Biden tells Trump "step up and do your job" over coronavirus

[Truth Detector]

Thanks to Trump and your constant cultish defense of him, 5M people have been infected with COVID, 157,000 people have died, 40M lost their jobs, 20M lost their health care, and the economy shrank by 33%.

^Lying leftist loon thinks Trump's to blame and not the Chinese or WHO. What a fucking retard.

[Truth Detector]

He's not familiar with percentages. The death rate is flat.

He's not familiar with much of anything; other than stupidly parroting the bullshit he hears on CNN.

[Truth Detector]

He IS doing his job. He's whining. He's spreading misinformation. He's saying everything is fine. He's blaming the Democrats, the Governors, Dr. Fauci, and maybe even the tooth fairy. Everyone but him. Isn't that his job?

Wrong snowflake; that would be lying leftist fools like you, the PHONY media and the Party of the Jackass. If you had a brain you could comprehend the OBVIOUS.

There is no excuse other than incompetence for the HUGE number of deaths in New York.

The excuse is that we didn't know enough about the disease then to have an effective treatment regimen. That's why the death rate is lower now than it was four months ago.

But that doesn't explain the surge in cases in Texas four months after NY.

[ExpressLane]

And Suffolk is one of the most populated counties in NY.

In fact, Suffolk (1.5M) and Tarrant (1.8M) counties are pretty close in population.

Do you enjoy embarrassing yourself here?

The population Dallas county is 2.6 million Tarrant County is 2.1 million
Suffolk county 1.47 million. Not that close really. Why did you lie? Embarrassed?

Texas has a COVID problem in Houston about two weeks after several days of HUGE BLM protests. Coincidence?

Yep. Because DC, MA, MI and NY also had protests but they didn't see a corresponding spike.

But those four locked down when Texas didn't.

I was looking at the 2010 census figures. So my bad there.

But why are cases surging in those counties, but not in Suffolk county?

Fuck off you thread trolling, worthless, ignorant, race hustling piece of human filth.

You should kill yourself. You're a worthless, ignorant, race hustling piece of human filth. You'll always be a worthless, ignorant, race hustling piece of human filth. You're a moron. You will always be a moron. No one will miss you. No one would care. The worlds collective IQ would increase and it would save the valuable oxygen you waste with every breath.

So yesterday, Dallas county reported 382 new cases with Suffolk county adding 142

For Suffolk, that is .009% (142/1.47M)

For Dallas, that is .02% (382/2.6M)

Tarrant isn't much better...they had 303 cases / 2.1M is .01%

So it's worse in Dallas and Tarrant than Suffolk right now.

But why are cases surging in those counties, but not in Suffolk county?

Increased testing.Texas is doing over 80K tests a day and New York is a little over 50k.

[Concart]

Very good point...I forgot about the hurricane. That would certainly decrease reporting numbers.

I'm sure FL will be right back to the 10,000-case per day by the end of the week or early next week.

Yep, that had an impact, I just don't know how much. It does appear that the cases have plateaued. I'm hopeful anyway. That's what happens when you take more aggressive measures, like mandatory masks, closing indoor dining, gyms etc. Miami Beach has an 8 P.M. curfew. That makes a huge difference, but unfortunately, that also impacts businesses. But that's what you have to do. Once you're over that hump, you can slowly and intelligently re-open. You can't sling open the front door, but that's what these Trumptards and their orange God want. And they want to do it sans masks.

So, hopefully, the days of 10K cases are over for now (we had two days under that number before the hurricane). It is proof once again that intelligent measures work. The problem is, the virus doesn't know borders, and this will just spread to areas that don't have those measures in place, and maybe even start up in areas that have already seen a first outbreak (like New Jersey). Lack of a national plan is inexcusable.

Increased testing.

You sure about that? Texas' testing has remained pretty constant, and NY is testing just as much -if not more- than Texas.

So why are there a surge of new cases in Texas, but not in NY?

Testing in NY: https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/testing/...tates/new-york

Testing in TX: https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/testing/...l-states/texas

Gee, looking at those charts, it appears New York is testing MORE than Texas, yet Texas is seeing higher positivity rates (13% for TX vs. 1% for NY).

Only twice has Texas surpassed 80,000 tests a day, and NY has surpassed it once. TX just surpassed it for the second time YESTERDAY.

How come?

It's not because of testing, since NY is far outpacing TX's tests.

So it's because the virus is spreading.

It's not because of testing, because NY is testing more than Texas.
