  1. It’s terrible that Trump supporters and millennials simply don’t care about this!!! Humans are so stupid

    1. HUMANS ARE STUPID INCLUDING YOU RIGHT? Why don’t you try some humans are stupid. Romances entry domus

    2. It is not really fair to bunch Trumpists and millenials together.
      There are a lot of very responsible millenials taking this very seriously.
      When teens behave stupidly you should in stead adress the parenting.

    3. @Anette A-A and remind yourself it includes you too… You’re a special kind of stupid

    4. @REAL BLACKS KNOW THE TRUTH if you read my reply the way you should have, I replied that the person who wrote human beings are stupid should try saying some human beings are stupid instead of generalizing. I won’t stoop low to your level and write what you wrote to me. Have a blessed day

  2. It will be hard to stop Covid19 with Moscow Mitch dis-allowing enough money to be given to Americans so they can stay home for least 6 weeks. (Wealthiest country in the world? … yeah, the money is there.) At this point, with masks being the only measure taken, school aint starting until December. To prevent that social complication, America has simply gotta stay home and isolate for six weeks. Its the best thing to do now.

    1. 20,000 lies! i was still reporting 18,000 lies. Guess I’ll have to update to 20,000 lies & counting.

    2. TRUMP LOVES FREE SPEECH!

      I saw the school blasting disinfectant around the room, That wont stop covid 19, If the rooms use’s a common air supply, air conditioning, if they do not have reverse pressure, they will become petri dishes. I am telling what will happen, this is not a guess.
      Second, in the FALL this will become much more Dangerous, it will spread by contact and stay on surface much longer than right now! You better get fauci to run this operation, or you will not survive! _____(0~0)_______Killroy was here!
      Third The children will mostly catch it from the bathrooms and doors! But it will spread and live in the air ducks and spread at will.
      Forth If we don’t stop playing with this virus, and keep using lysol, it will simply morph. and YOU DON’T WANT THAT! TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!

      THERE IS SOME FREE SPEECH!

  3. “Oh, it’ll just go away. It’ll go away. It’ll disappear. We’re doing the most tests, beautiful tests.”
    s u r e.

  4. t’rump: I wish this pandemic would go away.
    Everyone: Then make everyone wear masks for a month.
    t’rump: But I don’t wanna!!! 😫
    Everyone: Is it Nov 3 yet? 🤦

    1. @Manuel So unAmerican nationalist traitors can vote for him. Fortunately, they are a minority. An offensively loud and dangerously misinformed but a minority nonetheless.

    3. @Positive Patriot I don’t know where you get your information from, but this virus most certainly doesn’t have a survival rate of 99.97%, SCIENTISTS put it at between 99% and 96% and if you’re too dense to realize just how much of a difference that makes in a population of millions, you’re even stupider than i give you credit for.
      Stop spreading this sort of dangerous misinformation, or you’ll make things a lot worse for everybody.

  5. No proven lasting immunity to Covid-19 has been shown so there may be no such thing as “herd immunity”.

    1. A study just came out yesterday or the day before stated if there’s immunity, it doesnt last longer than 3 months.

    2. china said that in december but what can you do with the butthurt race i’m so special “People” but you got the Ad5-nCoV vaccine from china too many countries getting it too canada saudi arabia brazil etc to speed the Procedure and finish the third trial.

  6. There are no Second Chances with tRump! First we have to get rid of him this November & only then might we begin to recover from all the mayhem tRump does on a daily basis.

  7. What’s the big deal? Just put the mask on when you go out. Its literally 10-15 inside a store 🤷🏾‍♀️ just put the little mask on

    1. @Fifth Wall Radio I wear the mask at work. I dont mind it. I feel more protected. I visit my 89 year old grandmother every weekend. I feel better about it knowing I put on a mask when I go out and take my vitamin C ❤

    2. Jupiter stars you are obviously a compassionate person and a small act of putting on a mask you are not only decreasing the risk of catching Covid 19 you are exponentially reducing the risk of spreading it.
      I hope you and grandmother get through this and stay safe.

  8. There will be 500k dead by November if trump doesn’t take action and governors like desantis dont do the same….

  9. Herd immunity is not a strategy. Medical experts assume it is possible, but they are by no means sure of it.
    The next few months will likely show if reinfection is a risk.

  10. Trumps about to control the information coming out of hospitals to make this magically disappear. Welcome to your dictatorship USA.

  11. The administration has ordered hospitals to bypass the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention and, beginning on Wednesday, send all coronavirus patient information to a central database in Washington. It’s getting pretty fascist out there….

  12. All those Americans concerned about their pseudo-freedom, ready to question science because of a lack of education and culture : here you are served! What is the point of being a developed country if its people are ignorant ?

  13. Believe him, he has ALWAYS spoken very frankly. His analysis once brought tears to my eyes. Let’s Go! We can do this! 💯 🇺🇸
