Even Pres Trump now acknowledges the Coronavirus will continue and will get worse and finally finally admits wearing a mask helps. Unreal huh, reality has a way sometimes.

A great deal of information concerning this virus is false or biased baloney. Nothing Trump or his administration says can be taken at face value, it must be examined. Thus information in this thread is open to all. I do request you source your site. See links at bottom as an example. Be safe.

Will schools reopen? Here in Philly public schools are a 'no' for now. Parochial schools are opening at least so far. Of course August may prove all assumptions false. Be safe out here, wear a mask.

This Pandemic has demonstrated the failure of the republicans and Trump. Followers are not leaders, they are not even Americans.
