    I hate Trump but support his decision to cut funding to the CHO.

    Facts Drump and his blind followers (including some here) can reference.  Also, deflection when the alternative facts are questioned.  #twosides
    But can he at least show these alternative facts?  I learned at a very young age that just because you say something doesn't mean it's true.  My 6 year old knows that.  I mean, I haven't been following his daily briefings, but maybe show us some data to support the claim?  I don't know.  Maybe I'm not that bright and I'm missing something.  WTF

    Interesting info here.  Deaths per 1M population

    Spain 409 
    Italy 358 
    France 263
    UK 190 
    Sweden 132
    USA 86
    Germany 45 
    Fair way to look at it.

    Just find a Trump supporting FB page and go to the comments section. Things will become all too clear.

    Your logic is perfectly sound.

    How about those protests in KY and MI? What a bunch of morons. Here’s a hospital worker who couldn’t make it to work because of the protest ranting about it....

    MI protests are a textbook example of having the right to be upset, yet expressing it in the worst possible way

    They really are. They have a legitimate beef but will actively turn people against them with their antics. Blocking roadways during a crisis like this is absolutely insane.

    Isn’t the new norm to protests by blocking streets?  There were a lot around here supporting that method not too long ago...I, for one, still think it is bad taste to block roadways protesting this or that.

    I was thinking about the impact this will have on the state that I live in (IL).  We were at, or near, the bottom for the entire country in terms of budget deficit prior to the virus.  One of the highest taxed states in the country.  Hard to imagine how bad it will get from here.

    i got called in to cover a surgery tuesday morning. i had not been in a hospital or a surgery center in 11 days. it is insane that some of these hospitals are still doing elective procedures. it is going to get hospital staff sick, and potentially patients, and ancillary staff like me. 

    we had a conference call yesterday saying that kansas and missouri will be the last two states to resume elective surgeries, sometime in late june. as a surgical sales rep in missouri and southern illinois, i could be fucked for awhile.

    Hi! Posts: 3,095
    Another beautiful day in MI. People doing a good job with social distancing, lots of people wearing masks, ect. I also see boats going out with people fishing, lots of stores open, restaurants open for takeout, people fishing on piers and boardwalks, doing yard work, planting gardens, ect. I do wonder what all the Bundy wannabes were doing in Lansing yesterday. Apparently nothing better to do.🤷‍♂️

    that is crazy. hope you all can stay afloat.

    i just got an email that they are adding one on for Wed. they are using our graft that will expire the following week. i hate taking risks like this.

    Sorry to hear that, man. My wife had her planned procedure put on hold & I really hope it's sooner than late June. Be well.
