Could've been a lot shorter if the Prez didn't up early. Other countries that did the right thing early are not locked down.

What a stupid thread
So we'll put these deaths also on the incompetent administration tally.
TSA: Can you answer your own question and support it in your own words, or are you a just sock puppet for the right wing Twitterati?
what happened to
"pull yourself up by the bootstraps" toughness?
Jesus, Trump even ed up ethanol production.
Magical thinking in high places got us here. Failure to contain COVID-19 and the ensuing lockdown are both on the Trump administration.
Hasty relaxation of mitigation invites more outbreaks, more sickness and death, and more lockdowns.
Fauci today:
The U.S. should at least double coronavirus testing in the coming weeks before easing into reopening the economy, the government's top infectious disease expert said Saturday.
National Ins ute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci said the U.S. now churns through about 1.5 million to 2 million tests a week.
"We probably should get up to twice that as we get into the next several weeks, and I think we will," he said during the National Academy of Sciences annual meeting.
Public health experts have called for increased testing to get a clearer picture of the pandemic's scope, as well as to identify, isolate and trace contacts for infected patients.
High rates of positive results could mean there's not enough testing, Fauci said, adding that those should cons ute "maybe less than 10 percent." The U.S. currently is seeing positive rates closer to 20 percent.
Adequate testing should "get those who are infected out of society so that they don’t infect others," he said.
Fauci warned public health groups not to get fixated on the number of tests needed. What's more important is whether "you have enough tests to respond to the outbreaks that will inevitably occur as you try and ease your way back into the different phases," he said.
Rapidly scaling up testing could be complicated by supply chain challenges, and will require careful national coordination, as POLITICO has reported.
Fauci emphasized that his comments applied to diagnosing active infections and not to the antibody tests that can reflect if a patient was previously infected with the virus.
The U.S. has seen more than 915,500 cases and over 51,600 deaths, Fauci noted during the webcast.

We know what needed to be done... is what we're trying to do now. Late certainly better than never.
We are? Trump said we don't need testing to open.
Possibly. But I know that 5G certainly will kill a lot more people than both combined. And the hoax virus will be to blame. Those that protested against the government's totalitarian actions will be shamed on. MSM is already warning us of more deaths to come by this "fall." 5g killswitch
Boy if it wasn't for this lockdown I'd be eating out every night and going to the movies later and then bought my Rammstein tickets too.
If I had the answer I wouldn’t have posed the question. And what the does this have to with right wing Twitter when articles in the thread are from Reuters, NYT, and the Guardian?
blaming Trump for a worldwide problem
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Hundreds of thousands of children could die this year due to the global economic downturn sparked by the coronavirus pandemic and tens of millions more could fall into extreme poverty as a result of the crisis, the United Nations warned on Thursday.
The world body also said in a risk report that nearly 369 million children across 143 countries who normally rely on school meals for a reliable source of daily nutrition have now been forced to look elsewhere.
This is all fine and good but I don't pass on my commuting risk to others just because I spoke to them.
Yep, testing and more testing. It's much cheaper than locking down and hospitalization. I'd say its' cheaper than everyone getting PPE every ing day.
He's mishandling of the pandemic in the US made an outsized contribution to the worldwide recession.
The oil prices had nothing to do with it.
The first tweet mentions specifically 4.4 million newly unemployed. Is that 'the world' unemployed? No, he's referring to the US. So I was addressing the US.

As far as the world is concerned, it's a ing massive pandemic, a once in a generation event. Of course there's going to effects from it.
You are here reading it
Stay out if you think so
Testing and contact tracing... but yes, testing is super vital. It provides the actual data to make such decisions.
Says who ?
The great chump and liberal media
Lol
Where did I say that?
Link?
And frankly, difficult to distance the World Economy without actually talking about the US economy. Just a state like California alone has the economic size of most smaller countries out there.
