COVID-19: Chapter 5 - BACK TO SCHOOL

Depends on who wins in November.

It’s weird because I swear they said indoor dining and gyms were closed for LA county a week ago.

Lol

Update. We’re on our first day of the week and clocked 19 new cases today.

They probably ram the capital gains tax holiday through in a lame duck once they finally realize its all over. Once last chance to loot.

Anytime you want to say that Cornyn sucks is okay by me.

Even with a dream election, nothing will happen unless they nuke the filibuster for good. Which is…unlikely.

Biden winning isn’t going to make people change their minds on vaccines, masks and SDing I’m afraid. It may make them more defiant and keep the virus thriving .

I remember when 19 was a “ big deal “ for us . We average 200+ a day now. Good luck. Stock up.

Looking at county level data and seeing huge variations in cases/test and deaths/case is kinda driving me nuts. It’s just clear how limited our knowledge is.

If kids spread this like they do pretty much everything else, and there’s no reason to think they don’t, idiot red states where schools open up are going to be a bloodbath.

Why shouldn’t there be a huge variation in those numbers from county to county?

Lmao just when I start taking pictures of random Chyrons I like from cable news one of them goes viral. I should totally be one of those pro tweeters man!

True, but “as a nation” I think we see the need. It’s just a vocal minority of deplorables, plus the WH and toadie GOP that are against it. If Biden wins you’ll take away the biggest anti-safety mouthpiece. Hopefully the GOP will no longer feel the need to slurp Trump, then you’ll be left with just a few crazy deplorables screaming about feeling threatened in a Costco

It’s literally just an opportunity for the mega rich to cash out for free and pay no taxes.

I get skewed because I’m on the south where they are a majority. I hope u are right but I don’t see trump putting down the microphone if he loses. I’m slightly pessimistic these days.

I was watching the press conference and wasn’t sure who was yelling at him.
