Families gathering for a holiday..just as the Cuomos planned to, before the public took AC to task for his hypocrisy.

It's actually more of giving damn about other people besides yourself because not all the sick and old can isolate 24/7...

I'm uncertain how they pull the numbers nor forms of data to comprise their numbers.

This, a thousand times!!!!

Covid has been politicized six ways to Sunday, so you can't blame people for being skeptical of officials and especially the media. From Trump being called "racist" for restricting travel from certain areas to Democrats encouraging citizens to ride the subways and hug people; from telling people they can't walk on the beach or attend weddings to telling the public that "protests" and riots are safe, the messaging has all the earmarks of political opportunism and virtue-signaling.

It is a very selfish act if it can be avoided.
Would you say the same of protests? And if not, why not?

Meanwhile, I have stayed isolated from everyone since March and will continue to do so until 2 months after I get the vaccine. Yet I am told I am the cause of the spread because I voted Republican this year and my family members are all the answer because they all voted Democrat.
So this virus is able to determine the political beliefs of humans? Wow.

Yep. Hospitals get full sometimes, and it is not only because of this one virus. The fact is that the system is prepared now and there are no population centers that are being "overwhelmed" by the service requirements associated with this.

And no masks at Thanksgiving dinner either!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
