Muh Muh Muh My Corona (virus)

Excellent job of writing a story here. Bravo to Kyle for a great piece.

It was the hottest basketball sectional. Then attendees started dying of coronavirus.

 

I know of health care workers who use an oven to disinfect used N95 masks. Not optimal, but beats just continuing to use them.

 

It was pretty awesome to watch and how it brought everyone together. They flew directly over our neighborhood. Many people out, not near each other, though! And then to see all the reaction on social media was cool too. Not an every day thing for sure. It was a fun experience.

 

U.S. sent millions of face masks to China early this year, ignoring pandemic warning signs

That probably works as long as they take them off before putting them in the oven.

 

I've spent a lot of time in South Carolina. My father lived there for the last decade of his life. My older brother was there for before he died this past September due to a combination of poor health, drugs and stupidity. He was a big supporter of President Trump and fit just about every ugly stereotype of them. That is not true of his three children, who have all lived in South Carolina their entire lives. My oldest nephew has two young children.My niece is a nurse who works in a hospital there. As much as this worries me for them, this kind of irresponsible decision puts all of us in danger. The patience of the morons making that decision lasted all of two weeks. That's how long the stores and beaches have been closed.

President Trump has found a way to push his agenda while putting the blame on the states. His rhetoric is still dominated by the need to protect the economy and open up, but when it goes horribly, the governors will take the blame. He will happily throw them under the bus as he has done to so many others. I'm amazed at the stupidity of so many people in being loyal to man who has no loyalty to anyone else but himself. It is important to remember that President Trump shares in the blame for terrible decisions like the one in South Carolina. It isn't just a lack of leadership on his part, though that is clearly in evidence. This is his rhetoric. Republicans seem to think they are sticking together by protesting in some states and re-opening in others. Never mind that they are sticking together in doing something stupid and short-sighted.
