Florida officials alarmed as virus rages
Quote:
Recent days have marked a major turning point for the state, where Gov. Ron DeSantis — a Republican loyal to President Donald Trump — confirmed that the number of new cases had been rising because of a surge in cases, not because of increased testing. Florida on Monday confirmed it had recorded 100,000 positive test results for Covid-19 since the pandemic began.
A trade group representing the state’s largest industry, tourism, urged officials on Monday to crack down on dozens of eateries and bars that have failed to embrace capacity restrictions and social distancing guidelines — a remarkable invitation to pursue its own members.
You know to prepare for a shitstorm when DeSantis pulls away from the Trump playbook and the restaurant industry is snitching on itself.

The European Union will likely ban any travel to and from the US when they open their borders up next week. So much winning.

Arizona saw its total case count grow by 6.5% in one day today. 3500 new cases in a state 1/5 the population of Florida.
Arizona hospitalizations now growing exponentially

Are they shutdown? How long were they shutdown what point in the curve did they close/open? Seems like it spreading as fast as NUYC epicenter.

And all these people are there today to pack inside a church and play cheerleader for the president, spraying COVID everywhere as they scream "OBAMAGATE" or whatever this years hypnosis is:

It's okay though, the church has just confirmed that they will have an air filter running. On the high setting too.

Trump was asked if he was kidding when he said he asked his people to slow down coronavirus testing. He said “I don’t kid.”
In a normal world this would be the biggest scandal of a presidency. I just don’t get it.

That's going to come back to haunt him when the bodies start piling up in red states and the lincoln project starts running ads with that clip on Fox.

Here's what I say:
Testing, is a double edged sword.
In one way, it tells you you have cases.
In another way, it tells you where the cases are.
And you do a, good job.
So why is he claiming that he ordered his minions to slow down testing, and doubling down on the claim?
It's one thing to ignore something that is making millions of people sick and will kill hundreds of thousands of US citizens, but to joke about (or actually do) something that would directly hinder one of the few methods for slowing the spread of it would be...
Oh wait, it'd be exactly what everyone would expect from trump.

So in 14 days Houston is predicted to run out of ICU beds? I heard that they're already converting children's hospitals to non-covid adult hopsitals to free up space.
Hopefully morrow's doing okay down there. Seems like it's going to be a horrific few months, assuming they don't re-instate the lockdown or at the least mandate masks and get smarter about distancing/capacity laws.

After mid April the federal government abdicated any responsibility for testing. Trump decided it was totally the responsibility of the states. But he’ll still take credit for the 25 million tests. Honestly, the testing capacity in the US is pretty good now. There doesn’t seem to be much of a testing strategy and resources are poorly focused on where they are needed. I got tested for no other reason than I attended a protest, but my friend says in Houston you still have to be pretty sick to even qualify for testing.
