    There "are" a number of anecdotes...
    Do you say things like "four are a number"?

    I'll believe you if you say you do.

    There is a number.

    There are anecdotes.

    But sure, if you think you're right read it that way. I'm fine with it. Maybe look up a usage guide if it's important to you. I'll accept whatever it says and I could certainly be wrong.

    So you think the 57,000,000 school children are all going to wear masks all the time?

    How many dead children are acceptable to you?

    Devoss is fine with about 10,000.

    either "there is a number of anecdotes" or "there are numbers of anecdotes

    number(s) is operative, not anecdotes

    Leaving The Pandemic Response To States Doomed The Country To Fail Together

    From Florida to Texas, coronavirus cases are climbing in nearly 40 states across the U.S.

    https://www.huffpost.com/entry/pande...wsltushpmgnews

    Wannabe Macho Man Big Shot Trash got bullied by the pandemic,

    and he ing quit even trying to "punch back 10x harder"

    slithering away and leaving the pandemic up to the states with no Federal guidance,

    because he's the classic LESS chicken bully,

    Trash punches, and punches back, only when he has totally risk-free superiority

    Trash could have had (a better chance of ) a 2nd term

    if USA's curve looked like all the other countries here

    your happytalk "belief" and "confidence",

    it's totally useless against the pandemic

    How will you communicate, transmit your guidelines to 10Ks of school districts?

    Any Federal $$$ to help schools (and health care) operate in the pandemic?

    As long as you kill them before birth it's okay.

    In short, if I say, "There is a number of reasons written on the paper," expect to see a figure such as 5, 12, or 67. If I say, "There are a number of reasons written on the paper," expect to see the reasons themselves. And if I say, "There's a number of reasons written on the paper," well, it really depends on just how casual I'm being with my speech — but don't expect me to use it in earnest in formal written English. There are a number of reasons I wouldn't.

    Another tweet and can't and won't bother reading.

    Devoss said that something like .02% of kids would be killed. I put a number to it.

    11,400 dead children

    That is the acceptable figure for the adminstrations stated policy goal, stated explicitly by the administration official in charge of that area.

    The tweet is the head of the CDC saying it's a greater health risk to keep kids out of school than sending them. Saying you can't read them is lazy. Copy and paste the link in a new window after you quote me and say you "can't" read it.

    Is the CDC or the Trump Administration doing anything to make schools safer, or it just wishing them well from afar?

    Doesn't work either. Not sure why and don't particularly care to bother with tweets. I am actually pretty darn happy I can't see them, so that isn't going to change.

    from someone saying what the administration tells them to. another ing fail from your failed heros failure of an administration.

    What is the administration plan to keep kids safe?

    I'm sure there is some well-reasoned, thoughly detailed set of guidelines.

    Either produce a detailed thorough set of guidelines for safety, or it is another concrete, irrefutable example of bungling by the con man whose boots you lick.

    as opposed to;

    letting them live long enough to take their health care away and THEN watch them suffer and die?


    no better

    So now, instead of going to experts at the CDC...

    Hospitals have to report directly to the Trump administration in Washington. I am going to guess this is the first step in absolutely politicizing the data, and selectively presenting it, with the actual data hidden from the public.


    Trump administration orders hospitals to send coronavirus data to Washington, not the CDC

    You've been wrongdomGuy the whole time. Kids were going to school for 3 months before shut downs. Kids are going back to school all over the world.

    Your math is terrible.

    You have said Texas would be out of hospitals by last Monday.

    Even more worrisome. The data WON'T be made public.



    This is an absolutely inexcusable move by the Trump administration.

    A dangerous new chapter of the outbreak:

    Every state for itself

    Cash-strapped cities and states trying to create testing, tracing and public awareness campaigns from scratch are desperate for federal support.

    Leaving the nation's coronavirus fight to individual states has created gaping holes in the public health response that have allowed the infection rate to soar and death rates to rise once again.

    While countries like

    New Zealand and Germany have taken a unified national approach to fighting the virus

    — and are enjoying the fruits of a successful mitigation strategy

    — the Trump administration’s federalist philosophy has helped create chaos across the South and West.

    “Every governor is out there on his or her own working to build the same programs that are being built next door,”

    “The federal government’s efforts range from a little bit of backup to not even being present.”

    “Until we control this virus as a nation, the economy can’t fully recover. Where is the national plan?”

    “How can you have national success without having a national plan?”

    “How do you fight the worst pandemic in 100 years without a coordinated strategy?”

    public health experts say much more federal support and leadership are needed to bring the outbreak under control — and keep it that way.

    “We shut down the country for three months and we could have used that time for all kinds of planning and preparing, and we did not use it at all,” iow, shutdown WASTED.

    the virus is spreading northward into the heartland and industrial Midwest, erasing the progress made in March, April and May while the country was locked down.

    Pence, have warned that the government’s Strategic National Stockpile is only a stopgap —

    and that states themselves are primarily responsible for securing masks, gowns, gloves and chemicals for testing on the open market.


    the lack of stronger federal oversight has made it hard to maintain some of those gains.

    labs say they are having trouble getting basic supplies.

    Oregon Gov. Kate Brown says her state's testing capacity has been overwhelmed by the recent surge in infections

    the federal government’s failure to fully use the Defense Production Act to increase available supplies and coordinate their distribution has put states like Washington in the “horrible position” of competing against one another

    The testing problems are also hampering the country’s scattered and overwhelmed contact tracing efforts.

    “You need federal leadership, and that’s been lacking,”

    Testing and contact tracing are the cornerstones of the test-trace-isolate strategy that governments have used to thwart infectious disease outbreaks since the 19th century.

    the shortage of tracers is allowing the state’s outbreak to spiral out of control.

    the lack of coordinated national coronavirus messaging has been compounded in states like Texas where governors, following Trump’s lead, took a laissez faire approach until cases skyrocketed.

    “There’s just been a leadership void at the federal level,”

    “We have pushed everything down to the states and

    then conservative states, like Texas, have just pushed all that decision-making down to the local level. …

    Every day that we go with a crisis and without a plan is another day lost.”

    Trash wants no testing, so of course no DPA to support testing
