Trump Talks Reopening U.S. As CDC Warns Of A Second Worse Coronavirus Wave | The 11th Hour | MSNBC

    1. @HolyChikin do what our elected officials tell us? Maybe, but more often than not, many are pushing an unconstitutional agenda.
      I’m not saying covid19 doesn’t exist, and I’m not saying certain people can’t get it (my wife and i are sure we already got it mid- February), I’m saying the government and media, along with numerous other countries are in cohoots to create this ‘new thing’. If you don’t believe that, you are in for a rude awakening. I can throw a salvo of information, sites and posts indicating as to such facts, if you’re interested.

    2. Ryknfjor “For sure” means that you have not been tested. It may have been the flu. You just don’t know. Remember… we were DEEP into flu season when this thing hit the US. I had the flu last year and developed pneumonia. Shortness of breath, aches and pains, coughing, congestion, headache, high fever. Could have been C19! Just don’t know! I could have antibodies and am over here washing my hands to oblivion for nothing! I have chemical burns on my hands from washing them so much. Since I don’t, I stay the course.

      I also learn a lot from History. The best example of this is the 1918 pandemic. It wiped out entire families, lasted several years, and claimed almost 50-million lives. This is what I spend my time doing. Reading historical accounts and learning. After all… if we do not learn from history, we are bound to repeat it’s mistakes. The way things are going currently with this Pandemic, we are doomed to repeat it. I pray I am wrong. I really do! If I am… I give you free reign to say “I TOLD YOU SO!” I won’t be offended in the least.

      I agree that the wizard behind the curtain has an agenda. Always has! They don’t care about anyone as long as the cash keeps rolling in. This is why I don’t pay much attention to what the media or the government says or does. They are all full of it and making SO MANY mistakes. We are being led by children at best. I have resolved to make my own decisions because my life and the people I love are at stake. Believe me, I miss my friends, I miss my family, I can’t get to see them because I am doing the right thing by everyone around me. I am on an island apparently because not many people are taking this very seriously. They are more worried about getting tattoos, massages, getting golf games in, hair cuts, protests, the park, etc. If everyone is going to go back to “normal” operation, have at it. Cases are back on the rise. The curve has not flattened at all. The fact remains that people are still dying; People are also still getting really sick. Without health insurance, those that survive are lucky enough to pay a humongous bill they they will never be able pay off. This isn’t just going to magically disappear as fast as it got here. We are all in for a long haul roller coaster none of us want to be on with no pukey bags. **sarcasm** It’s gonna be great!!

    3. @HolyChikin I’ve been studying tons on immunology, not that it’s my profession; but since the beginning of covid19, i have. My son was born late February this year, and when I’ve been researching and came across Dr Erickson with what he is saying corroborating with my research; the truth he presents is irrefutable in science, us “flattening the curve” actually increases the death cycle, prolonging the lasting effects of covid19. This is how the ‘second wave’ will strike. We just need to open up the economy to it’s fullest now. If you’re high risk, stay home. Me and mine aren’t. Secondary effects of the economy shutdown are WAY more of a problem than covid19 actually is.

    4. Ryknfjor The flu doesn’t not cause blood clots, the flu does not cause tissue death due to limited blood flow, the flu does not cause inflammation on a massive scale, the flu does not cause arterial inflammation, the flu does not cause viral pneumonia, the flu does not create holes in the lungs, the flu does not attack major organs. This does. SARS and the Flu virus are way different in what they do to the human body. Start looking at autopsy research conducted on victims. It is awful to see and read about but, that is where you are going to get the best insight. Might also be a good idea to get everybody tested so you know for sure. There are several strains out there. Just because you “believe” you got one, those antibodies will not protect you from one of the other strains. I did look up Dr. Erickson; he is basing his research on data in Sweden. A completely different country in a different situation than ourselves. He should be looking at countries worst hit by the infection because that is our predicament. One doctor in Bakersfield making a decision to open back up might be okay for his city… not for the entire country and most notably the East Coast. The infection is JUST getting warmed up over here. To get ahead of the infection we have to isolate the virus. Thus far, we haven’t accomplished that because people aren’t doing what they are SUPPOSED to do. Most people are like “lockdown schmockdown! Pffft! Not gonna get me!” These people are the problem. Then they complain because their favorite stores or restaurants are closed and they are “Sooooo BOOOORED!” If you make the suggestion of “read a book” you’ll get “I don’t read books” 😳 Dr. Erickson is also saying that social distancing does not work. Hmmmm… maybe because it is airborne?!??? Keep on your guard; Be safe and stay well! Everyone please!

    5. @HolyChikin it doesn’t matter how Dr Erickson is referencing Sweden. The virus doesn’t care. It’s based on human physiology, not countries. Also Sweden isn’t a 3rd world country, and neither are we. Look at California and New York they have super restrict stay at home orders with the highest death rate. Texas is the opposite(and we’re one of the first states to open up). Sweden had 260/ 1million deaths rate were as England had +340/1 million, with very restricting orders.
      Actually, a lot of “lockdown schmockdown” people are just against a tyrannical govt killing small businesses. I know none of those same people saying ‘I’m so bored’.
      Also, I’m WAY more likely to die in a car crash than ANYONE in my entire family tree contracting covid19 and dying from it.
      I work with old guys, they smoke, have heart problems, and they don’t wear a mask. They’re still here. Way more overwhelming evidence points to the contrary of MSM (which their whole agenda is to get you scared)

    1. @Joshua Archer The workers are important but this is business…. trust me companies won’t pay for another month. And as I said there’re too many that work for tips, construction, sales, etc. those need to go back work. If you think that the government will give more money… you’re wrong. We have to go back to work using masks, gloves, cleaning everything, washing hands, keeping distance, just like doctors and nurses deal with it.

    2. @Noah Balk nope I’m just calling it like I see it. My comment was neutral. Didn’t mention anything about intelligence, so now you’re just makin up stories in your head…

    3. @Emerald 🤦🏽‍♀️Tell Jesus that he made a mistake. *A very Yuge and tremendously horrible mistake*

    1. @Double Darrel you think those “sources” will go against their narrative? Lol they are all in on it wake up!

    2. @The one and Only
      “After the claims surfaced, the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, released a statement explaining why the EVENT201 simulation wasn’t related.

      Johns Hopkins organized the event, and they explained they didn’t predict the current pandemic but instead focuses on a simulated model of a different one.

      Their goal was to create a realistic coronavirus pandemic situation so that the members of the group could learn real lessons from it”
      While the event *didn’t* predict the current coronavirus pandemic, it did point out how unprepared the world was to control such disease. This was the purpose of the round table exercise

      Why don’t you give any proof for what you’re saying, you’re just saying random things without any information to back it up.
      If you want to be logical about this read the article before replying.

    3. @The one and Only You’re obviously trolling at this point.

      Are you really so bored you’ve resorted to trolling?
      There’s so many other things you could do with you’re time.

    4. @SouthSide Chicago Guess you missed the fact that states with Republican governors have the worst rates of infection…now who looks dumb?

    1. So who’s the protagonist, and for that matter the antagonist? Every since work shut down, I’ve been living in filler eps.

  1. I kinda feel bad for Americans but then again some of them literally did a protest. They really didn’t learn from Italy huh

    1. Tyedigh I have to argue with you here. Why do you believe this is serious? There’s not one lick of true evidence to support it being a real issue. Doctors and universities globally are debunking this. They are doing random testing and finding out that that numbers of infected are 10x what the media is saying. Which then brings the death rate down below 1%. At the same time they are finding in these test that the majority of people have the antibodies. Which only means this is not a new virus!!!!!!!! Or our immune systems can fight it off with no issue!!!!!! Ever hear the saying you can lead a horse to water but can’t make it drink!!! Like Jesus Christ!!! That’s you! The numbers that are posted by the media don’t show even half a percent of threat. The death rate is 4% by the media. By definition that’s not a pandemic or epidemic. You have a better chance choking on your food and dying or drowning before you die of covid. It’s just the deep state and mainstream media saying it’s bad. That it! At this point I’m feeling sorry for you. You can’t do math, basic comprehension or critical thinking. considering Its only the flu. And the media has demonized it. I’m taking my chances. Bring on the natural selection! You clearly can’t think for yourself and have to be told by the news how to live your life. That’s actually really sad and heartbreaking. On to natural selection!!! They already got you! I’m free! Let the stupid, lazy, old, over weight, sheeple parish…

    2. David Marks-Olver what do you know????? You know clearly have good critical thinking skills. This is all bs. Some of us can’t be fooled

    3. @Mario Remondino conspiracy theories. You’ll be on the next one by December. 🙄😂😂😂

    4. Italy has socialized medicine, and a large older high risk population. That’s what contributed to what happened there. See the data, the science.

    1. If the world was going to end, then the Most High would of wiped us all out by now. He could let it end now if he wanted to.

    2. SMOK3S except the 96% who get covid and live. But cancer, heart disease, obesity, diabetes, now there are the people who can say been good knowing y’all, they won’t see 2022 because millions of them die every year.

    1. Zidane Steiner only 30% of people have long term immunity. That’s what they’re not advertising at the moment… which strangely… I wonder why…

    2. I mean if your momentum is drifting you somewhere dangerous like a volcano, then it would make sense.

    3. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭our life is so miserable!!!!but GOD will see us truth Amen

  2. The corona virus will never leave, just like every other flu virus. Especially because of how easily it spreads.

    1. @namjooncansteponmeandiwouldthankhim The goal was never to get rid of it, you can’t . We just needed the public’s help in slowing the spread so hospitals weren’t overwhelmed and manufacturing could catch up to make PPE and ventilators. We succeeded in doing all of these things.

    2. @Zidane Steiner no we haven’t…….PPE and ventilators?!?!……..I can’t even get my standard masks delivered from Walmart yet.

    3. @Zidane Steiner yet china was able to stop 98% of cases in only two weeks by doing a quartine??? America for Ya. Always on the roll, but you cannot roll if you are dead.

    1. @Leopard Cup Pup Kryky you act like the disease specialists haven’t steered us wrong entirely. The who said that covid wasn’t a threat.

    2. @SAVAGE TUNER Tyson meat plant? Cargill Meat Solutions? Hazleton meat-packaging ? CTI Foods hamburger-grinding plant?
      Sanderson Farms Inc Georgia ? Aurora Packing Company ? JBS? and Tyson Cargill and JBS have at least 4 or 5 plants each closed at different locations
      The Chinese company did the right thing and shutdown , while the rest stayed open for nearly a month
      Factory farms are no better than a wet market , you keep fighting about China , and you don’t even realize what’s going on, until it’s to Dan late

    3. @Maureen Wessling well do the work required like the rest of us in the dam world , it’s not easy , we want our lives bac? you NEVER heard New Zealand crying or moaning and tonight we cautiously exit lockdown, it’s been 2 MONTHS EXTREME lockdown you couldn’t hack it,

    1. JimSweet Lol so you do admit that the experts were wrong but it doesn’t count because they were just a little wrong ? Give me a break 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

    2. @Savage Boxing exactly who are you arguing for?
      What are you saying, that unless someone is 100% correct, they’re not worth listening to?
      In that case, who do you say we should look to for answers? No one is 100% correct.

      The people to look to would be the ones with the highest chance of being right.

    3. ​@Savage Boxing
      I didn’t admit they were wrong. I believe you, when you wrote, that it was said that they got the first case wrong and then you say they got it right later on too. So, they were both, wrong and right, according to you. Knowing the right answer is good enough for you isn’t it or do they have to be right, right away? It only took them a short amount of time to get the right answer, but maybe for you they should have kept the answer quite until the figured it out. It’s not like they waited a year and came out with a new answer. Anyways, YOU were a lot wrong about what the EXPERTS knew.
      I have to think that you are not an EXPERT on what the EXPERTS know or close to being an EXPERT on who to look to or how to know why and how people know things.
      Other than EXPERTS, on any subject, who would you turn to instead, when wanting to know information on anything? Would you seek out non-experts because you think they would know more? That doesn’t work. After I explained all I explained, don’t you see the flaw in your logic? Unless you are studying the science of things yourself, no one knows more than the people who study it, right? All science is a little wrong at first until more knowledge is gathered. The world was thought to be flat for a long while. It’s not so much that they were wrong, it appears flat up close, it’s just they weren’t as right as they thought, now THEY KNOW more and WE KNOW more because of THEM. Do you see how that works? We KNOW because THEY are doing the WORK to KNOW and WE benefit from that work and someone like YOU complains THEY aren’t KNOWING fast enough for YOU to KNOW. The only way ANY HUMAN could be 100% correct about anything is if they had full complete knowledge of everything. You know that can’t happen right? You do see, if we knew all, all at once, then there would be no room for learning, correct? This is the process of course, since I feel I have to teach you how learning is done now. They way we get to knowing things is by a step by step process called learning. This is done by studying one thing and knowing it and then studying another thing and knowing that and so on and so on, until you’ve learn a lot. If you somehow think that is possible to know all right away, then I’d say you would have a good point in saying what you are saying, but the real point is, you are making a mistake thinking that people can be 100% correct at all times. If you actually thought that, then you wouldn’t have been so wrong either. Just because people know more about something than you do, it also means they can be wrong about anything too, they are just human. For you to point out the wrong things, in this case, just means you’re looking at it the wrong way. You should be looking at it this way. These people know more RIGHT things than anyone else and your critique of them is unwarranted and/or unreasonable, especially when you know so much less. It would be the equivalent of you watching Micheal Jordan shooting hoops and he gets 99 shots in out of a 100 and you are there saying he’s no good because he missed one. I think everyone would think you sound foolish doing that. Do you think that is a smart thing to say? To critique someone for not being really good, especially when they are way better at something than you? I don’t think it is very smart to say, but if you want to be the guy to put down experts when you are so much not an expert, then that is the way you want to be seen. You want to be a person who knows less about something and be the person pointing out that someone more knowledgeable might have missed knowing something and got it correct later instead of sooner. You might as well make fun of Einstein for not finishing high school and see what kind of reaction you get doing that. I mean, if that the way you want to come across, then I won’t say anything else. I’m not trying to put you down, I’m just pointing out or showing you, by detailed explanation and reasons, just how you will appear to others by saying what you are saying. It appears very foolish, unless you can explain to me how it doesn’t and how all of what I’m saying doesn’t make sense, but I think I’m making a lot of sense. You are just a guy pointing his finger at someone, who has expert knowledge and basically saying, they aren’t learning things fast enough for you, as you don’t do any work towards learning anything they are learning, but want to know what knowledge they have accumulate, as you show us all you have learned the ability of knowing how to write a YouTube comment and add smiley emojis to it.

    4. ​@Albin M
      Yes. I agree. There are only people with knowledge out there. Some people have very little knowledge and some people have a lot of knowledge. If you want to know the most about something, without studying it yourself, you have to go to the people with the most knowledge. You don’t look at the most knowledgeable people and say something like, “Tell me what you think you don’t know, because I might not listen to you.” He’s looking at it all backwards. Like the people who know the most are suppose to know it all right now. They have learned things, which is why they know the most about things and there is always more to learn and they are still learning and always something to learn. This is the only way to see it, any other way to look at it plain ignorant to the process of learning.

  3. “Washing your hands every 15 minutes, what does that mean” it means wash your hands every 15 minutes 😂😂

    1. @rtkl13 so far it is looking like a flue season of deaths. Over 60,000 died in 2017 from the flu and pneumonia.

    2. @Glenys Thomson I just read the sweden article, no lockdown and they have less deaths than lockdown states. Looks like the lockdown was a sham. Now it’s being said that the isolation actually weakens your immune system and when you come out of isolation you are more prone to virus and disease. They scammed us.

    3. adam102090 All I know is America has over 1/3 of the world’s Corona virus. Also bear in mind that there are 3 strains of the virus as it has mutated 3 times. Spain and Italy had a very bad strain. We are in lockdown and the curve is beginning to flatten as some provinces have had no new cases for awhile. America has been late and on again off again lockdown…working ? With over a million cases I think not.

    1. @THA ARCHON ABOLISHER 88 Hey man, do you remember me? I told you add me on discord, I did not get your username for the add.

    1. The big reveal is that the Fed talking heads aren’t discussing how many people haven’t even received their first stimulus check yet but businesses that got “missed” the first round of bailouts are already getting a half a trillion to split up ASAP. I suspect the Fed wants to get everyone back into the Petrie dish of a functional economy without any second round of stimulus is up for any discussion. They don’t mind thinning the herd. Nor do they mind homelessness. They blame that on the States being run poorly. Interesting shell game being perped on the peeps. It’s right in Trumps wheelhouse.

    2. @Howdy That is what so many idiots don’t get. They think there’s no downside to keeping the country closed. “Can’t be too safe” they say. When poverty, despair, sickness and death sweep over the country, maybe they’ll say, ‘oh, is this a Great Depression?” I didn’t want this.

    3. @Benjamin Strawde 45,000 American’s die in auto accidents commuting to and from work. 2 million are left with permanent injuries. 90 a day dead. Does anybody ever say, wait a minute, we’re putting lives in front of the economy, let’s shut it down. Of course not.

    4. @Red Pine Okay I get your point, but its a rock and a hard place that the administration is in …. shutdown is pushing towards economic collapse and open up is allowing the virus to run rampant.

    1. @Maureen Hansenthe rich never pay taxes and we have no more middle class so what are you talking about.

    2. @Maureen Hansen did you see the tax cuts they received already for 2 years now businesses are not getting help he doesn’t want to help the states neither do you know what will happen if new York and California declare bankruptcy? The country will become Venezuela.

    3. Maria Angel
      52% of U S adults are in the middle class.

      The top 50% of taxpayers pay 97% of the individual income taxes.
      The bottom 50% pays 3%.
      The top 1% of the top 50% paid a tax rate of 27%, 7 times higher than the bottom 50% which pay 3.7%

      If you make less than $30k you contribute 1.4% to the total individual income tax collected and you get an earned income tax refund.

      People also get the earned income refund up to around $55k with 3 kids. This is taken from the salaries of other taxpayers who earned more than $55k no matter how many kids they have.

      If you make $30k to $50K you contribute (the middle class) 4% to the total individual income tax collected.

      If you make $50k to $100k (the middle class) you contribute 14%.

      There are millions and millions of taxpayers in the middle class but this has little to do with covid.

      I don’t know what the contributions are above $100k.

      The rich pay income taxes, the middle class pay income taxes. Saying the rich don’t doesn’t make it so.
      Pew Research, Tax Foundation, Institute on Taxation

    4. @Maureen Hansenthank you for your knowledge ill just keep helping neighbors and help in need while I can you need paper money to keep you safe do what is best for you.

    5. Maria Angel knowledge is wasted on some people, they believe what makes them feel comfortable. Helping a neighbor or paper money has nothing to do with what you just posted about the middle class or rich, which had nothing to do with covid.

      You are very slippery and tricky, perhaps that way in real life if this is the way you communicate. You can’t even have an honest discussion. Bottom line we need to have an economy very soon in the safest way possible. Government won’t save us alone with handouts, we have to save ourselves and work.
