Even Children With No Symptoms Can Spread COVID. CDC Report Suggests.

As many as you find acceptable for police, soldiers, nurses, at food processing plants, at McDonalds, truck drivers, etc. etc. etc.

False. No death from Covid 19 is acceptable.

Hospitals, police departments, the military and businesses provide protective gear and followed the best guidelines to protect our essential workers.
 
Just stop with the fearmongering. Today the CEO of Pfizer, Dr. Albert Bourla was on Face the Nation. He stated that Pfizer is on the last stretch of testing whether the product of vaccine for covid is safe and effective and in sometime in October all their testing will be completed. He is so confident in the product they have produced that Pfizer has already started the process of getting it approved by the federal government. He believes before the end of the year their vaccine will be ready to disburse.

All this was made possible thanks to Trump who in January had started Operation Warp Speed reaching out to the private sector pharmaceuticals cutting bureaucratic red tape so he could fund multiple companies to produce an effective, safe vaccine.

While the democrats were working on shutting down the country and destroying our economy a true leader was working on the cure.:thumbs::thumbs:

insider knowledge suggests: no they do not provide such. The 'catch' in the statement is
"best guidelines" and often the best protective gear is not provided.. though some data evaluations are questioning some benefits of such gear.
This argument may never end.

Meanwhile over 198,000 died in the USA.

About 40 percent since May after we were aware that bipap and high flow oxygen which are not dependent on sedation helped patients more often than vents and that masks helped slow the spread of the Covid 19 virus and stay from crowds.

Why are so many not wearing masks ?

And let's see how many people will trust a rushed vaccine enough to get it.

My concerns are for our first responders and medical personnel. Many of them will be mandated to get the vaccine. They will end up being the guinea pigs.

There is a reason for 'red tape' on medical treatments, medicines, vaccines :doh Should we just trash all other pharmaceutical testing procedures as well? It's one thing to take care of paperwork to certify a drug or vaccine ahead of time...it's another to sign off on that paperwork before testing is complete or if testing was shortchanged in the rush.


This is the barely coherent and grammatically inept speech of a man who desperately wants to be able to claim that he "cured coronavirus."

That's it, in a nutshell. When we do get a handle on this crisis, he wants to be able to pull out footage and declare "I called it! I said use this! I said try this! I told them to do this, it was my idea!" He's just doing it with lots of stupid stuff because he doesnt want to miss an opportunity. He's afraid 'the big one' will be mentioned and he wont get credit for it.

It's all about declaring himself the savior of the cv crisis and we'll hear all about it, esp in his campaign. (Which is basically each of his press briefings these days) --- Lursa

The same reason we have millions of idiots all across the country standing in large crowds shoulder to shoulder since march? The same reason we can safely shop in large crowded big box stores yet closed and destroyed most small businesses. It is called party politics and you can't fix stupid. This president is not a career politician and a party puppet so the rich and powerful are using their media to destroy him and put a bought and paid for party puppet back in the White House.

1/2 the deaths in my state were at nursing homes. This is the fate of people who depend on our local government when the party only cares about maintaining control of our government. The democratic party actually is blaming the president for their failure to protect our elderly and most vulnerable who are dependent on the government. I am so glad my father is in a nursing home in a republican run state and we did not move him back here to PA. Otherwise he would be dead as well.

People were told to socially distance when shopping for essentials.

Most stores were required to have fewer customers allowed in at a time.

Nursing home deaths occurred because someone brought Covid 19 into the nursing home and the infected Person/people was/ were not isolated as was required. Hospitals isolated Covid patients and nursing homes should have followed the same procedures .

If only the USA had been prepared with enough personal protective equipment for staff and patients.

It all goes back to being unprepared and relying on foreign supplies instead of making sure the United States had a large stockpile and manufactured our own PPE here in United States instead of outsourcing it.

Let us learn from our mistakes made during this pandemic.

The bureaucratic red tape I mentioned has absolutely nothing to do with the rigid protocol in place in regard to creating and testing a vaccine. Furthermore it is ridiculous to think that a company like Pfizer would present a vaccine that was not safe or effective. To do so would jeopardize and ruin their company.

That only works at the big box stores that make large contributions to the party.

Nursing home deaths occurred because social distancing could not be done by the over crowded conditions that exist in our local run homes. Have you ever been to any of the nursing homes and witnessed the deplorable conditions that have been going on. That is the fault of our local leaders not Trump. The virus did come to our nursing homes. Our democratic leaders required infected patients be sent back to our nursing homes. They killed our elderly and most vulnerable who unfortunately made the mistake of becoming dependent our local government which failed to protect them.

Food and drugs are considered Essential items.

What big box stores that sold food or pharmacy items were not allowed to stay open?

Please inform me I am very curious.
 
This is a health issue regarding young children.


Please leave politics out of it.

It's rather difficult to do that when Trump has already made a political football out of a deadly pandemic, downplaying it because the 'numbers' didn't look good.

Exactly. We have done nothing to prepare for the next pandemic since Influenza in 1918. We had no mask for our health care workers. We had over crowded conditions in our nursing homes with no way of even remotely accomplishing social distancing. Who and the viral lab was in China instead of here where we would have had the answers, a vaccine, drugs that are effective, and making us dependent on China while we did most of the funding. Trump brought that to an end thank God. I could send you pages of the failure by our government for over a hundred years on every level. Maybe if Trump was not fighting a coup he might have got time to address some of these issues.

Why did hospitals send ill patients back to their homes?

If a busing home was were they lived it is their home.

Why is that the local governments fault?

As I said we should learn from our past mistakes.

I also think telling those not sick enough who have Clvid 19 to be hospitalized to remain home and have family care for them put families in danger also.

I hope solutions can be found and these mistakes are not repeated again.

I agree we not prepared for this pandemic however the Bush administration tried to us help us prepare us for a pandemic.

From wiki

On March 1, 2003, the NPS was renamed the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) program with joint management by Department of Homeland Security and Department of Health and Human Services.


In at least 10 government reports from 2003 to 2015, federal officials predicted the U.S. would experience a shortage of ventilators and other medical supplies if it faced a large-scale infectious disease outbreak.[7]

In 2005 and in preparation for a predictable pandemic influenza, the Bush administration called for the coordination of domestic production and stockpiling of protective personal equipments.[8]


In 2006, the US Congress funded the integration of protective equipment to a Strategic National Stockpile: 52 million surgical masks and 104 million N95 air-filtration masks were acquired and added.[8]

During the 2009 flu pandemic, tens of millions of masks were used, but during the Obama administration strategic stocks were not “significantly restored”, neither have they been during the Trump administration.[9]

As of March 2020, the national strategic stockpile has 40 million masks while 100 times more are expected to be necessary to handle the pandemic crisis.[8]

The fact that All these big stores were able to stay open safely proves beyond any doubt that there was never any need to shut down but to act responsibly. Nothing has changed with how deadly this virus is or how contagious but now it is safe for me to get a hair cut. The casinos are open and this virus is still the same virus. The same virus that the left destroyed our economy over because now it is OK. Well It will be OK once the left had used this pandemic to regain political power. The writing is on the wall for those who wish to see.

Clearly you have no clue what happened. These infected patients were ordered back to the overcrowded conditions in our nursing homes. Read up on the facts and then we can discuss it. Plus blaming the overworked health care workers for what our leaders did is pathetic. They were risking their lives and doing their best with the deplorable conditions our failed local leaders provided for our elderly. The same local leaders that failed to weed out the bad cops. But go ahead and re-elect these same failed leaders and dismantle the police for a solution.

That is all the 2 pathetic parties do is try but the only thing they accomplish is getting nothing done while each party blames the other. But the truly ignorant are the people who support these parties.

In Michigan Casinos were only allowed to reopen July or August with a reduced capacity of only 15 percent.

Hair and nail salons are open with reduced capacity and with appointments only.

Masks also must be worn.

Our non essential businesses were not allowed to reopen ever with reduced capacity until after we learned that masks helped when used in inside spaces.
 
Even children with no symptoms can spread Covid-19, CDC report shows


In case anyone thought differently.

Read the link first.

Yeah. But hasn't emphasis been on leveling the spread? Levelling the spread isn't a concern with stopping the spread or stopping deaths it's the concern with slowing the geometric progression of the spread.

Ergo, there is no concern with deaths from Covid with social distancing. There is a concern with geometric increases of deaths from Covid with social distancing.

A true leader wouldn't have deliberately lied to you, knowing the pandemic was deadly, and downplaying it at every opportunity while the virus raged on and he did nothing. What's your excuse for that? Trump couldn't lead a troop of boy scouts.
Every other advanced country with both liberal and conservative governments has seen rapidly declining rates of infections and death, and we also saw draconian lockdown measures put in place, hurting our economies badly. So what makes America uniquely unable to get a handle on the virus? I'll tell you; adversarial political parties which consider scoring points more important than a nation's health.
