    I have said from the beginning of this to avoid blue areas. Neo-communist have a vested interest in spreading the virus and creating panic. People who hide hurricane relief from hurricane victims to hurt trump wouldn't think twice about spreading a virus. Old people who live in these blue areas are in grave danger. How many old people have died so Democrats can justify shutting down the economy and creating the recession they claim they need to beat trump? To spread the virus and up its death count, Democrats order nursing homes to take in Coronavirus patients. Meanwhile hospitals and hospital ships are empty.

    Why would they do that?

    If you have older family members in nursing homes in blue areas, get them out.

    The hospitals need to free up space and stable people are usually the first to go regardless. But then stable in this case still means highly infectious. But these people are still people they need care and have to go somewhere. Its an absolutely horrible situation and it has to be just terrifying for everyone involved. Government should get creative and try and find a way to consolidate recovering people somewhere. Find a hotel to rent out or something.

    What was that hospital ship for?

    Why did it go unused and why are people with a virus sent to areas full of vulnerable people?

    Doesn't seem like a good idea if you're trying to fight a virus.

    Releasing felons from jail, placing highly contagious patients into one of the most vulnerable environments imaginable. How anyone can support Democrats is baffling. But lets worry about every word Trump says and turn a blind eye...

    I'm really starting to believe the Democrats are involved with this virus just like they were in hiding hurricane relief from hurricane victims. They seem to love shutting America down and get off on things like filling skate parks with sand. As impeachment was failing, they were cooking up this virus as a plan b.

    I really hope only Democrats are in nursing homes in blue areas.

    There is at least two Republicans I know of releasing prisoners as well. Sheriff Chad Chronister of Hillsborough County Florida released at least 164 so called non-violent inmates including one Joseph Williams who went on to allegedly murder someone the very next day. Also AG Barr directed the federal prison system to release non-violent "at risk" inmates namely elderly/sick ones. I don't have a figure how many were cut loose there.

    I agree except for the last sentence. Half the residents are to senile to see where their democrat party of yesteryears is not the same and ballot harvesting is rampant in nursing homes.

    Democrats should be the first to feel the pain of their policies. If you have parents in a nursing home in a blue area, get them out.

    If I had to choose who would be victims of Democrats, I would choose Democrats.

    I wonder how many people who needed the hurricane relief hidden by Democrats, were Democrats? I hope most of them...

    In their defense, I must be overlooking some other factor or consideration they had or just a Mistake. I cant imagine this was intentional.

    I'll leave it at that.

    And this would not have been necessary if the system had not been swamped

    How long did it take for testing to start in the USA?

    And that hurricane relief was "accidentally" hidden while Democrats wrote stories about how trump hated brown people. Democrats say they want a recession to get rid of trump. Why would you put this past them?

    Let's send the virus patients to a place full of people who can easily get it... whoopsiez...

    Not where I would have sent them.

    Why would you send people with a virus to a place full of vulnerable people when you got a empty hospital ship?

    Doesn't seem like a logical thing to do.

    Easy for you to say, the US population is well over 300 million and Democrats would have cried a biblical flood, if we sealed our border, like Ozz. BTW what is the population of OZZ?

    That's Puerto Rico's thing, bunches of water, whatever. they've got a bad rep. Certainly bad optics.

    We'll probably find a warehouse full of masks somewhere along the line.

    Anyway, just not seeing this as an outrage moment for the time being, opinions may change but I cant imagine harm was meant intentionally.

    It was not about sealing borders

    It was about identifying and responding appropriately in the beginning

    Do you honestly think it has been easy for a country that traditionally relied on tourism for a significant percentage of its GDP to wipe that income off its map?

    It was never intended for or outfitted for covid patients

    That happened all across the nation because there was no alternative

    It was not political and it occurred in red states and blue

    I’M SENDING COVID-19 PATIENTS TO NURSING HOMES, BUT ALSO I’M PULLING MY MOM OUT:

    This month a consortium of Mid-Atlantic newspapers under the USA Today Network detailed the policy in Pennsylvania and other states that’s ordering nursing homes to admit medically stable residents infected with the coronavirus.​

    Spotlight PA, a partnership between the Philadelphia Inquirer, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, and Harrisburg’s PennLive, also found evidence the Pennsylvania Department of Health drafted a quick strike plan to protect nursing homes in March, but never fully implemented it.​

    In the meantime, some facilities have become death traps. . . .​

    Secretary of Health Dr. Rachel Levine was asked by a reporter Tuesday about her mother being moved out of a long-term care facility, Levine said she was allowing the wishes of her 95-year-old mother to move from a personal care home to a hotel.​

    Death is for the little people, and their parents.

    First of all, people avoid the hospital due to costs. They don't want to be ruined. Second, they will chase you out, and tell you to call first next time.
    Just because the hospitals are empty cuz eone is avoiding them like the plague, doesn't mean they want to take care of barely and slightly symptomed covid patients.

    There are people having long term stroke damage, due to avoiding the hospital. There needs to be tents, and tests, and germ scrubber AC. And employ the recovered, now immune. To make hospitals seem less like guarantee of infection and then death.

    There are many elderly and vulnerable, who are asymptomatic and slightly ill, too, ya know.

    In a GOOD leader, we would have seen testing, contact tracing, EARLY and often. We wouldn't have had any of the costs now, or few at least. It was Trump DENIALISM of things he wishes weren't true. Had he heeded the MILITARY INTELLIGENCE he was receiving, we would be miles and miles ahead.

    I want to point out something about the collective lately. They are pushing this "contact tracing" stuff a little much. It's like the American Democrats see what the Chinese Democrats are doing in China and try to find ways of doing that here.

    Nothing good can come from "contact tracing".
