacy of shutdowns and mask mandates and infringement on civil liberties, etc...but if you are under 50 and healthy, which is the majority of this country, then this virus is a non-issue.

This has nothing to do with "wanting to kill grandma". This virus is going to do what it is going to do. We can't stop it, and we are far past the point where we need to "flatten the curve". This is what it is. If you are in the high risk group, it is up to you to mitigate your risk. There is nothing everyone else can do that will stop this virus. Again, it is going to move forward no matter what we do. It will run through the population and then we will move on.

The fear porn needs to stop and we need to report on this like adults and a mature, informed public.

Exactly right. And after your post there really isn't a need for anymore posts in this thread because you my friend nailed it.

I don't think anyone is denying there's an actual virus but they're questioning the response to it by those in charge. We've seen hypocrites from all levels over government, including the president and there is the problem. We were told we couldn't have gatherings while people protested in the thousands, we were told we had to close dinning while those in control continued to do so, we were told not to travel while the elite traveled the globe. The virus is very real, it has effected several people however it has given power hungry people a chance to expand their power.

Sometimes leadership and power are synonyms Had the supposed national leader stepped up this wouldn’t be this bad. The reason the US leads the world on CIVID and all the wrong statistics concerning it is a lack of consistent unified leadership

So I am hearing flu cases are way down because of all the mask wearing and social distancing. Also hearing covid cases are way up because no one wears masks or social distances.

Got it.

I totally agree. What I would have liked to have seen is a similar approach to China, where we gave Trump unlimited authority and control of the military to enforce sensible rules.

Possibly but the toxicity on both sides didn't help, Trump hating the left and the left hating Trump. If one said go left the other would say go right, so that blame falls on both sides.

Then why play the games at all? Is it that critical to know if the blue team can garner more points than the red team?

$$$$$

You cut off the presentation and didn’t portray the data I consider more relevant. Deaths per confirmed cases. The rate had dropped from 5.8 % ( average) early on to 2.1% (average) just before the recent surge (predicted). Based on total deaths divided by total cases. But that rate on a daily basis is and will continue to be in the upswing

The catcher needs to move first base so he might have a chance to catch it.

Had he won the re-election there would have been no need to give that power to him. He just would have taken it by proclamation. It seems you would have cheered him on together with convicted felon Mike Flynn along with quite a few others on here but fortunately you collectively are fringers. Fortunately it seems most of the military thinks he’s a low life grifter too

Your lucky though your blind loyalty would have been thrown under his bus whenever his need arose

We are by no means the only ones going through an upswing.
