Churches Were Eager to Reopen. Now They Are Confronting Coronavirus Cases.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

We don't know. The reason we don't know: No contact tracing. More bungling by the Trump adminstation.

Even when you try to be cute... it merely highlights more Trump bungling.

Why would they be contact tracing for churches and not stores? That seems like targeting to me.

We're not at war in Vietnam. What a stupid comparison.

Would you consider the 2nd highest death rate per capita in the country an accomplishment by a competent government? Yes or no.

False question that has nothing to do with Vietnam either.

I think New York did what anyone knew to do at the time. What would you have done different? Lay it out.

I would not have forced long term care facilities/nursing homes to accept covid positive patients.

(facepalm) They would contract tracing for both. That is what contract tracing is.

Back when New York was peaking, yeah there was a lot of incompetence at the mayor, governor and presidential levels. If "forcing nursing homes to accept covid patients" is the only thing you'd change, then you'd have been just as incompetent.

The difference today is that a lot of states haven't learned from what worked and didn't work for New York back in April. This is July and Texas finally is mandating masks and the President is finally wearing one. There's really little to no excuse for Texas, Arizona and Florida being this ridiculously incompetent.

What's California's excuse?

Everyone who's contracted COVID and/or died of it did so after doing something.

So in their entire lives they did nothing else? Ever?

So being in hospital worse than being in church?

no excuse, just stupid s, like in all red states, not following guidance.

You just said they weren't, ass wipe.

But okay; tell us the cases from grocery stores, Wal Mart, etc.

If you die, blake, it'll be because you ate too much McDonalds. The COVID boogeyman isn't why.

Blue state, they get the stern talking to.

They have none. Neither do most of the three dozen states that waited way too long to impose mask rules.

I haven't looked but I think Florida still doesn't.

"Florida health officials reported Sunday a staggering record of new cases in a single day: 15,300. If Florida were a country, it would be the fourth highest in the world in reporting new cases. The state would rank 10th in the list of nations with the most cases, according to data from Johns Hopkins University data...."

Why keep mentioning world rankings when so many countries either under report or don't report at all? You act like it means something factual.

[DMC]

Also NY has 3x the deaths that Florida, Texas and Arizona have COMBINED, yet NY is doing things right.

Just perspective. If you want to dismiss it you can.

Wait, I thought Trump was a fault? What guidance and are you saying the states have a choice to not follow guidance? how can that be since the President controls all states?

How do you explain New York hitting zero? Luck?
