Aired on 11/14/2020.

'Exhausted': Tsunami Of Covid-19 Cases Pushes Health Workers To The Breaking Point | Rachel Maddow
You’ve got to start filming the wards. Unfortunately. That’s the only way you’re going to get the public to change behaviours.
Stock footage. This is 🐎💩.
@G.W. Rick Hospitals are quickly becoming the place where people go to die not heal. In El Paso, TX that is already happening. It happened in Italy and NY. Now it will happen all across the US. This is the result of Trump’s and Republican herd immunity ignorance. Those of us intelligent enough to protect ourselves will survive. The deniers will start rapidly dying off once the hospitals reach capacity. I recommend you watch the Level 1 Biohazmat protection videos on YOUTUBE to be better informed on how to protect yourself as the numbers of carriers increase. Soon, you will be walking among Covid positive carriers everywhere. Level 1 protection is easy to modify with standard clothing but a good quality mask is essential. I use N95 masks from China through Amazon. Stay safe.
When Will the World 🌎 Realize Were living in a Simulation? The Government wants to just Push The Mandatory Vaccines 💉 which have Chips inside them . YES this is the Mark Of The Beast in the Bible! The COVID Cases aren’t ACTUALLY that high, they use All types of Medical Cases to Claim it as “Covid “ to increase fear ! Wake TF up

Can the adults come into office and save AMERICANS
Thank you
Lmao…you think the kid toucher and hair sniffer is going to fix anything? Asinine.
This is what happened when a President is irresponsible and unfit to lead. If Trump told the people to listen to the Doctors and expert to simply use Mask and Social distancing is a must. This is what happened when so many STUPID PEOPLE IGNORE THE SCIENCE AND FOLLOW THE THE MAD MAN.
You mean the Drs that are constantly changing their tune?
@Kong 76 not true.
@Michael 534 don’t know what history supports that theory. Spanish flu surged until masks and distancing were firmly adhered to. Cant fo it sometimes and then have mass gathering. Doesnt work that way.
@Michelle Carter Dr Fauci said Feb 15th ” I would be more concerned about the flu than this virus”
” I don’t recommend the public needing to wear masks at this point”..
They do change their tune along with the CDC. To say I am wrong is asinine. A better response would have been.. well as the information comes in and science gets a better look we will adapt to those findings.
@Michael 534 They are successful, look at Japan and Korea, they were able to control the virus with lockdown and mask wearing. You could also see this in Asian countries during the flu season, they wear masks in turn reducing the spread of viruses. Much smaller numbers compared to America.
Also a lot of people break the mask mandate or go to gatherings which help spread the virus
Of his orangeness isn’t charged with the deaths then the us has lost its way.
@halalslagt en dansk panser og gør Allah glad truth. This is a plandemic.
Then that means he gets the credit for saving 9 million people right? That’s a 9 with six 0 after. 9,000,000 people saved.
How? How is anyone responsible for the actions of other people? A gross amount of those people did not take precaution and died, their personal decisions lead to that. How can you balme anyone but the individual for that?
Cuomo first!!

Wow I don’t understand why pl won’t listen to science wear mask 😷 NURSE NEED HELP
@Francisco Diaz alex jones said so right?
Because a good part of the country is actually insane.
If you’re actually having difficulty breathing with a mask, outside of a real health condition why? Are you spitting into it?
@James Godin hahahahah wow
@James Godin go work in a hospital for a week and tell me that

This is so crazy, the richest country in the world. In Sydney you can go through a drive thru testing station and get your results 8 hours later. America needs to up their game, so sad.
@SelfGoverning Loving Soul Reagan never answered for Beirut.
@Suzanne Santos and meanwhile Americans in the middle of a major pandemic are demanding to have large gatherings for thanksgiving & Christmas, while already seeing their cases surging because they couldn’t resist having mass gatherings to celebrate Biden’s win (or rallies for trump for the other side of politics) & Halloween trick or treating!
Then they look at Australia & say “oh you don’t have it because you’re small & isolated” um no, we don’t have it cause we were smart & used some basic self discipline!
OOfania, this video’s not really about testing though, more about the telehealth & drive through vaccination program in Melbourne to address kids not getting regular vaccinations due to fearing going to doctor’s surgeries & covid & the reduction in elective surgery during the pandemic in Sydney, but followed up by massive funding to support catch up surgeries & pushing through far more than usual as soon as things eased up, so as to be ready to focus on covid again at any moment if needed. America should have been doing that during summer, plus of course controlling covid properly! They’re STILL not contact tracing! So in reality, there’s no point them getting a covid test, cause nothing happens if they’re positive!
@Lilac Lizard ok I’m in Canberra having a awesome time, enjoy ya weekend mate 🍻🙌🏾🇦🇺

And now he is revving up his minimus for another get together, why should those people get a hospital bed when they get sick?
In DC now, you should come.
COmpassion? They are under a demonic thrall, they know not what they do
@Donnie TRUMP how’s your million maga trally going, did 200 people show up other than anti-government militias and roger stone’s army?
“In court today, Stone apologized profusely for his actions. Then he admitted something that most observers had expected for quite a while: He’s working closely with various members of the Florida chapter of the Proud Boys, the hard-right, pro-Trump, semifascist group with numerous ties to harder-core white-supremacist organizations. According to multiple reporters in the courtroom today, Stone has admitted he’s coordinating extensively with the group. Stone even said that Jacob Engels — a notorious alt-right InfoWars reporter and all but admitted member of the Proud Boys — has access to Stone’s cell phone and social media accounts.”

@Liberty Meister omg, please go back toyour nuthouse – there isn’t a single sane person on that thread – not one. WOW
tRump’s legacy: IMPEACHED one term president who SURRENDERED to a pandemic and LOST the popular vote TWICE
@begoneby 2021 You do know many other countries have confirmed the existence of the pandemic right
@begoneby 2021: there are no words to describe your idiocy! Bigger then the entire universe!
Hey, do’t forget he wants a recount so he’ll be the first president ever to lose the popular vote three times in a row – so much winning!
@begoneby 2021 The pandemic is here as is your ignorance of it but hopefully the virus along with the ignorance plaguing this country will BeGoneBy2021.

@Liberty Meister I’m not in US but I lost my job and economy is hit hard due to this “fraud pandemic” where I live, so the psycopaths involved in this fraud pandemic should be forced to pay damages to me too!!
This is happening because the man who’s demanding his job back is NOT DOING HIS JOB! One concession speech means Jack, Donny! Get out of your bunker and DO YOUR JOB! Donny is doing a Stalin!
Also because he said “wearing masks isn’t manly” and his sheep like cult followers all marched along behind him.

The con man in chief said we were turning the corner. He lied.
The con man in chief said it would be over by April. He lied.
The con man in chief said “it is what it is”. People died.
The Super Spreader in Chief has helped to spread the virus to more people and places.
The grifters are killing US.
Trump said the virus would disappear after election instead the US has record levels of infection
Fitting for this record-breaking failure of a “president”.
#BYEDON2020
Mitch McConnell is pure evil and he needs to be held accountable for this atrocity
We literally just had the chance to hold him accountable, and we re-elected him…
now guy””….LMAO
Biden will fix everything…LMAO
It’s amazing how people think a public holiday like thanksgiving is more important than the current situation.
Trump’s America’s turkey
When all this was happening and getting worse….trump was playing golf.
That is a generous desription of what trump does on a golf course…
Is it getting worse? Are you seeing it with your own eyes or just watching the news. I remember ABC news getting caught two years ago manipulating video of a fire fight supposedly in the middle East. Turns out it was of a training exercise in Kentucky. I don’t trust the news or what it shows.
I live two blocks from a hospital and it is operating at normal.
You misspelled the name. You mean PELOSI.
“‘Exhausted’: Tsunami Of Covid-19 Cases Pushes Health Workers To The Breaking Point” motivate us, the people of America, to redouble our efforts to rapidly find out at any given moment, including even while On-Line, who among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e. pre-symptomatic or asymptomatic) in order to #ConvinceItForward for them to call their doctor and to self-quarantine per their doctor in hopes of stopping this pandemic instead of having more #MourningInAmerica
Plandemic
When I say that people should take responsibility for their part in spreading this virus, my comments get deleted. Please, slow the spread! Wear a mask, social distance, wash hands. Too many are dying.😢
Forget enduring four more years of Trump, I’m not sure we can endure the next 67 days.
