All of a sudden
Off cousre are the case from homes because they aren’t at work
yes. Everyone is at home (sometimes) so of course they are getting sick from home. (AFTER they go out shopping, or to work or getting visited by family…..) This is not surprising. Staying at home and but still going out or having people in means you are not truly quarantining yourself….. I’m surprised so few understand this.
Oh, every precaution but masks, is that right?
Jennifer Jones , masks aren’t a definite safeguard.
@Connie DeShazo that may be true depending on what mask you wear however, it’s much better to have some type of covering on your face (didn’t the Surgeon General say something about this) than to not have anything at all especially when Your Valet tested positive and you are surrounded by vulnerable elderly people.
@Connie DeShazo but they are definitely an important tool to fight against this disease. would you prefer going out and see people wearing a mask or just see people walking without protection ?? even the medical mask is safe enough
@SF2 http://usfacemask.net i found some mask on this website, happy to help
3:26 It’s because people aren’t taking the proper precautions to protect themselves and to protect others when they’re out in the world. Even if you’re only leaving home for the utmost of essentials, you run the risk of encountering the virus and bringing it back home with you. An asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic spreader coughs or sneezes on a bag of apples, or wipes their nose and then picks up a bag of apples and puts it down to select another, and you come along behind him and grab that bag and bring it home. Boom. Corona.
“So, what you’re saying is: don’t buy apples.”
…No, Mr. President. That’s not… errr.. never mind…
YOURE BRAINWASHED
@Munchen Bayern lol yeah
Goggles will works, just a flu 😷
“Open up USA and the weak will die , oh well”
@Teresa S yes so reopen soon before we have another depression
that one guy c we are not even close to a Great Depression. This is a walk in the compared to many things that have happened
Everyone should be tested and get the results before the country open back up. Everyone should be mandated to wear a mask. I pray that I’m wrong but I won’t be surprised if the death toll triples in 2-3 weeks. At this pace 500,000 people will die by October. Donald is a murderer. 2% of America has been tested and your sending people back to work. Every Doctor on tv say this is the wrong thing to do. Dam I thought Donald was just a idiot, he fooled me, he’s also a murderer.
@Teresa S these entitled morons cant even be safe now. Wut makes u think they’re gonna be safe wen they open up the country?
Thats his motto we need a president who cares
This people are crazy.
I swear i’m only here to try and find the cure for corona virus
Can’t such things happen using video conference? Why the people in government are so dumb to understand the word ‘Social Distancing’?
Idiot still doesn’t understand how the virus or testing works.
“We’re now putting in place”…. shouldn’t that be… “We already had this in place for months”
FREE HUGS NO MASK REQUIRED ❤️ die from a hug not a needle
Btw: my one year old sons first words COVID1984
Tossing live turkeys out of planes is called “being religious” in Arkansas.
Where has American wealth gone, in the pocket of the elite, ordinary people are like dogs.
Yeah “They made the choice to come here” and risk getting infected by Orange Jesus…. It’s all thier fault not the demi-god…..
Breaking news!! Ivanka’s assistant just tested positive. That makes three positive cases in the White House and you know there will be more.
Yeah I just heard
So, “All.the recommended guidelines” for you, NONE for us….😠
It’s like a song, this is the dawning of the age of government slavery surveillance.
Whoever didn’t give the WH the memo about asymptomatic transmission, good job😁👍
If he puts the safety of americans in his hands how come the whole whiteshouse has it
