A few weeks ago, I had a waiter in Utah tell me that more people have died of abortions than Covid-19.

Yikes. Not exactly polite dinner conversation.

Robert Redfield (head of CDC) to the Senate committee today:

"...I might even go so far as to say that this facemask is more guaranteed to protect me against COVID than when I take COVID vaccine."

The inconsistency of messaging of this administration is so frustrating and maddening.  Plus now I am sure months down the road, no one will read into the vaccine side of this attempt at stressing importance and misinterpret its meaning.

I get what he is trying to say, but that sounds very off the cuff.  Anyone running messaging for the CDC probably cringed when he said that.

The United States Postal Service drafted an ambitious proposal in April to send a pack of five face masks to every residential address in the U.S. before trump killed the idea, according to an analysis by the Washington Post of documents acquired by the watchdog organization American Oversight.


I keep telling you guys he is intentionally killing people. Negligent manslaughter.

That is what catastrophic leadership has done to America. The worst crisis leadership in our history.

I only skimmed the article, but didn’t we have barely enough masks for healthcare professionals at that time? Did we have that many masks to distribute to households?

There weren't enough N95 masks...but general cloth masks have always been available (or could be quickly made).

I guess you shouldn't yell fire in a theater that is actually on fire because you could create panic.

Obviously entirely unsurprising, but this story made me as mad as any that's come out on the pandemic.

In some countries , they'd cut your balls off for idiotic statements like this. We have, thus far, freedom of speech. God bless America, aina?

Simple question.

Have trump’s lies and his refusal to push for masks caused people to die of Covid?

A simple yes or no will do.

Yes.

But you know what you’re saying and why you are saying it. Using this board to backdoor your political mantra makes this unreadable.
