This so so beyond belief I can't even come up with a comment on it. This NYC City councilman that is the head of the Health committee today suggested they are going to have bury people in parks.

Guess what he was suggesting back in Feb.

He corrected his tweet later and said he was just suggesting that it MAY come to that some day...... :roll:

Someone needs to clue this moron in to that fact that hospitalizations are plummeting down in NY so fear mongering is likely losing its effectiveness...

Its the former........Yeah hopefully it means the spread is slowing as these things typically do over a few months......
Louisiana, another hot spot, has falling numbers as well. Pretty much the story across most of America.

Meanwhile, Governor Newsom in California said today he expects his apex to hit in mid May...... :lol:

These power hungry local leaders are desperately trying to drag this thing out as long as possible. They've loved the attention.
Everybody loves the spotlight. I hope they wouldn't lie just to stay in it.
Probably less about lying and more about loving the new sudden power. Loving it enough to seek out models that justify holding on to it as long as possible, even if said models are proving to be vastly overblown.

The insane irony is that what he called fear mongering back in April was actual common sense precautions and now he is the one fear mongering due to a situation that he likely had a significant role in creating!!!!!!!! This guy might be the worst public "servant" in the history of the country.

NY times suggesting that Trump is pushing it ONLY because he owns a mutual fund that has Sanofi, the manufacturer of this CHEAP GENERIC drug as one of its hundreds of holdings. People are so f-ing sick in the head.

According to Trump’s financial disclosure, he owns between $1,000 - $15,000 of Dodge & Cox fund.

Dox & Cox’s fund has 2.9% of its money in Sanofi.

Trump owns 2.9% of btw $1,000 - $15,000.

Trump owns $29 to $435 of stock.

lol NYT didn't think anyone would do the math.

UW model is whacked.............

I can understand the model being off. Complex stuff

What I cant understand is why our decision makers decided to overreact to it. And why they aren't adjusting now that its clear it was wrong with numbers dropping all over the country.

Humble leaders will adjust to the falling numbers and start putting plans in place for a return to life in the near future.

Other leaders will double down and tell us the peak is still weeks away so we must close our golf courses until 2027.

Will be interesting to see how it unfolds.

Inslee just canceled the rest of the School year on..............April 6th. What exactly was the urgency to make that decision?

Great article on Sweden

Kept schools open.

Only quarantined those at risk.

Their numbers never spiked, and are falling.

We killed the economy for nothing folks.
