The early testing fuck up is why this is growing exponentially. There still isn’t enough testing like we were told there would be. Where are other countries like Germany getting all the test kits from? I heard Germany is testing 500,000 people per week. Quote

They fucking prepared for it instead of calling it a hoax and saying "cases will go down to zero like a miracle". 6 Quote

No. As a whole this country was ill prepared for a pandemic for a long time.

I will not be surprised if doctors and nurses start quitting more and more due to lack of safety gear. What a mess. Quote

I was thinking more like a million so if that’s the case that’s still terrible but improvement. People love Dr. Fauci.. Quote

Ok, I’ll play troll with you. Maybe trump is better than Hillary. But she is tech/science/SME savvy and if she was prez, we would not be in this state of utter fuckness. Would have been on the ground running since January.Do you still allow housekeeping to clean your place? Quote
toast21602 Posted March 31, 2020 Author Report Posted March 31, 2020 (edited) Crazy to see their pivot from "we'll be down to zero cases" to "100-240k deaths is a good outcome" Edited March 31, 2020 by toast21602 1 Quote

Regardless of politics. I'm viewing this from a healthcare provider perspective and I'd have the same reaction no matter who was leading our country through this. Its embarrassing. It is going to get healthcare professionals killed. it is going to kill thousands of Americans. It is a complete failure and they are scrambling to make it right. The problem with this is that you can't make up lost ground. It should also piss people off that there are still idiots endangering others by not taking this seriously.

Every time I go out, I see high school aged kids hanging out somewhere. Today, I actually saw the cops chase about 10-12 kids on bikes out of an already closed park. I don’t think they caught anyone. My neighbor has two different visitors regularly stopping in. Silver civic & white explorer. I keep asking myself “who else are those visitors in contact with?”. Edited April 1, 2020 by RootDKJ Quote
EdBacon Posted April 1, 2020 Report Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) You couldn't buy the kits, that's why hospitals didn't stock up. They didn't exist. People wanted them but there just were none. There still aren't nearly enough. Edited April 1, 2020 by EdBacon Quote

A customer I was on the phone with had visitors. A friend of mines kid has both visited her mom at work and had sleepover with her grandma. Then you have those church people in Tampa and here in Allentown as recently as this past Friday there were yard sales. Kids at local parks acting like absolutely nothing wrong. Quote
