Yesterday our governor (Whitmer of Michigan) issued new restrictions beginning today. #COVID45's idiot "doctor's" response? He told the citizens to "rise up" and "resist" obeying them. WTF????

From a friend....
"We are now a solid 8 months into this. If you are not working/not getting a paycheck/struggling to make ends meet and run out of food or necessities...please don’t let yourself or your kids, even your fur kids, go to sleep with an empty stomach. Don’t be afraid or embarrassed to send me a private message. I am more than happy to help WITH WHAT I CAN. I will drop and go, or order for delivery. No one has to know and I will pretend it never happened. What's understood never has to be explained. I am lucky to be where we are in life and I am willing to help...We are all in this together."

Yep. But in this case, I'm appalled that a PHYSICIAN is telling people not to obey restrictions meant to save lives, even if it is one of #COVID45's pet toadies. Our hospitals up here are at almost full capacity. God forbid you should have a non-COVID health emergency requiring ICU right now.

From the OP:
This is 11-17-20. Now we can see that was tragically incorrect.(4-9-20)Our prez has talked about this being the worst week of the pandemic for the USA.
Obviously the president either:
a) Didn't know what he was talking about.
or
b) He did, but he lied to us.
Either way it was a failure of leadership.
He needs to give up fighting the election results, accept what has happened, and allow the transition to proceed for the good of America. That would be putting America first.

For a medical professional to be parroting Trump by playing down the dangers of covid-19 is just irrational and outrageous.
Trump’s COVID advisor urges Americans to visit elderly for Thanksgiving because it may be their ‘final’ one
President Donald Trump’s highly controversial COVID-19 advisor,Dr. Scott Atlas, is urging Americans to visit their elderly family members for Thanksgiving because it may be their final one. Atlas warns against isolation despite the coronavirus pandemic’s near-exponential explosion.

Hello Tumpet,
What an idiotic thing to say.
Choosing to visit could be choosing death.
Staying away this year could result in many more years to enjoy regular visits.
Drive by and wave from outside the house instead.
We are running out of doctors and nurses to treat COVID patients.

Yesterday was a big day for Americans dying of COVID.
1600 dead.
We have got to do better.
I know there is COVID fatigue. Wanting this to all be over will not make it be over.
Pretending it is no problem is making the problem worse.
