China, like other autocratic regimes, would have no reason to create viruses to kill people when Russia have shown that it's easier and cheaper to simply throw them out of windows.

Why can't these people put as much energy into something that will actually do good... like the right to not wear pants.

The idiots went marching through a Target and looked like they felt so proud of themselves. All six of them or whatever it was.

So is this coming from the CDC itself, or the spin doctors in the Trump administration speaking on behalf of the CDC?

Here in Ontario there has some been some daily double digit spikes in some areas (Including my home in Ottawa) the past week, mostly due to idiots having large social gatherings and not taking the proper precautions and the continuing deterioration of schools and long term care facilities. This of course has led to long line ups at testing facilities and the Premier is a little on edge.
I got a little nervous my self because next week I do have to travel to Amherst Nova Scotia (Birthplace of Rocky Johnson) to attend to some family business and I was apprehensive that the travel restrictions and quarantines would come back forcing me to take off more time than I can afford.
Luckily this doesn't seem to be the case and I do plan on traveling smart going by car, filling out the proper forms before hand, taking a two week supply of masks/hand sanitizer and spending almost the entirety of my time there at my Father's home (Where there will be no more than 4 people.)

So is this coming from the CDC itself, or the spin doctors in the Trump administration speaking on behalf of the CDC? It’s impossible to know anymore, but since it lines up with what the director of the CDC himself says I’d say it’s the former. Besides, last night Trump gave up the ghost and praised the value of herd mentality to make the virus go away. Yes, I know the term is herd immunity. I’m not that dumb. No, I did not misquote the President of the United States talking on national television about the pandemic. He used that term. He cares so little that he can’t even learn the terminology for his plan to let a couple million of his citizens die.

Of course this is a question that should be answered by the supposed news organisation posting the information, but like much of the corporate media, they regard themselves as stenographers and nothing else.

Mofos on social media keep quoting “doctors” that have even less medical experience than I do. Quacks just got something to sell but jackasses can’t be bothered to do research to see if the person they’re quoting is legit or not.

I still want to know how the absolute f*** they plan on convincing us this obviously rushed vaccine is actually going to do anything, let alone be safe. Not that I don't think the top-runner candidate will work because it sounds like it does. But an administration proven to fudge data and flat-out lie isn't going to convince me an already-rushed vaccine is going to be ready in... 5 weeks.

My hometown is at the forefront of the homeopathy movement in the U.K., so you can imagine the carnage that is the town's community Facebook group, which is about 20% homeopathy advocates/practitioners and antivaxxers, 20% 5G conspiracy theorists, 20% Conservative voters who loudly and repeatedly declare that Boris Johnson is doing an amazing job and all we need to beat the virus is some good old-fashioned British bulldog spirit, while the remaining 40% are relatively sane people with a firm grasp on reality.

So, this is why high school sports was a bad idea.
My alumni lost a game due to half of their opponents being on two week quarantine. Meanwhile, another local high school had another player diagnosed with COVID.

My wife has been working from home since the end of March, today she has an email basically saying they are going back to the office in the coming weeks. Does someone want to explain to me why all these jobs want everyone back as cold and flu season is coming? Makes no sense at all.

It blows my mind how stupid people are. Target is a privately-owned business. They can make a rule on their premises that require you to wear a mask. And these yahoos act like it's infringing on their rights. If you don't like the rules in their stores, don't shop there. Buy your stuff online. Or, and this might be a bit of a reach, WEAR YOUR GODDAMN MASK!!!!

They'd never do that because that is stupid, but they could.

So I was in my county's building today to search deeds and me and my boss were the only ones to wear masks. One of the maskless ones even COUGHED WITHOUT COVERING HER MOUTH. My boss (who I like, this is not the maniac who oversees us) was digusted but couldn't care less. I eventually told the secretary and there will apparently be signs now (don't ask why there weren't).

Seeing people get thrown out of stores for throwing tantrums about wearing a mask really makes me hope that we're finally going to reverse the uniquely American idea of "The Customer Is Always Right" for good.
After working at a Panera Bread franchise for almost 3 months now, I can say with certainty that the customer is at least 75 percent wrong on a good day.

I had a co-worker go off on his freedoms are being restricted by having to wear a mask in public. He got pissed at me when I told him he had to wear pants and a shirt to the store.
