Unbelievable. No wonder given the Trump Super Spreader Events.

No care for the people. Pathetic.
I wish you'd quit pushing the liberal narrative. More people are being tested leading to more cases. As you can see from the stats if you go to a state's website or Worldometers - despite more reported cases from more testing - deaths are way down. As stated numerous times - the states like NY that locked down - still have Covid cases despite all the regulations and we haven't had any Trump rallies here. Americans - Dems and Repub. alike are sick of the lockdowns.

Despite Asian countries - doing everything right - according to libs - they have increased cases and their people obey all the rules.

Best to lock yourself in - shut off the news and chill for a couple of years - Covid is here to stay.

This statement ignores the health care systems capacity as a factor.

The good news is that deaths hasn't climbed as rapidly.... in part due to the advances we've made to treating the disease. However, that can only be maintained if we don't overwhelm the health care system. Cases count is a predictor of that concern.

Exactly. Unfortunately this is what happens when you don't have a national leader providing guidance especially after doing away with the pandemic White House office.

Trump did not do away with the pLandemic White House office. Fauci keeps sticking his ugly face out every day.

Deaths are a lagging indicator. Remember the last wave when cases were going down and yet deaths were still rising?

1000 deaths a day and rising in the U.S is not "way down".

Fauci was right! I'm not surprised.
"Top disease researcher Dr Anthony Fauci has told the US Senate that he "would not be surprised" if new virus cases in the country reach 100,000 per day.

"Clearly we are not in control right now," he testified, warning that not enough Americans are wearing masks or social distancing."

Sorry. But he did.

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wire...aised-69594177

Trump disbanded NSC pandemic unit that experts had praised.

Public health and national security experts shake their heads when President Donald Trump says the coronavirus "came out of nowhere" and “blindsided the world.”

I do not understand those who are willing to potentially risk their own lives and the lives of their families to break bread.
The rise in numbers is Canada is attributed, in part, to Thanksgiving events.

Social distancing? Just because Fauci was a dork in school who had no friends, got pantsed in gym class, didn't comb his hair, and had BO, it doesn't mean we must embrace his lifestyle. Socializing is a real human need. Fauci can kiss my sweaty, stinky butt.
