Popular Post Chomper Higgot Posted June 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2020 It is rumored hospitals are preparing for a spike in COVID-19+ve Trump supporters who attend his rallies. It said they’ve even coined a name for the health crisis they expect to follow Trump’s ego boosting rallies. A ‘Klandemic’. 2 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post johnpetersen Posted June 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2020 (edited) Governor Ducey of Arizona has reversed himself. He forbade localities from imposing stricter requirements than did the state. Now in light of the skyrocketing increase in covid cases he's given them permission to do exactly that. Arizona governor backtracks on mask rules as Covid-19 cases surge Doug Ducey will stop blocking mayors from requiring masks but stops short of issuing statewide regulation https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jun/17/arizona-coronavirus-covid-19-governor-mayors Maybe this is what finally convinced him? Arizona reaches new highs for COVID-19 hospitalizations as cases continue to spike Emergency department visits and counts of inpatient beds, ICU beds and ventilators in use for suspected and confirmed COVID-19 patients hit their highest-ever numbers Tuesday, according to hospital data. The highest jump came in emergency department visits, with 1,093 suspected COVID-19 patients treated Tuesday, compared to 956 Monday... As of Tuesday, 85% of current inpatient beds and 83% of ICU beds were in use for COVID-19 and other patients. https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/arizona-health/2020/06/17/arizona-coronavirus-update-june-17-cases-and-hospitalizations-climb-again/3203916001/ Edited June 18, 2020 by johnpetersen 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if we can just stop issuing Death Certificates no one will die, or so many people are saying. I support the right to freely assemble, for everyone, including the president's supporters. They're intelligent enough to weigh the risks, so I say pack them in tight. I'd like to see more people assembling to voice their beliefs: Proud Boys, Boogoloo, Klu Klux Klan and any Nazis left.

Popular Post bendejo Posted June 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2020 So, I'm seeing articles like this Quote The Trump campaign has put out conflicting figures on how many tickets have been registered for their June 20 rally in Tulsa, with campaign manager Brad Parscale now claiming 800,000 people registered for tickets despite the venue seating just over 19,000. https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewsolender/2020/06/14/trump-campaign-manager-says-800000-registered-for-tickets-to-tulsa-rallybut-the-venue-only-seats-19200/ Then went to the website where tickets are issued, and it was still possible to sign up. Quote On Sunday morning, Parscale claimed an enormous increase, tweeting, “just passed 800,000,” calling it the “biggest data haul and rally signup of all time by 10x.” He said biggest data haul. Draw your own conclusions on that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're intelligent enough to weigh the risks.......... I think you overestimate them. If, at this point in time in 2020, you still think it's a great idea to attend a Trump rally to sing his praise and listen to his stream of incoherent drivel then weighing risks is an ability that's clearly beyond you. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As has been stated by others, all the rallies are foolish events. However, there is a significant difference in the attendee demographics. One group is young and less likely to suffer serious complications from Covid19. The other group is older, more obese, and more likely to have chronic health conditions, all of which makes them more likely to suffer serious complications and death. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnpetersen Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Some locals in Tulsa are suing to stop the rally from being held on the obvious grounds that it's a public health danger. Here's what the lawyer for the Arena said in defense of holding the event: "Joseph Farris, an attorney for ASM Global, a Los Angeles-based company that manages the city-owned BOK Center, conceded that there were risks inherent in hosting such an event during a pandemic. “We certainly agree that the CDC and other relevant medical experts believe that this type of event is ill advised,” Farris said. “No question about it." https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/tulsa-arena-asks-trump-campaign-for-detailed-health-plan-as-oklahoma-supreme-court-hears-arguments-about-rally/2020/06/18/4e490308-b197-11ea-a567-6172530208bd_story.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Damual Travesty Posted June 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 20, 2020 As everything comes down to it, please allow me to simplify: Donald Trump will win re-election. The Democrat party is over. It will never survive the national humiliation of the number of indictments that will come down. The constant anti-Trump drum beat will not stop his re-election, the polls are conceived to deceive. Law and order will be restored in the USA, his rallies will continue, regardless of Covid-19 the lock down will end, the economy of the USA will recover, and the world economies depend on the re-opening of the USA for their economies to also recover. All of this despite the wave after wave potentially of covid-19 and whatever new virus comes along. Quit crying!
