    People are just not taking this seriously enough.

    So hard to figure, coming out the 'tough guy' right.

    Here, we find ourselves in a war not of our choosing, but one we must surely fight, and one that is currently kicking our you know what, and they don't want to fight it. Guns are useless weapons in this war, so they don't want to fight it with the only weapons we have. Masks, distancing, modified lifestyles to until we get it under control until we get a practical vaccine. And if the news is correct, all we have to do is hold out until January or so. They have one in the works. So we just need to buy time until then, keep on fighting the good fight, and they can't be bothered. Ignore it, downplay it, pretend it is no big deal, rant about personal rights, anything but get with the program and help their neighbors.

    Because they won't fight, the death tolls rise.

    We humans all need to watch each other's backs in this one, and they are letting down their end of the deal.

    It's like the anti-masker, 'maskitude*' ones are actually on the side of the enemy, the coronavirus. Trying to help the enemy take more victims.

    * maskitude: The attitude of the reluctant who have been forced by law to wear masks, but they don't want to. So they run around touching everything, getting far too close to others. It's like they are saying: 'OK you forced me to wear a mask but you can't force me to do anything else to stop the virus.'

    Where did you find those stats you quoted? Got link?

    Fortunately the death rate remains flat.
    And, we're never told by the CDC how many cases are actually confirmed vs suspected and probable. Convenient for the fearmongers.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    November 2020?????????????????

    And, which "confirmed" cases are actually "probable counted as "confirmed"?

    Flat death rate as of TODAY'S date which is about a thousand........not the future.

    Why hasn't the President ordered the results to be made public? Is it because you think Trump is among the fearmongers?

    #COVID45 is terrified that the real numbers are even higher than what is being reported. Most epidemiologists and other public health experts agree that it is likely to be far higher than what the official counts are.

    Which would be why he's hiding the numbers just like he ordered the tests to be slowed down. Anyone who believes the CDC is deliberately masking the numbers then gives Trump a pass on the CDC numbers is only fooling themselves.

    The CDC results are publicly accessible daily. Hopefully, with the new way coming up results will revert back to the way we started
    prior to April 14th; the way the rest of the world has done it consistently by breaking down results by suspected, probable and confirmed (by lab results)
    instead of rolling all 3 into one gigantic misleading number.
    We'll see. It's hard to get the horse back in the barn, as the saying goes.

    POVID wants to pretend the pandemic is over, but really it is surging.

    Why else the order to stop reporting to the CDC?

    Expect worse. Capital must be saved at all costs. First the republicunts asked us to sacrifice our elderly. Then they asked us to sacrifice our youthful front line workers they scorned as "unskilled labor." Now they're asking for our children to die for the dear leader's re-election.

    Make no mistake; this is the logical second to last step of unfettered republicunt governance.
