California, New York handled COVID-19 lockdowns the worst, Florida among the best, a new study shows

Never said anything about rich people because I didn't know that rich meant they were Republican or Democrat. Yes, people died mostly elderly and most with underlying conditions. Conservatives give a shit about personal responsibility and not gov't overreach. Have you considered moving to a country where the gov't controls your freedom of choice?

Why are old people or people with underlying conditions worth less to you? Why is it okay for them to die to preserve the wealth of the rich?

Freedom of choice like parents choosing for their transgender child to undergo gender affirming treatment?

We’re already in that country. Republican state legislatures, with the help of ALEC, are issuing one mandate after another regarding the manner in which local government agencies and individuals “MUST” act in accordance with their restrictive laws. Republican fascism on the rise in state legislatures nationwide.

You have become the subject as everything is D or R to you certainly not policies and results. the article is quite clear and points out exactly what I said most of 2020 and you ignored. Governors and Mayors are responsible for the Covid Results in their area due to the Constitution, but that is a foreign concept to you as it is all about placing blame with you on R's

they aren't, why isn't the overstating of Covid results resonating with you?

As if you and that far right extremist group were not trying to blame it on the D’s, right? *L*

What overstating? Is this where you link to conspiracy theory nonsense from a site like OAN or Zero Hedge?

Is there proof that Covid rather than underlying conditions caused thousands of deaths? Hospitals being reimbursed for Covid deaths is incentive to report all deaths as Covid. Did that happen?

If a President knows that a deadly pandemic is likely coming, a huge disruptive event that is going to kill a lot of people then there are many things that could be done to alleviate the impact.

Low hanging fruit would have been to stock up on PPE supplies for dispersement where needed, take stock of ventilators. and make sure that they are in working order, get all agencies on the same page as to the handling and acquisition of material needed and most importantly…. Don’t lie because you think that the pandemic is going to hurt you politically.

None of that happened.

It'd almost like Obama handed the Trump admin an instruction manual on how to handle something like this...a playbook if you will. And Trump ignored it..

So yes, conspiracy theory nonsense.

But thank you for giving good reasons to remove profits and profit-seeking from US healthcare.

ROFLMAO!! Obama handed Trump a playbook? What playbook, how to prevent recovery from a major recession? Yep, Trump ignored that one. As for Covid why didn't Obama replenish the PPE equipment?

Do you realize that you live in the wrong country? Seems you want the federal gov't to take away your freedom of choice even to make bad decisions

Obama did an excellent job of recession recovery, held back only be the refusal of Repubs to try to undermine it.

Does this study take into account how NYC is run? I ask because NYC is run mostly on public transportation, which packs people into small spaces.

You have to be capable of critical thinking to comprehend that a city with 50,000 people per square mile will have higher transmission rates than areas with hundreds per square mile.

He forgets that McConnell and the Republicans swore to do EVERYTHING they could to make Obama a one term President and they did do everything they could and when he was re-elected they tried to make him look as bad as G W Bush was
MAYBE if they had worked with him for the good of the Country and it's people we would have had a faster stronger recovery but NO they were all about the R over the D BS.
Have a nice day

Freedom of choice like allowing my trans child to take puberty blockers?

This has what to do with the thread? what you do with your child is quite different than what the left wants the gov't to mandate or allow. why is this a federal issue?

And history repeated itself with Biden losing how many seats in November? When exactly did McConnell make that statement, before or after the Obama stimulus failures? The good of the country? The good of the country is what Trump did, allowing people to do what apparently you want the gov't to do, provide for your personal responsibility issues
