    So in 7 months Obama had 4,000 dead and in 3 months COVIDIOT Tramp has 7,000 dead and Obama's response was bad and Tramp's response was heroic.Especially when the Right claim the Trump Covid-45 virus is just the common cold.

    RUSH: "Now, I want to tell you the truth about the coronavirus … I’m dead right on this. The coronavirus is the common cold, folks.

    CDC reported 60 deaths from an UNKNOWN influenza BEFORE the COVID-19 virus was reported in Hunan.

    For 12 months, COVIDIOT Tramp's body count for barely 3 months is 8,237 and at over 1,000 dying every day he will pass them in less than a week.
    Be proud, be very proud Tramp is number 1.

    Typical Right-winger, needs somebody to do their research for them before they reject it for not supporting what they hear on GOP hate radio.

    As you can see from the charts, there were influenza cases from an unknown new strain of an unnamed influenza virus starting from the first week of the 2018-19 influenza season. We now know the name. It was here long before Wuhan.

    The left has said this virus is far worse then the swine flu Obama/Biden did little about.

    What does this have to do with testing and it's effectiveness in combating the spread?

    "Vancouver is also the most densely populated city in Canada with more than 5,249 people per square kilometer (13,590/sq mi), and the 4th most densely populated city in North America."

    https://worldpopulationreview.com/world-cities/vancouver-population/

    The downtown core (near the top of the map below) is very dense. So far, even with its great density, that part of Vancouver has managed to avoid getting hit hard by COVID-19.
