Like it or hate it the following is only my opinion:

Failure is the short sightedness of the American people
for not condemning China for the global virus exposure.

So, everyone who's contracted the virus is at fault themselves due to "sheer incompetence"?


I mean, forget the fact that NY is now saying that some 60% of new cases are in those who've been sheltering at home.......

There's really no way to protect yourself from a virus as contagious as COVID-19 unless you lock yourself in your basement like Joe Biden.....even then, you can still get it if you have ANY human contact.

That's why IMO it's best to just keep living your life and let the chips fall where they may. COVID-19 isn't ebola, even if you get it, you'll almost certainly be fine.

Um... if there was any chance of this being as deadly as they claim ... none of them would be making any public appearances.

The fact that they continue to do so tells you all you need to know about the "pandemic."

If you can ignore the partisan BS, you will see that they ALL are acting the same way.

What does that tell YOU?

Or following the RULES of the HOUSE- be real-- nobody walks in or out of that place not in-tune with the bosses desires.

A rather unanimous number of American people condemn China for its responsibility in the pandemic, what does that have to do with this thread. The disease is here, its about the reaction to stop the spread and the utter disregard for science and intelligent practices by this administration.

This is pure FAILURE all over the place. How about a mandatory shut down until we get competent leadership?
You should calm down.

People sheltering in home does not Mean that others are not coming into the home or infected items being brought into those homes.
