You know, it just might be a problem that “experts” are “scratching their heads” and can’t explain why states that have opened up are seeing declining COVID-19 cases while states still under lockdown and with mask mandates are now seeing their cases (and hospitalizations) skyrocket:
TODAY ~ Today on TODAY: Why are COVID-19 cases dropping in states that are lifting restrictions and climbing in states with strict rules in place? We’ll go behind the numbers that have health experts scratching their heads.
{Cont.} Some states with stricter rules are now seeing surges in COVID-19 cases, while many others that rushed to reopen are experiencing sizable drops. The numbers have experts scratching their heads. @SamBrockNBC has the details.
You wanna know why you worthless liars are now scrambling to wipe the egg off your face? Because your so-called "experts" are simply clueless hacks who were (and still are) trying to push an authoritarian political agenda - and you were (and still are) their willing propaganda toadies. "Rushed to reopen"??? We've followed your BS for over a year. The reopening has NOT been rushed. In fact, it's way overdue. So, FU.
Melanie ~ In TX, my kids' school district (face to face and virtual) gets tested once a week, and have for months. This was also extended to families returning from spring break. My husband and I are vaccinated. People are still wearing masks everywhere. TX is doing what they need to do.
And WTF are they talking about with that “rushed to reopen” language? How long should we stay locked-down anyway:
Easy Pretzel ~ Low testing rates are why cases are down. Must be why hospitalizations and deaths are down too.
Also now it’s 21 days before an outbreak shows up because the 10-14 day lag didn’t happen, so they need to move the goal posts to support their narrative.
Here in Texas, restrictions go into place whenever Covid patients occupy more than 15% of total hospital capacity for seven consecutive days. On the news, this morning, that rate is currently at 3.4%. So, again, TODAY - FU and your so-called "experts."
One day, these “experts” will have to admit they don’t know what they’re talking about and that they’ve just been guessing all along:
Gerry ~ Is it possible - just possible, mind you - that we haven't really nailed down what is important in stemming transmissions and the things we are arguing over aren't the primary factors at all?
