And there is likely to be increases in infection because of these protests. What is your point? That people should not be upset by your police killing unarmed black people? Not be upset about pepper spraying people for fun? Not be upset about officers throwing white power signs? Your country's law enforcement system is rotten to the core and your response is "but what about social distancing"? You are so incredibly representative of what is wrong with the US.

It would be fun to see all the right wingers who are refusing to wear "coward masks", protesting the stay-at-home orders and insisting on hanging out in bars and massage parlors suddenly start attacking people who are doing just that. You are just the person to lead them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
headoverheels 291 #32 June 2, 2020 Is it really a "second" wave, when the first wave hasn't really dissipated? NIMM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In a normal infection you'd see a peak and then a decline very similar to the rise (but mirrored.) But we have seen a peak and then a leveling out as the virus starts spreading again. Where will it go from here? It will depend on what people do. If they maintain social isolation protocols then there's a good chance it will slowly decline because Ro will be below 1. If not, they will start rising again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Given that we're dealing with someone so desperate to say good things about Trump that he even demands that people praise him for actions that are the exact opposite of what he actually did... seems pretty obvious.

wmw999 2,116 #42 June 17, 2020 There's a lot negative that can be said about GWB's performance as president. However, he did seem to care (sometimes in a clueless way) about other people, and opportunity to be spread across the board. There was a pretty good program about him recently on American Experience (I think). It excoriated him on Katrina and Iraq, but showed that he also tried to walk his walk, too. Wendy P.

Hi Wendy, I think his biggest mistake was listening to Cheney too much. I thought that program on him was very fair. He seems to be a very nice guy.
