It does not have to be hospital vs economy.. we’ve had five months to convert arenas, building, convention centers into hospitals in anticipation of a second surge, that was literally the purpose of the 4 month shutdown.. what they chose to do with that time I don’t know.
Correct. They were busy calling it a “hoax.” The US has not expanded the hospital system capacity nor established a contract tracing system. Round two of lockdowns is inevitable. We’ll figure this out eventually.

During the height of the spread, the US Navy brought in ships to NY and set up floating hospitals to support local hospitals. The ship hospitals were never used and were quickly sent away.
Not to mention the field hospitals built by the Army Corps of Engineers that weren't used either. Then there's the 30,000 ventilators they said they wanted.

I think businesses should remain open if they want (liberty, who'd have thought?), but everyone should be encouraged to take precautions. Be creative, like the six foot spacing on the floors, plastic barriers at the cashier, wear a mask, wash your hands, etc.

I agree 1000%.. it’s one thing to recommend to the public not to go, but to force businesses to close just seems like more power than a local government should have ..

I agree in theory, but what we are not remembering here is governments did Not know krap about this virus when it broke out. Add to that the UK ‘expert’ with sh|t software that predicted 2 million US deaths and we had a radical initial government response…

It's getting more tyrannical. They're even floating the idea that people who've tested positive should have they're movements tracked, as well as the people they've come in contact with..... Wouldnt that be against HIIPAA laws?

Yes, but the leaders of Florida, Arizona & parts of Texas have closed bars, restaurants and gyms AGAIN.

Recommendations do not work. This is a macro issue. If it’s not mandated by law with enforceable fines, people will opt out. That’s self defeating when combating a public health crisis.

The local cops in my area just sued the health department and forced them to turn over the names and addresses of all covid positive patients. They're scared of not knowing who is positive so they can protect themselves by avoiding those people. And this is in a small town environment where everyone gossips, so confidentiality is an illusion.

It never was never worth shutting down the economy over, as others have said, the people that died from it were already terminally ill and already on death's door.
It was worth it for Asia, maybe not America, obviously you guys there have different morals, customs and basically lack of respect for the elderly.

We in Asia know that shutting down will cause untold number of millions to suffer but we also know that if the virus is left unchecked, the economy WILL crash HARDER.

Sometimes I wonder if you people here have had enough vitamins as a child, critical thinking in the brain might have been disabled.

when they ask me to wear a "mask" I say, "my doctor says not to wear a mask due to my health condition" (lie) and if they ask my health condition I tell them "none of your fvcking business, as per HIPAA laws"

Good, keep up the good work.

End of the day, the entire world will get to see how Americans attitudes helped and when it gets so rampant, we also get to see how you guys react.

Maybe it's inevitable that 1 country should be a petri dish for this virus and we rest can gather real time data.

you Do know that they've just converted regular "flu" deaths to coronavirus deaths don't you? and choking on hotdogs, falling down stairs, drowning, drug overdose, oap that's coronavirus, hit by a bus, coronavirus, this is Purely a tyranny placed on America and the world by the Billionacracy ongoing for a couple decades now. This is a sinister hostile takeover, to entrench themselves in their power even more stomping the masses down away from them even further. They are wearing masks for Show only, a virtue-signaling to mislead the masses, as always. Women fall for it, weak men fall for it. TV-addicted people fall for it. MSM-believers fall for it. I've been unplugged from the sick psy-ops controlling our world, our media, since September 2005 when I shut the TV off, for good. My mind has expanded on its own away from the chaotic (terrorist) attack from the airwaves for 15 years now. I had a plasma 52 inch 2010 that shorted out after only a few years solely for the use of blu-ray (for company) and my computer. Since it broke, no replacement. I simply read pre-1970s books now. All news, due to Youtube bannings of the people I was subscribed to, enters my mind via Bitchute, and maybe SoSuave.

I feel so far ahead of the game cause my mind is left untouched by MSM. We Never landed on the moon 6 times flawlessly 1969 - 1972. Swindling has been ongoing since President Harding even (bootlegging), and even with Alexander Hamilton. There were railroads built for 20 times less than what funds were procured for the project. So that 19 times got pocketed by...Swindlers who never got caught. How much moreso would the "Swindling" have expanded by today (today's standards). Your problem is that you believe that the people who OWN everything in power are "Good." You think that people are Born "good," when really we are born Wild Animals (read Robert Ardrey's Nature Series) and need restrictions or restraint to give us "civilization." Otherwise, it's like the animals that fight back n' forth for territory in a most violent way. There is a balance. When that balance shifts to lawlessness, then violence (like a WWI, WWII, WWIII) will inevitably ensue. It's Nature.

Whatever man, just call covid 19 fake news if it makes you (and others like you) happy.

It will not change the fact that the entire world (excluding America and Brazil), whom by and large has opened their economy up WITHOUT a spike in cases, is moving along just nicely and buying popcorn to watch the drama unfolding in ur country.

And many years from now, it's gonna be in our history books on what took place.

You should be honoured that you are one of the men who facilitated it....
