The FACTS of COVID are that it is an East Coast problem in Democrat strongholds

Had she not been proactive it could have been much worse as you see the number of cases zz2 when she declared the state of emergency when she closed the schools to 25 the next day.

4 days later we had 80 cases

5 days later ( March 23 ) she issued the stay at home stay safe order for non essential workers.

Hospitals were filling up in Wayne and Oakland Counties.
We had Many Covid 19 patients coming into the hospitals amid equipment shortages.

So in a span of 5 days we went from 80 cases to 1,328 cases

That’s how fast Covid 19 spreads and Michigan was hard hit these case were extreme and most of cases needed to be hospitalized it was a very powerful strain of Covid 19 we were hit with.

This is just like Fauci saying New York did a great jb, which boils down to an unsubstantiated claim that "It could have been worse".

As I said Michigan did not have a confirmed before March 10 but we were preparing our state to be ready when and if it did hit Michigan.

From the following:

Jan. 21: The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announces the first U.S. case, in Washington state.

Jan. 24: The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services refers three cases from Washtenaw and Macomb counties to the CDC for testing. A few days later, they are found not to involve the coronavirus.

Jan. 30: WHO declares a global health emergency and the U.S. State Department warns travelers to avoid China.

Jan. 31: The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services declares a public health emergency. In one month, cases grow to nearly 10,0000 with 213 deaths worldwide.

Feb. 3: Michigan activates a Community Health Emergency Coordination Center to prepare for a possible outbreak.

Feb. 28: Gov. Gretchen Whitmer activates the State Emergency Operations Center to coordinate with local, state and federal agencies and other stakeholders.

Feb. 29: The first U.S. death is reported in Kirkland, Washington. There are cases reported in at least 59 countries.

March 3: Whitmer creates four task forces to coordinate the state’s response and assess the impact coronavirus may have on state operations, health care, schools and workplaces. The U.S. removes federal restrictions on testing in the nation.

March 10: Michigan’s first two cases of COVID-19 are confirmed in patients from Wayne and Oakland counties. Whitmer declares a state of emergency in Michigan. It is the first of 32 executive orders she will enact in a span of 24 days.

She was ready and she declared a state of emergency as soon as the first Michigan cases were reported.

New York made a massive mistake moving infected seniors back to nursing homes, but has done well at greatly reducing the infection rates as they are now significantly lower as are the daily death totals.
 
Biden can expect maybe two Christian votes. They are going to come out in full force this time to vote for Trump.

Now that IS a post that is as much in touch with reality as 99.99999% of the posts produced by Mr. Trump's supporters
 
Your side was against ANY shutdown,. How quickly you forget.

Not MY side.

PS - Would you please cite the constitutional or legislative provision that says "Every citizen of the United States of America has the right to enter, remain in and leave the United States of America." or the equivalent? After all you did say that Mr. Trump HAD to allow American citizens into the US.

PPS - Did you want Mr. Trump to allow disease carriers into the United States of America? Seriously?

PPPS - What was wrong with quarantining them in Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, and/or Kalaupapa where they wouldn't spread COVID-19 to the vast majority of Americans?

The FACTS of COVID-19 are that

  1. the US is NOT "punching up to its weight" in the fight against COVID-19.

Are you kidding? You really think Christians are going to vote for two Marxists? Biden and Harris might as well be Muslims. They will get no Christian votes and, like it r not, the religious right is still a force to be reckoned with.
 
I know, it gets depressing when you are shown to be wrong 99.9999% of the time, doesn't it?

What gets depressing is idiots posting the same garbage I previously proved wrong with one poster admitting his error and I thought it was over with and then you post the same garbage yet again.

I never did say he has to leave them in China. What do you think the let would have done if he did? Leaving American citizens in China? Seriously? The left was already excoriating him for shutting down Chinese from coming here and here you are with an idiotic post that says he should have left the American citizens there to die with no money, no pace to stay and arrested by the Chinese.

What problem is it youare talking about? A virus from China that science knows very little about how it spreads, why some get it and some don't, why some die and some don'y, why wearing masks doesn't help (see Sweden) nd why they have no vaccine r cure.

You mean THAT little thing that science doesn't know shiieet about but trys to calm peoples fears and hands them a mask like a doctor saying "Take two aspirins and call me in the morning"?

What happened to binary?

PS. I don't go to right wing sites. We all know who your GOTO sites are. WaPo, the NY Times, businessinsider, CNN, MSNBS, Rachel, Mika and Joe, The View.

Lol anther false claim on you part
 
So English is just another subject that you are uneducated on

I see that you're unable to properly formulate a cogent and lucid reply so are resorting to your usual slander as a diversionary tactic. So typical and expected of the twentysomething left wing radicals of today having bee reared by MSM watching in their daddies basement in between video games and porn.
 
Mainstream media doesn't want you you to know these facts.

The four states with the highest death toll per million of population are New York with 8.4 million people, Massachusetts with 7 million people, New Jersey with 9 million people and Connecticut with 3.6 million people for a total of 29 million people. The population of the entire United States is 331 million people. As of today, the tracker shows those those four states have 51,833 deaths which is almost a THIRD of the total deaths of 161,511. In just these four states!!!


The chart on Coronavirus Update (Live): 19,049,917 Cases and 712,474 Deaths from COVID-19 Virus Pandemic - Worldometer is averaged for all states and shows the United States with 488 deaths per million of population. BUT…if you take out these four states, the deaths per million is just 398 per million. However, the death rate in the four states is an average of a shocking 1,495 per million for the total of 29 million residents.

So how does this compare with the rest of the world and what does it tell us? That puts us 10th on the list and tells us that the four states as well as some other highly populated areas are the ones making it seem like we are doing poorly. Not only that, those are poorly run DEMOCRAT enclaves and have been for decades. Not so surprisingly, they are all on the East Coast.

For THIS, the leftists tell me I need to wear a mask and close up a business because they are afraid, even though I am not in one of those states. They have not seen the facts I stated above and even after they do an are told their chances of catching COVID are as slim as being bitten by a brown spider, they have been indoctrinated by MSM now so much that they are in rage.


“Now, it may get bigger, it may get a little bigger. It may not get bigger at all.”
—Donald J. Trump

I see this is the second time you made the same post because you are being taught by the Goebbel News that repeating a lie often enough makes people think it is the truth. Maybe we should coin a term called Goebellian for what the left wingers here do? Has a nice ring to it, doncha think?

I can just respond....."Thank you. That's very Goebellian of you."

Trump says it could have been worse and claims he shutdown the economy, this today:

My Administration and I built the greatest economy in history, of any country, turned it off, saved millions of lives, and now am building an even greater economy than it was before. Jobs are flowing, NASDAQ is already at a record high, the rest to follow. Sit back & watch!
- Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)

Opps…..:lamo :lamo :lamo

He saved maybe 150,000 lives. IMHO, it was not worth it.

Not according to The Donald. Plus he claims he shut the economy down. So there ya go, either trump is a big fat Liar or you are, pick one.

That is his opinion. You folks always claim an opinion is a lie. I have asked countless times for lies and all I get is this sort f idiotic thing that his claims and contentions are lies.

I disagreed with him and still do on a shutdown. My 150,000 relates to how many MORE people would have died. His claim of millions is inflated IMHO but some of you may agree with him because you're all freaking out about masks and the teachers not going back to work.

Sweden gained immunity by not shutting down. I believe NYC, NJ and Conn. and Mass are also immune now. Why? Because they had high death rates and the virus has done what it is going to do. <asks or NO masks.

But, but, but, maybe we should go back and look at your early predictions and see how many you said would die, or are you backpedaling on that also?

Did you here the University of North Carolina sent all they students home, hundreds have tested positive, guess why, No Masks and No Social Distancing. Good Grief when are the Adolescent's in this country going to Learn, and I am not talking about school children.

Look at this way, in just a few months you wouldn't have to defend the policies and actions of a Serial Liar and Unfit Inept Fat Man. You can just spend your time whining about everyone else, much easier.

I am not back peddling. The virus turned out to be slightly stronger than I estimates. As you recall the experts were saying millions, so I am still closer.

PS. the enthusiasm for Biden/Harries just isn't there. The leftists would rather play dungeons and dragons or watch CNN than get up to vote for them. The DNC convention was such a yawner I saw multitudes of Antifa and BLMers watching paint dry that they threw on a statue of Clinton thinking he was a confederate general.

OH WAiT! That's why they are screaming about mail in ballots.
