This is not a political issue and this is not a US issue. Countries with no or few mitigation efforts and enough dense population centers are suffering. Russia tried to ignore it before they realized this is real. China cares way less about its citizens than we do. If thing was as harmless as some make it out to be, they would let it run its course. We all know what they actually did instead. It's not "doom and gloom" to take this seriously like some ****ing idiots seem to think. You're seeing the beginning stages of explosions happening in AZ and Texas. Other states, counties, countries are not magically immune. |

Did you notice that that word wasn't the media's word? They were quoting a doctor.

OBVIOUSLY, each city will be different and there may be no expectation of that happening anywhere else at this moment..... but, that's how fast things changed for that one comparison city you mentioned. New York went from 'not apocalyptic by a long shot' to pretty ****ing bad in a matter of a couple weeks. |

The CDC also updated their list of underlying conditions today.

"Apocalyptic" and "unprecedented" are 2 of the most wrongfully used words I commonly hear.

Worldometers showing we might come in with less deaths than last Thursday. This is a good sign. I hope to God this trend continues to go down.

Why is no one talking about California? They have been racking up the cases so much that they actually passed New Jersey 3 or 4 days ago in total cases. They have over double the deaths than Texas and almost double the cases of Florida. I know the reason the media won't talk about it and I won't get into that here but why is no one in this thread talking about CA?
They locked down before and for longer than just about any other state. LA County actually passed a law forcing people to wear masks when outside regardless of where they were. While states like Texas and Florida opened up sooner and were a bit more lax in their lockdown restrictions we are seeing the same results in a state that didn't do what Texas and Florida did. |

It isn't like a state full of people who have been locked inside for 3 months is shockingly having a problem in its most populous county, despite strict quarantine. The reasons it is continuing to be a problem are quite obvious. It wasn't strict after about the first 8 weeks. As soon as people started saying the curve was flattening, many people chose to return to more normal routines, thus cases rise. This week is a real treat. The testing site at Dodger Stadium is down due to the vendor being replaced. So far no new appointments can be made. That is really great timing. |
