Again I'm already working so my job should stay closed. They were recently thinking of opening it back up...they better not even think it.

And what do we do when we overrun the hospitals? Where do we put the extra stiffs that cannot be morgued fast enough? Sorry but this is a HORRIBLE idea. Reopening in phases is crippling the hospitals as is. Many states have to enact emergency procedures even if their g-D Republican governors are too blind and foolish to not do a g-D thing. Arizona and Texas are both shining examples of why we should not reopen with no phases.

Thumbs down Fauci Admits to Lying About Wearing Masks

Remember when infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci told 60 Minutes on March 8, 2020 - "There's no reason to be walking around with a mask"?

Yet now everyone is admonished if they don't wear a mask!

In a recent interview Fauci admitted that the only reason the public were advised that masks were not initially needed was because of concerns over supply and the fear that healthcare workers would not have access to masks prompted the guidance.

Well, apparently, Fauci was lying!

Fauci is a member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, and the man that President Trump and the Public-at-Large, look to for information for their decision-making processes for responses to the Pandemic. And Fauci seems intent to keep the US on Lockdown!

Businesses in red States like Texas & Florida are now re-closing due to rapid increase in infections. Downplaying the threat at Federal and State level turned out to be a costly mistake. The Trump admin is still in denial and downplayed it even yesterday as TX and FL kept hitting new records in infections.

Also from March:


..."(The) thing that has inhibited that a bit is to make sure that we don't take away the supply of masks from the health care workers who need them, but when we get in a situation where we have enough masks, I believe there will be some very serious consideration about more broadening this recommendation of using masks," he said. "We're not there yet, but I think we're close to coming to some determination."...

There is a learning curve with novel viruses. There is a triage that happens with limited resources.

They ARE businesses in Florida. Down here in South Florida bars never even re-opened due to orders from Gov DeSantis. Lot of restaurants are re-closing in Texas.

This is the second time today you falsely accuse me of lying. It is considered a personal attack, and a low-life thing to do. Apparently no one taught you manners while you grew up.

I am aware about bars in South Florida - I live in South Florida. You are not making statements about South Florida bars. You are posting disinformation and you know it.

Wow. Republican leadership in Florida continues to fail its constituents.

It looks like new cases are starting to spike a little bit.
