Crowds flock to reopened Jacksonville beaches as Florida hits record coronavirus case

"over run hospitals?" where?
"dying in hallways" - where?

The nursing home deaths was badly handled by Cuomo who forced them to receive positive test patientsCuomo had all that extra hospital space that TRump provided -and by all accounts
he did not use it to distance nursing home patients..By definition these are high risk

why not?
Exactly. No "overrun" hospitals here, but the opposite. Furloughed medical workers, empty doctor's offices and ERs.
 
you need to learn to read past a headline.
They already had scaled down the beds / they have plenty of transfer space available as well

The state’s facility at McCormick Place has been scaled down from 3,000 beds to 1,000 due to a decline in cases, and only seen a handful of non-critical patients.

Chicago Department of Public Health Commissioner Dr. Allison Arwady said there’s “no doubt” hospitals are busy, but said systemwide there are 20 to 25 percent of beds available, meaning patients could be transferred if needed.
 
Why didn't the bastard use those hospital ships or the ventilators he claimed were desperately needed?
thata the thing. it wouldn't be a problem if Cuomo over-estimated the needs -damn near everyone did.

But to knowingly make nursing homes take in a positive tested resident?
he HAD EXCESS SPACE and he chose to put them in with an uninfected population!
That's really really bad decision making on his part.
 
Coronavirus spreads in a New York nursing home forced to take recovering patients
“It’s reckless and careless,” said the granddaughter of a 96-year-old man whose family withdrew him from a Long Island nursing home.

The coronavirus patients began arriving the last week of March, transferred to the Gurwin Jewish Nursing and Rehabilitation Center under a New York state mandate requiring nursing homes to accept those recovering from COVID-19, even if they still might be contagious.

At the time, the Long Island nursing home had only one known resident who had contracted the virus, according to the facility’s president and CEO, Stuart Almer.

A month later, Gurwin is battling an outbreak that’s killed 24 residents — only three of whom were hospital transfers — and one staff member, who worked in housekeeping, Almer said. And the nursing home is still mandated to take in recovering hospital patients known to have the virus, potentially increasing its spread in the facility.

Who the frick came up with the idea to send COVID patients to a nursing home?

Why would anyone do that?

SMH.

hyper-regulations do that. they might intend for ex to make sure the potential resident isn't "discriminated" against -
so they write a truly bizarre reg. that they are guaranteed entry. who knows. FUBAR
 
Name one false statement from that piece. Go ahead. If you claim it is 'fake news' how about you provide us with the 'real news' and tell us what's fake about it. I'll wait.
CBS is a fake news source because they dared to report the truth about Trump, making them forevermore a fake news source to his cultists.

you do better at it then i do. I really am amazed at the lack of knowledge by many.
Socialism is a fraud -just another dodge for government to run your life
although I make an exception for Medicare for all (even though we cant afford it)

But basic stuff like food rent housing, clothes etc -get off your butt and go to work for it.
Build a career and get ahead of the rat race, enjoy the fruits of your labor as you age..

But man. all that IS up in the air now - damn Chinese!

Socialism is basically just another bogeyman the right uses to frighten their ignorant supporters. And Medicare for all would probably cost less and get better results than what we've got now.

Probably? boogeyman? Socialism destroys a dynamic economy.
 
Pro-science people know to qualify their theories. The odds are strong that numbers of infected will increase.

The fact remains our nation was ill-prepared for this. We're spent all of our reserves and now Trump and Congress is just printing money. The budget deficit for 2020 is about $4T. That's on top of the $23T our nation is already in the hole. The GDP for 2018 was $21T, so our nation is in more debt than it generates, even in a productive "Trump year".

I have no understanding on why so many people think that having so much debt is okay. Maybe it is better if 10 million Americans die of disease so that the rest of the population can understand the consequences of their actions.
Trump thinks he'll just be able to declare bankruptcy and walk away.

That is true to an extent; the extent being that you can't order people to go broke. That's what is happening here. Even with Eminent Domain, which this is not, property owners must be compensated. The Left constantly bitches about corporations but what you are advocating helps the corporations by eliminating a great number of small businesses.

Trump didn't put us in this position, he just did nothing to help it. The problem is that our nation has expended all of its reserves, is spending more money than it takes as revenue and, now, is putting another $3T of debt on top of the $1T budget deficit. Don't tell me the Democrats would do much better if they were in the WH, because they wouldn't. Both parties blow taxpayer dollars like it grew on trees; the only difference is what they spend it upon.
Of course, Trump gave a big chunk of our revenue to the 1% with his tax cut.

pure socialism without understanding the tax load already born by the rich.

What you should be saying -and what I disagree with by Trump- is federal income tax needs to be expanded
more into the lower percentiles.
~~

"tax da rich" has already been done - yo might as just as well just start wealth confiscation and call it what it is.

Of course the REAL PROBLEM IS WASTEFUL SPENDING -but of course you won't go there being a tax and spend Dem
Of course, those lower percentiles are already living paycheck to paycheck. It's only the rich who can afford to pay more taxes.

Funny how you use my real first name yet if I used your real
name you'd have me banned, amirite?

You know God damned well you have personally self-identified as Tom Prendergast -- so this is obviously another intentionally malicious attempt to defame someone's character.
 
No forbidding people the freedom of movement is, forbidding people the right to assembly is. These laws violate the constitution.

And neither of those things is happening in violation of the Constitution. If you want to fly to Chicago tomorrow, you are absolutely free to do so. If you want to hop in your car and drive to Vegas, you are free to do so. As for assembly, like every constitutional right, it has limits. Those limits are enforced when the assembly in question represents a danger to the public good. Therefore, the number of people who can assemble is limited, and that's based on a threat to public health. Deal with it. It is neither dictatorial nor is it unconstitutional.

How about we allow SCOTUS and not mayors and governors to determine those limits.

Jacksonville is warming up rapidly, watch the virus disappear faster than a hotdog down Jade Dragon's throat! Vietnam is now opening up again, they've not had one CV19 death and only 270 cases.

Jacksonville had temperatures way above average since mid March. Nice job of cherry picking. Vietnams weather is no different than many countries that have higher than average infection rates. Nice try though.
