The Coronavirus Pandemic

[doulos]

China is the entire reason for this crisis, their initial response was to lie, cover it up and hide it from the world. If they had asked for help from the WHO right away instead of jailing the doctor who discovered it, the world would have had a 2 month head start.

They are still lying about their situation - if you think their numbers are going down you are beyond naive.

The Chinese government is uniquely and solely responsible for creating the crisis we are in now. The rest of the world reacted poorly for the most part, but that would have been a lot different if at any point in the debacle China had been honest. But they haven't, aren't and won't be. We all know it.

The SJW white-guilted virtue signalers crying racism and xenophobia seem to think that governments are a race. Because they say so.

Oh cool. I was wondering what the response would be when the death rate in the US skyrockets over the next couple months due to the sheer level of incompetence from their federal government. "It's all China's fault!" appears to be the plan. The base will eat it up as always.

So the US's response is crap but what about all these other country's who have more cases per million than the US?

Italy- 521 cases per million (pm)
Spain- 298 pm
Germany- 135 pm
S. Korea- 164 pm
France- 188 pm
Switzerland- 355 pm
UK-39 pm
Norway- 285 pm
Sweden-128 pm

In fact there are 56 countrys with more case per million than the USA at 22 per million.

Well this is just not true. The Chinese government certainly exacerbated things by initially denying there was any substance to the doctors claims of a possible pandemic, but Trump did the exact same thing here in America. Yes, China is guilty managing this pandemic horribly. They responded much too slowly and should have admitted to the world much sooner that they had a pandemic on their hands, but to say they are solely responsible for this crisis is just wrong.

This crisis was coming regardless. It was already spread around the world before the first cases were even tested for in other countries.

Because Republicans will vote for whoever is running for them. As I've said already a few times, they aren't voting for Trump, they are voting for their candidate and voting against the Democrats. The Democrats are voting for whoever is running for them, and will vote against Republicans.

It's less about voting for the person than it is for the party. It all come down to how many of the party faithful get out to vote, and how many undecided are willing to go with one party or the other.

This isn't always the case though. In 2016, many of the undecided voted for Trump because of their despise for Clinton, or didn't vote at all. Many didn't know the real Trump, they knew the reality show Trump. But he has now been exposed for who he really is. Also, in 2016, there was a bigger social influence due to naivety. This time there won't be.

Unfortunately, this post is not gonna age well.

Lets wait and see. As of right now I hear nobody criticizing any of these other county's, yet in this point in time were harping on the USA. What is this the minority report?

Yes China did respond much too slowly. America knew this but didn't learn from it so Trump is responsible for the severity of the virus in the USA.

America's COVID-19 infection numbers are laughably low, and in no way reflect reality. In my area you can't get tested even with a fever, dry cough, and a note from your Doctor saying you should be tested. lol

Hahahahahahaha, this is hilarious. In a sad and depressing way, of course. Gotta love the total ignorance of their "before" takes.

Honestly, this video alone should be enough to make any sensible person cut all ties with Fox News going forward.

Exactly at this point in time they are. They might grow or might not but right now Trump is being heavily criticized for something that hasn't occurred. There are 56 country's right now that have more cases per million, a lot of them are heavily left leaning such as Sweden and Norway, yet nobody's talking about them. This is hypocrisy at it's best.

Don't expect a regime change to suddenly make everything all rosy and amazing. You'll just see more stuff in the news that you agree with. Most of the problems will persist.

I didn't realize that the pandemic was over and we stop counting today.

Why even reference our numbers being lower than most countries if you agree that our numbers don't reflect reality? We are heavily criticizing the Federal Government for not taking advantage of a multiple week head start on this to mitigate the situation much better than it has been. They buried their heads in the sand and did nothing with all of that valuable time. Make it about Trump himself or don't, but the fact is that his regime bungled the hell out of this thing and are going to get a whole bunch of people killed as a result. I'm not sure how that is defensible in any way unless you are prepared to abandon logic and reason.
