Truly amazing but all along its been not able to keep mouth shut. I am not looking forward to President Biden but seems inevitable.

Not only does huffing Lysol kill the corona virus it makes it possible to watch the COVID 19 briefings on repeat.

Higher population density in Michigan than Sweden....just sayin'....could be a factor


I agree but Stockholm is larger than Detroit but has fewer deaths. Just saying you can't dismiss the Swedish approach because of neighboring Norway and Finland. It seems to be about the density of cities. I Iive in upstate N Y and no deaths on tri county area, but the state leads the nation in deaths.

Hopefully we'll have answers from this pandemic before the next, and know what to do.

Good points, Bill.

I wasn't dismissing it at all. Seemed to me Norway and Finland taken together was a fair comparison and found cases rising faster in Sweden the last two days. It was merely to satisfy my own curiosity.

When I read about percentages of people testing positive for antibodies anywhere, I'm disappointed the number isn't higher.

Basically, I'm just looking for better paths by other countries like maybe this.

I forgot people huffed Lysol. God that's nuts.

Maybe he thinks the kids eating Tide Pods were ahead of the curve or maybe it was done purposefully, to distract from stories like this:

“We need to significantly ramp up not only the number of tests, but the capacity to perform them, so that you don’t have a situation where you have a test but it can’t be done because there isn’t a swab, or because there isn’t extraction media, or not the right vial,” says Fauci. “I am not overly confident right now at all that we have what it takes to do that. We are doing better, and I think we are going to get there, but we are not there yet.”

Or another huge conflict of interest emoluments story surfacing.

He is a conman after all.

I’m with you DB. It’s gotta be a distraction. It sounds like something a 6th grade kid in science class would say to their teacher.

Arrrrgh. Forgive me.

Now he claims he was being sarcastic?

That's not how I saw it. I even remember him saying: "I'm the president and you're fake news" when Philip Rucker asked him about it later.

He's half right. He is POTUS but - We. Are. So. So. Screwed.

I've been patiently reading this thread and holding back comment for fear I'd say something really incendiary, provocative, crude (likely) or ignorant, lame or stupid (more likely)....but this statement is the most concise and true one I've read in this thread....  Wink

I’m just very sad for our country right now. It would be nice to get daily updates from Pence and the docs. That’s what we need right now imo. We are in dire need of consistency and stability. Enough is enough already.
