Chris Hayes On What A Swift Response Means In A Pandemic | All In | MSNBC

    1. Bob Loblaw lmfao! Trump is the fire fighter that shows up days after the alarm has been pulled, sprays gasoline on the fire, blames it on the former Fire Chief, figures out a way to make money off of it, sells the fire truck and when the real firefighters come and put the blaze out finally, he takes all the credit for it!

  1. THE testing in the mid west is so low because of the open spaces the republican governors say a large testing is not needed. foolish

    1. The states with low numbers test people in hospitals for sure but aren’t getting the positives or deaths to warrant widespread testing of everyone that isn’t hospitalized

    2. darknite 123222 Take a drive to the morgue in one month and come back with the number of body bags.

    1. Florida is still not “closed up”, and Spring Break wasn’t really the issue. Some news cameras filmed people on the beaches, and ran with the “Spring Break” story, but Florida’s real issue is its workforce. As a “right to work” state, there are virtually no unions and pay is low. Employers offer cash under-the-table to (sort of) offset the low wages, and to avoid payroll taxes. Thus, a substantial part of the workforce isn’t on anybody’s books anywhere, and therefore would not be able to collect any kind of unemployment or “stimulus” money. They’re keeping them working so they don’t starve and riot. Meanwhile, the death toll keeps climbing. They also have a pretty strong consortium of businesses that fly undocumented Guatemalans in and out of the country on a six to eighteen month rotating basis, and provide them with fake IDs. Those who are here during the pandemic are stuck here, but their employers don’t want them trying to collect unemployment with the fake IDs they gave them. Every single politician in/from this state is very much aware of this.

  2. *🤔..and when it’s you or one of your family members in those continually climbing Death Statistics?*

    *Trump: “Oh Well, Never Mind, what ya gonna do.🤷‍♂️*

    1. TOTAL AND COMPLETE MENTALLY UNSTABLE LUNATIC VERY DANGEROUS FOR ALL OF US WHILE HE IS STILL IN THAT POSITION…

    2. Funny. I heard Trump saying how upset he was because people close to him have died, maybe one of us should clean the wax out of our ears

    3. @Minnie Minosa These “people close to him”…..these like the lots of friends he had that died on 911? FYI, he didn’t lose anyone on 911. Google it.

    4. @imiss toronto Google it ? Sorry Google isn’t a news source , really not something you can ” Google :”

    5. With the power granted to him by the all mighty, Donald Trump has ended death, from any cause other than wuhan flu. Look it up, if you want him to be responsible for the virus from China, you should give him credit for the people who stopped dying from everything else.

    1. @Rick M Actually there is plenty of good information out there if you take the time to look. Just avoid trump’s nightly fluffing sessions.

  3. Too late america. Your mistake is that you have a President who yearn to wear a skirt and be a cheerleader.

  4. The decision that you make today can only be evaluated a week to two weeks after you make it. There are no short term fixes.

    1. Even longer than a week or two.
      First, the incubation of 2-14 days. Second, the symptoms. Third, the hospitalization. Fourth, the ICU. Fifth, death.

  5. Nobody has any idea how many people in Texas have COVID-19, because practically nobody here can get tested,

    1. @darknite 123222 actually the way to confirm quarantine and isolation measures have worked before those measures are lifted you mass test the population. Standard outbreak procedure. Or have your great military personnel never told you about the relief work they do?

    2. @vsedai yes sure. By the way have you seen the video of the mass graves in New York. Why the fk is noone talking about this. NY looks like a 4th world shithole.

    3. @Jedi Sith trump doesn’t want mass testing. But he wants everyone back to normal by end of April. More people will die. He doesn’t care, as long as the true numbers are not out there his followers can keep there heads in the ground.

    1. @Maja-Danmark Ok. Technically, the sentence was “And this is their new hoax.” That’s one sentence. Of course, there are 24 sentences prior to and following this sentence in the statement. That is the context of what was said, rather than focus on one sentence completely taken out of context. Snopes.com is reputable in fact-checking. They lean left anyway, and even they cannot find it. I invite you to see for yourself and see the actual meaning – in context, as intended.

      Because if you pick up a book and read just one random sentence per page, can you say you read and understand the book?

  6. Having to stay at home and watching depressing news everyday make me crazy. Hope there is a button I can press to filter out all those news. Sad

    1. You have to take a break from the news to keep your sanity. Force yourself to go 24 hours without watching any news, only do hobbies, movies, whatever else you enjoy doing at home. I thought I was going to go crazy until I did that.

    2. Get a Netflix subscription and stream all your content. Ignore *everything* Trump says and listen to the experts.

  7. Because everyone has not been tested we are going to have flare up after flare up after flare up for year’s to come.

    1. @autumn rain no that’s a perfect example of why YOU WANT government. Not me. They’ve got you so scared that unless the government intervenes we’re all going to die. F*** your lockdown I’m going fishing✌

    2. @autumn rain no problem things are getting wers in America and I don’t know if you know the latest update on covid-19 so if you do I am not insulting your intelligence if you don’t then you soon will.People have been mainly concentrating on the damage to the lungs by covid-19 but the lungs is not the only Oregon in the human body that’s being attacked.The other one is a persons HEART your heart takes Damage from covid-19 as well so please you and your family stay safe and please tell other people that don’t know especially families with a history of heart disease the knowledge that can be a life saver.

    3. @autumn rain please name a government that’s not chaotic and stealing the wealth of their people through fractional Reserve banking

  8. In today’s briefing (4/9/2020) Trump again misled the public.  He said the US has tested over 2M people. 2.4M tests have been administered as of today.  True statement but misleading.  We have only tested 0.76% of our population (327M).  South Korea confirmed its first the same date as the US.  S.K ramped up their testing rapidly.  To date, they have done 750,000 tests.  That is equivalent to 1.46% of their population. Also, they put restrictions on their people.  Their quick actions quickly slowed down the spread of COVID-19.  Our President’s denial and lack of action made us #1 in the world in cases and today we became #1 in deaths related to COVID-19.  The US accounts for 28.6% of the cases and 16.7% of the deaths worldwide.  Action says a lot about a person’s ability to lead and inaction or delayed action says even more about a person’s inability as a leader.  One out of 3,700 Americans has died from COVID-19.

  9. Having some states lock down and some states not locked down is like having a peeing section in a swimming pool.

    1. @Daniel lafferety The meaning: without containment, it spreads. Like an oil tanker leaking. Big difference if it has or does not have a containment boom determines how far it spreads.

    1. @GetoFly 313 Well, when NY normally has approximately 25 deaths a day it leaves 175 to Corona. I don’t call that fake. Do you?

    2. Your Nanna many states are not testing the dead, The shortage of test kits Won’t allow us to gather this important data.

    3. GetoFly 313 Yes, the key is that you have to be diagnosed with COVID-19 before you die for them to determine that you died of COVID-19. People who were not tested and who they do not know what they have, their death certificate lists that they died from pneumonia or something similar.

  10. The American Dream is on life support and there’s no money to pay the electric bill. W.J.

    1. @N LX if people in America were smart then we wouldn’t be relying on a federal bank system that isn’t Federal

    2. Slowing the spread of the virus buys time to find a treatment and a preventative vaccine. Fewer will suffer and die needlessly. But that seems to mean little to the spoiled, self centered and the greedy.
      Stay safe folks.
      Remember come November.

    3. @N LX I really wish that worked in America! I wish America had actual rules instead of suggestions because a solid 90% of people in this country are not wearing face masks… At all. Jobs that are deemed essential are mostly not essential, people also get scolded for wearing PPE that work in public service. They still have pen factories running, factories that make safety harnesses for building skyscrapers running… Pretty much everything except for dine in food service. There is only a very small portion of our country covered on news outlets.

      The news you see in the United States is very deceiving. you mostly see everything that is happening on the East Coast. The Midwest is just now starting to see numbers in the thousands and it’s climbing everyday. They don’t talk about that, and our president is talking about opening up the country. We are in serious trouble

  11. It’s this simple: Due to inadequate access to testing and limited mapping, investigating, and information, we have absolutely no clear picture of this. We have no clarity on the true number of COVID cases, deaths via COVID, or if there are potentially any mutations or altered strains of COVID. We are walking around partially blind.

    1. EXACT NO BUT WE DO KNOW ENOUGH WITHOUT ALL THE CHARTS THAT MANY ARE ILL AND TOO MANY HAVE DIED AND WE CAN KNOW THIS BY LOOKING AT 65 18 WHEELER TRUCKS ARE FILLED WITH BODIES AND THEY NEED 45 MORE … AND IT NEVER SHOULD OF BEEN THIS WAY … TRUMP CALLED HOAX DENIED AND HID IT FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HE KNEW WAY BEFORE IT GOT HERE AND COULD OF PREVENTED SO MUCH OF THIS …. SO DANGEROUS TO PUT SOMEONE IN THE WHITE HOUSE TO LEAD THIS COUNTRY AND PROTECT ITS PEOPLE WHO HAS NO KNOWLEDGE OF ANYTHING ABOUT IT OR HOW TO RUN IT .. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW AMERICANS THOUGHT A BANKRUPT REALITY T.V. HOST COULD RUN A COUNTRY EXCEPT HE LIED AND DECEIVED MANY ……HE HAS RUINED AMERICA ….AND HE HAS CAUSED MORE AMERICANS TO DIE ON THEIR OWN SOIL THEN THE WARS AND 911 PUT TOGETHER …. NEXT ELECTION LETS VOTE FOR THE GIRL ON CLUELESS…GOD HELP US ALL

    2. That’s exactly what they want a big mystery. Everybody will give up their rights in the name of safety for all because of all the variables people be so scared that they will be willing to let their government give them a bill of health like they are a horse so that they can travel in their own country. They get to decide whether your job is essential or not, and what goods you buy or should be sold and made. I rather live in Freedom and illness then in good health and servitude

    3. @Kat Hammett they don’t want the true numbers to be known this is why they are testing tigers and not people. If the true numbers we’re known right now they couldnt play The Mystery Theater game give up all your rights for the greater good BS.

    1. Mr Brightside There are a lot of ppl arguing under Sky News Australia clips about how sick and old ppl are robbing them of freedoms. How ppl who agree with lockdown are narcissistic who fear death. (Yes someone said that to me) and that women are weak! So don’t even get me going on these ppl. Selfish is the word. They don’t seem to get that a “pandemic” requires containment. That cannot be achieved by locking up certain groups & letting others freely transmit the virus. No one is actually safe. But try telling that to conspiracy theorist who think this is a “hoax” to give governments more control.

    2. @Mandy S Absolutely Mandy! But, you’ve got to expect this from a far right wing perspective like Sky News. It’s the platform for the likes of that despicable arsehole Andrew Bolt and his cronies.

    3. so did Germany….started serious testing. 500 000 a day! Hence very low death rates and hospitals can cope.

  12. trump and republicans don’t want testing cause if we find out what’s happening. We won’t vote for them

    1. Iray Z It fits their pattern of covering everything up perfectly. They don’t want science, facts or anything that would expose the fantasy world they choose to live in.

  13. Donald J. Trump has still mishandled the coronavirus pandemic from the get-go. Trump has mishandled the coronavirus pandemic because he allowed the states to compete with one another.

  14. That the self named” stable genius” has conducted a response to the virus which has resulted in the largest number of deaths than any other civilised nation is beyond debate.
