Biden's Coronavirus adviser wants a nationwide four to six week shut down.

Meanwhile, jobless claims fell another 33,250 this week, to the lowest level since March.


Anyone wanting a shutdown is just admitting we can really do nothing but must show the sheep that we are "doing something."

Reality remains must wait for herd immunity.

It appears the election night gathering at the White House was ANOTHER superspreader event.

Corey Lewandowski is the latest one to test positive.

Karma....

Good, that means people and businesses are adapting to the changes, and a stronger economy can better handle the strain.

You are pretty close to Cochise stronghold, it is easy to see how they could hide up in there. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g31307-d268570-Reviews-Cochise_Stronghold_A_Nature_Retreat-Pearce_Arizona.html

Virus is decimating the economy and our standard of living
Took a walk on Main St , downtown Bisbee AZ
1/2 the businesses closed due to the virus
On the flip side
My cousin in Taiwan eats out all the time
Huge 10k concerts in Taipei with no social distancing
Taiwan's economy has grown during this worldwide virus
The future of a countries standard of living is now directly tied to this virus

And for the next ~70 days we have a President who is going to do absolutely nothing about it. He’s just going to sulk, eat fast food, and watch tv.

Yawn...what needs to get done? Here is your list America:

Wear a mask (I bought 50 more KN95 masks on Amazon just the other day)
Wash your hands often (hand sanitizer is widely available to help while you're on the road)
Socially distance whenever you can
& wait for a vaccine availability in early 2021

I don't need Trumpie, Fauchi or Biden to tell me any of the above.
If you can't do these four items over the next 5 months, particularly if you are over 65, fat, diabetic, or have or other co-morbidities
Well, Darwin had a theory about that & future generations reliant on the Medicare Trust thank you for your service.

A lot of Trump supporters do need to be convinced of the seriousness of this virus.
Here is Trumps last chance at greatness. Unite the country against the virus. I was at the atomic bomb museum recently. Huge section on FDR. He thought he was going to be the laughingstock of history. He let the USA get attacked. We got our butt kicked. He was bummed. He got himself together and gave a speech for the ages to Unite our country against the enemy.
Trump has this chance. A huge crisis is only hoisted on a few. It's the great Presidents that Unite the country against the common enemy. Trump can save lives.
For someone that supports Trump, you should demand the best.
When I was seeing Jerry live, I had high expectations and when he did not come through, I was honest about the performance.

I get very uncomfortable when I wholeheartedly agree with a JCW09 post.... and this is one of those times.
