Trump said it. Birx said it. Now the Surgeon General. What the hell is going to happen this week? Notice he did not say COULD be.
Oh well, as long as he didn't say ALL Americans lives, everything is good!
Surgeon general: 'This is going to be the hardest and the saddest week of most Americans' lives'

U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams warned Sunday amid the coronavirus pandemic that the week ahead would be the “hardest and the saddest” of “most Americans’ lives.”
“This is going to be the hardest and the saddest week of most Americans’ lives,” Adams said on “Fox News Sunday."
“This is going to be our Pearl Harbor moment and our 9/11 moment only it’s not going to be localized, it’s going to be happening all over the country,” Adams said.
He added, however, that there "is a light at the end of the tunnel if everyone does their part for the next 30 days.”
“There is hope but we’ve also got to all do our part.”
Host Chris Wallace also pressed Adams on President Trump’s repeated promotion of the antimalarial drug hydrochloroquine as a coronavirus treatment. The drug has not been approved for that use and experts have warned a run on supplies could lead to a shortage for those who need it for its FDA-approved uses.
“Here’s what we’ve advised the president: When people are in a tragic situation, we want them to be able to have a conversation with their healthcare provider about everything they can do to save their lives,” Adams responded. “We feel a little bit better regarding its safety than we do about a completely novel drug.”...

Yes, the Chinese virus that China failed to contain is causing death and economic harm in America and around the world.
Time to cancel our debt to China for reparations.

When we reach the peak of cases it's not like that is some magic moment when it all goes away and we can drop our guard.
The virus is still out there.

Wow, I thought the claim was that liberals were panicking and exaggerating.SURGEON GEN just said, "This will be the HARDEST/SADDEST WK of most American LIVES"
That is a really weird thing to say for an administration who's leader spent three months downplaying and denying the risk

Well, no.
“President Trump's approval numbers are as high as they've ever been throughout his presidency as he deals with the coronavirus outbreak, according to the latest Gallup poll.
The poll shows 60 percent of Americans approve of the president's handling of his actions to combat the virus. That includes 94 percent of Republicans and 60 percent of Independents, while just 27 percent of Democrats approve of the president's handling of the outbreak.
Meanwhile, his overall job approval is at 49 percent, which is tied for the highest he has ever been when polled by Gallup. Trump jumped 5 points in the tracking poll from earlier this month.”

What do you think will be the lesson learned from this ?SURGEON GEN just said, "This will be the HARDEST/SADDEST WK of most American LIVES"
" First they came for the journalists...
We don't know what happened after that . "

“Within hours of President Trump's decision to restrict travel from China on Jan. 31, top Democrats and media figures immediately derided the move as unnecessary and xenophobic -- and they are now beating a hasty retreat from that position as the coronavirus continues to ravage the economy and cause scores of deaths.
Democratic presidential contender Joe Biden led the way, quickly attacking what he called Trump's "record of hysteria, xenophobia and fear-mongering" after the travel restrictions were announced, and arguing that Trump "is the worst possible person to lead our country through a global health emergency." Biden, on Wednesday, didn't criticize the travel ban in any way, and instead accused Trump of "downplaying" the virus early on in remarks to Fox News.
"I had Biden calling me xenophobic," Trump told Fox News' "Hannity" on March 26. "He called me a racist, because of the fact that he felt it was a racist thing to stop people from China coming in."
In March, another Democratic presidential candidate, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., conspicuously insisted at a Fox News town hall that he wouldn't consider closing the U.S. border to prevent the spread of coronavirus, before condemning what he called the president's xenophobia. The Vermont senator has since taken to promoting "Medicare-for-All" and workers' rights amid the outbreak, while deferring to health experts on border closings.”

There are three peaks to look for. They come in succession. The first peak is the number of active cases. The next peak is the number of hospitalizations. And finally comes the peak of daily death rate.
So there will be a time after the peak in the number of active cases when hospitalizations are still rising.
And there be a time after hospitalizations have peaked when the death rate is still rising.
As the virus spreads across the country, the epicenter is where the first peaks will be reached. Other regions will follow, on a different time basis.
The peaks come at different times, depending on location.
The first thing we would like to see peak is the number of active cases in NYC.
The number of cases will still be rising in other regions when the first of the three peaks comes to NYC.
It doesn't happen all at once.
The worst week for NYC will happen before the worst week for New Orleans, for example, and then other regions later still.
It will be a rolling cascade of 'worst weeks,' all according to where you live.
