The rest of the state have some sort limitations in place…
Those states do NOT have big population and their virus cases are recorded as small…
All are led by Republicans Governor’s who the White House has asked to impose something….
Their testing numbers are also small…
The Republican governors of Arkansas, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah and Wyoming have yet to impose stay-at-home orders for everyone in their states, despite some being urged to do so this week by Surgeon General Jerome Adams and White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, Bloomberg reports….
Trump just said “staying at home leads to death.”
Nice to know.
I am now working from home where I am punishing myself further by having Trump on in the background. This might be a version of hell.
So go outside for. few minutes CG…
Well an evangelical church in Louisiana tomorrow plans to have 2000 people in attendance.
Let’s see how many of them wind up dead compared to those who stay at home.
Maybe we don’t even need there restrictions.
At least that is the subtle theme of Fox News’s most popular commentator,Tucker Carlson.In a lengthy commentary ,Carlson poses some actually interesting and pertinent questions about the coronavirus ,it’s effects, transmission etc.Then proceeds to wonder why these questions haven’t been answered?
That’s easy,of course.Nobody knows.Dr Fauci continuously emphasizes that there is much unknown about this virus and that the “experts” are to an extent making it up as they go along,What would Carlson suggest?
Well,it turns out nothing really besides ”pa vague implication that perhaps these draconian measures aren’t necessary ,while conceding,albeit, grudgingly that he doesn’t know either.
But you see this is how the people like Carlson work.Hes has now planted in the minds of his viewers the idea that the “experts” might be wrong.To what end?Ahh there lay the real question.
The bottom line ,right now at least , is that the actions being taken appear to be having some effect as we seem to be reaching the “plateau” of infections or are we?See we don’t know that either.A “model” says so.The model also says there will be 61000 or so deaths.Is that right?Or could it be more or less?
Questions galore!
We hate uncertainty ,yet that is exactly what we have here, nothing but guesses ,some educated ,but with the caveat …we don’t really know.Unlike Carlson ,who seems to want to plant doubt into the minds of his audience ,to ends unknown, I suggest that we plow ahead on the street we’re on,questions and all.
Carlson and his ilk aside,anyone got a better idea?
42 Governor’s are making their own judgements to be prudent….
We’re on our own…
Trump & Co. don’t care..
