"Their next hoax" Yup. Trump spoke in a secret code that only his supporters have access to. Pretty cool that you figured it out.

What a shock that the first team to blow up is from Florida. I'm amazed. Just heard on sports radio today that they had been positive for the virus BEFORE the game and played anyways? Maybe the state's cavalier attitude towards the virus rubbed off on them.

I don't remember the left getting angry at Trump for banning travel as part of the pandemic response. It's because it didn't happen. They said we would probably get mad on their news networks at the time because it was just like the muslim ban, except that people didn't because it wasn't.

But California was already included in the original analysis I posted as one of the states with a full mask mandate. And at that time it already had an increase in cases. The trend I posted was already taking that into account. If you have a multi-state study that shows a different result, please share it.

I don’t remember anyone actually accusing Trump of being racist over restricting travel from China. I remember him being called a racist because he continued to call it the China/Wuhan virus, but that's it. 3

Pretty cool that you figured it out. I mean, kinda. He rabbles gibberish at mach speed and dribbles out keywords that they latch onto, and then he backs it up with actions that would support the position he wanted to take (like publicly pushing back on requests for PPE). It's pretty clear that the only people that believe this isn't a real problem belong exclusively to one political party. “Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus, you know that, right?” he said. “Coronavirus, they’re politicizing it. We did one of the great jobs. You say, ‘How’s President Trump doing?’ They go, ‘Oh, not good, not good.’ They have no clue. They don’t have any clue. They can’t even count their votes in Iowa.” Then the president, who often dismissed special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation as a hoax, continued, “They tried the impeachment hoax. That was on a perfect conversation. They tried anything. They tried it over and over. They’d been doing it since you got in. It’s all turning. They lost. It’s all turning. Think of it. Think of it. And this is their new hoax.” Edited July 27, 2020 by BullBuchanan

You know, for a guy that claims this isn't about "politics," you really haven't shut up about it.

More to the point, my original post said that if we had instituted a national mask policy early on we would have gotten it under control. I don't think the data I'm showing does a good enough job of showing that. This data shows how we're able to get an ongoing outbreak under control. And in one sense you're obviously right - at this point it is a little too late for one policy to end the pandemic. These things needed to be done before it turned into an outbreak. If states can lower their new case rate by an average of 25% with one simple policy, imagine what we could have done if we had instituted that policy well before we had thousands of new cases per day.
Matt_In_NH Posted July 27, 2020 Posted July 27, 2020 Too bad we did not have a coordinated national response. Hopes for an nfl season are going down.

It was brilliant, in a hamfisted way. “The states have to figure it out.” Take credit if they do, lay blame if they don’t. 1
Mr. WEO Posted July 27, 2020 Posted July 27, 2020 This is like wandering into a "Flat Earth" thread on PPP. It's so tempting to keep jumping in, but it's an exercise in futility. 3

No body took it that way until a bunch of irresponsible journalists desperate to make Trump look bad took his quote out of context and tweeted it without context. It would have been a non-story but for the media’s response. 1

dpberr Posted July 27, 2020 Posted July 27, 2020 The MLB will fold the season in 30 days. Just enough time for a decent insurance claim for the owners and for some players to reach the playing time milestones in their contracts.

Well, my wife is in the Teacher’s Union, so it was at the top of my mind. Im saying your comment is stupid because you are advocating that misrepresenting people’s statements to stoke fear is good.
