All those so called "patients" are paid actors!!?!?!!??^&?@!!$!&^@+crazyland&*%^&

Part of it must not be fake; TX canceled the State Fair.
Part of it is worse than fake. With the exception of FOX news + talk radio/ most ignore the 1% kill rate/still close to that in TX.
And sarcasm, who would have thought with mob/rioters/screamers/crowd, the virus would have spread?????
How dumb can people get; some TV doctors rubber stamped the rioters/screamers as a just cause. Ok; payday some day.

It's incredible when a pandemic has hit the US this hard that there are dumb asses on here still calling it as hoax or debating safety precautions. Of course, that's also a major hint why it's hit the US so hard. Conspiracy theories and overdone political bs has taken a huge part of the US landscape since 2008. This has hurt dealing with the virus.

Perhaps if the news hadn't spent its good equity being so political and lying to us for so long, we might believe it when it is reporting something. But the fact of the matter is it is so tainted and toxic and partisan that one side will never believe the other's no matter what anymore. There IS no more news. It's just spin.

I mean, taking a virus and making it political. Really? But yep. Here we are.

The doctor says there are 2000 Covid patients in his hospital. Did you go there an count the patients ??
Do you actually understand what you post?

some "doc" on twitter comments, implying that Houston is being overrun. I show the data collected for Harris County (which is essentially most of Houston proper). Yeah, I understand my posts. And more importantly, I understand yours. Complete with intent.

Exactly. As kids we learned ''the boy that cried wolf/ so much we knew he was a fake liar.''
Id like to see a law requiring ''renaming most news= ''Ministry of Propaganda''/LOL
Even worse the fake news, they tend to report all but the average low death rate of this virus/ 1%. [2020 quote; doctor/senator rand paul said ''the flue killed more in Kentucky than this virus''
And there are many counties in TN with no virus deaths;
Memphis has waaaaaaaay more deaths than Nashville , but both are about the same size...……………………………………………………………………………………………………………….NPR believe it or not, whined about the virus seems to be racist/sexist.

According to the Whiteys, Houston is fine! It's quite common for refrigerator trucks to be parked outside hospitals !!?!?!

Riiight. Remember all the stories about the refrigerator trucks in New York? Nothing like going to the well for the same story over and over. Remember that photo of all the body bags that was later determined to be from Africa? Good times.

Oh, and why does race always have to come into your posts, Covertibility?

Direct from the CDC's website. All deaths, by week, the last 3.5 years.

Most recent data as of week ending June 27th will change as more deaths are reported. So according to the "news" we would see massive spikes in these weeks once 14 more days are passed. We shall see.

Right now it looks like a slightly above average year.

And to discredit Fauci is incredibly dangerous. I can’t believe what’s going on with Fauci and the White House. Stupid.
