Pandemic Playbook — In Saner Thought

I am weary of the total lies spread by that mental midget Donald the Orange about how this country was caught flat footed by the spread of this virus….. If he would learn to read then he would have been able to handle this disease in an effective way instead of the slap shot crap […]

There was NO DAMN reason to be caught flat footed and yet Donald was totally caught with his pants down.  (A familiar position)

CEOs were asked to remove masks before meeting with Mike Pence in Iowa.

But throughout the day there were clear signs that everything continued to be far from normal. Before the event in which the executives were asked to remove their masks, staffers wearing gloves and masks took the temperature of people who entered the building.

Even as health care officials encourage people to wear masks, those who think that the coronavirus threat is overblown are getting clear signals from some of the country’s leaders, including President Donald Trump, that it’s OK not to wear one. That tension has even led to violence in a few places as people who refuse to wear masks have confronted employees at stores that demand everyone put one on. Ultimately, “the president is not just failing to model good behavior,” writes Mackey, “he is actively discouraging it.” As of Sunday afternoon, the coronavirus had killed almost 80,000 people across the United States.
