Fauci has shown that he's not exactly neutral on the subject.
The difference between Fauci and Trump is that Fauci revises his views based on changing information. Trump doubles down when he is proven to be an airhead.

Out of the two positive cases, one was high risk due to cancer and they both recovered within a week. Sure, this could also be considered a special case, but I also have 4 more of them I could tell. Adding my personal experience to the statistical data i have seen, makes this a pretty low risk virus to most people in my opinion.

Speaking of flu. I was mandated to get a flu shot while in the military, and every year I was sick at some point. When I got out, I decided I had the choice and I stopped getting the shot. It's been 7 years now and I haven't been sick once.
Good for you. Perhaps you should attend a COVID party like this young man:

Quote:
A 30-year-old patient who thought the coronavirus was a hoax has died after attending a “COVID party” in Texas, a doctor said.

“One of the things that was heart-wrenching that he said to his nurse was, ‘You know, I think I made a mistake,’ and this young man went to a COVID party,” Dr. Jane Appleby, the chief medical officer at Methodist Hospital, said, according to television station KSAT in San Antonio on Friday. “He didn’t really believe. He thought the disease was a hoax. He thought he was young and he was invincible and wouldn’t get affected by the disease.”

Anti-vaccers are bringing diseases thought to be dead, back to life:

Quote:
The website for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention currently leads its homepage with information about measles, a disease considered eliminated in the U.S. in 2000.

“The reason measles is coming back is that a critical number of parents have chosen not to vaccinate their children,’’ said Paul Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. “If you get to a few thousand cases, you’ll start to see children die of measles again.’’
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...es/3295390002/
Your individual results are meaningless in the face of what your irresponsibility foisters upon society as a whole.

But then there are a lot of nut jobs out there right now. We are getting dumber based on the level of intelligence of our Idiot-in-Chief.

^^^ Condescending, baseless, snarky remark aimed at bolstering the science deniers and those political characterless propagandists who view the pandemic and public health crisis only as a threat to Donald Trump's re-election. (By the way, shame on them. Shame, shame, shame.)

Elected leaders in Houston called this weekend for the return of a stay-at-home order in the city for at least two weeks, as it grapples with one of the country’s worst outbreaks.

Houston’s mayor, Sylvester Turner, and Lina Hidalgo, (the Harris County judge who is the chief executive for the states most populous county) both said that more stringent measures were needed because the previous restrictions had been eased too early.

Quote:
“Not only do we need a stay home order now, but we need to stick with it this time until the hospitalization curve comes down, not just flattens,” Ms. Hidalgo, who, as judge, is the chief executive for Texas’ most populous county, wrote on Twitter. “Many communities that persevered in that way are reopening for the long haul. Let’s learn from that & not make the same mistake twice.”
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/12/w...s-updates.html

Houston, you have a problem. However, it also appears you have a few intelligent & dedicated public servants who respect their duty to their office and sworn oath and are trying to do their jobs. Also, please know, many across the country are genuinely sorry for the great loss and suffering your citizens are experiencing. 43 pages of COVID obituaries...tragic.

We are in this together. Americans are in this together. The world's people are in this together. It is way past time that we, in the USA, start acting like it and ignore fools such as Woolery and Trump.

His net worth means that the poster who called him a failed game show host - was wrong.

Anyone who thinks Covid is a hoax to hurt the President, has a few screws loose somewhere.
Go tell that to the family and friends of the dead people who have died from it...or the people from all over the world, not just this country who have suffered from it, some who have died from it....that it is all just a hoax, not real, and I guess you think they must be part of the hoax...just to get Donald Trump???? Get real.
This is not about you. It is not about Donald Trump. Not every thing is.
The Narcissism is off the charts lately and the paranoia runs wild.




Why am I not surprised that the Reality show TV star, believes and retweets the Failed Game show host, instead of retweeting Doctors and scientific data and facts. What a surprise!
