I finally got to see my father yesterday. First time in five months. As my mother and I are walking out, one of the staff started chatting us up (my mother is familiar with nearly all the staff in the facility). The caregiver said to me that it was terrible what is happening to the people in the nursing homes. I responded that Cuomo made a mistake and everyone has to pay for it. She vehemently agreed. I do not think anyone who has a relative in a NYS nursing home, has someone who died “with” or “from” COVID-19 in a nursing home, someone who works in a nursing home, or has one or two degrees of separation from any of those, thinks Cuomo did/is doing a “good job.” 1 1 2

Airports are freaking depressing ..for someone who used to travel a ton, they are just depressing. Although must say the boarding and deplaning process is much more civilized and should take permanent hold. Still have dolts lining up in queue even though they call by rows now. And still have a few idiots jump out in the aisle and run towards the front to deplane...but overall nice process.We were on Delta, so no middle seats...poor mans first class! People use the potties onboard much less, everyone masked up start to finish..overall some positive aspects. Prepacked snack pack with bottle of water, cookies, and nuts. The airports though ..man feels like ya doing something wrong. No buzz, no energy like normal. But Delta club had pour your own draft at one lounge, and Wicked Weed IPA here in the ATL, and the B gate club is about 30 % of capacity... This is that "new normal" they want. Its Socialism. You just haven't realized it yet. Extrapolate what you just saw all over the country. We've been warning you since 15 days became "until the virus is gone."

No. I think it was intentional. he demanded they go to the homes. Even when the homes told him the dangers posed to the patients he still demanded Edited August 4, 2020 by fansince88 1

It’s terrible reporting and they have been doing this for over 3 weeks now. It states it plainly in the article that this count is over “multiple weeks”. Take it for what it’s worth.

Big Blitz Posted August 5, 2020 Posted August 5, 2020 1 hour ago, B-Man said: Bingo! I've gotten in to so many discussions about the virus and our response to it with a buddy of mine; not a lib, more a moderate Dem that just hates Trump. And every time we start taking about the virus and our response vs other countries, what the end game is etc, suddenly he's asking me why Trump is polling so bad? Why is his approval so low? I'll say the schools should be open there is no hiding from this. The kids are safe. If you don't want to work, take the year off. Or, when I tell him locking down is pointless and question the mask wearing and I'll say look at Australia locking back down. Virus gonna virus. And he'll respond with "then how come Trump is losing support among his base?" I'm like....wth? What does any of the logic and data behind the virus have to do with Trump's polling?? Its freaking insane. But this is so spot on. They are rooting for cases.....they are rooting for death and chaos.....they are convinced it's why Trump will lose. There have been lots of moments I knew this virus should not be taken as seriously as we are and that the draconian measures are a complete joke. All of them. The masks. The mandated 6 feet. The capacity limits. All of them. This might be the moment at the top of the list: I was done right there. 1
Big Blitz Posted August 5, 2020 Posted August 5, 2020 (edited) The Republicans should have been saying from the get go, "The Swedes are approaching this the right way." Where in history is the scientific evidence what Dems want to do actually works? Where? All we have is theories and studies being conducted during the pandemic trying to do what we can.......but the politics just can't help itself here. We knew in mid April who was most at risk. But Democrats and the media wanted to continue a uniform nationwide shutdown. Trump wanting to open on Easter!?? Omg no! There wasn't even virus in Texas. Or Arizona. Didn't emerge until late freaking June. What exactly were states like these doing for 2 plus months other than watching their economies tank. Every state in the union minus the NE should have reopened in early April. It would have solidified trust needed further in the pandemic. How is it not obvious to everyone whenever we actually leave our houses and "reopen" they'll be more "cases!" But this is ok now. We know who is at risk. We have a bunch of professional athletes testing positive for Corona, have zero symptoms, and they can't play. Why? How are you not at the point yet where it is so obvious that none of them are going to be hospitalized let alone die. And this is true for 99.99% of the population under 55 and healthy. Not only that, but evidence continues to mount that 80% of us have some or a lot of immunity to it. That's why the models were all wrong----Cuomo said that btw. If you are at risk, YOU just treat everyone like they have it and take precautions. Lay low. Dont go out to eat if you so choose. Dont get on a plane. Offer these folks and those with comorbidities the option to telework. This should be where the entire world is by now. But it shouldn't surprise us the very people that think they can control the temperature of the Earth, think they can micromanage an airborne virus. That is peak humans 2020.
