Some states have flattened their curves and that’s not good enough. Hospitals are empty and just waiting for a surge. To not atleast try to open in some capacity is the basis of the political argument that one side is set on doing one thing, while the other wants another.

The only way this statement is somewhat reasonable is if you can demonstrate (or link to someone who can demonstrate) that local governments can control the rate of infection to such a degree that hospitals can never be overwhelmed for an extended period of time. That would be a hard sell considering that the number of cases can double every day and were still trying to understand how the virus behaves.

The argument for reopening this early is simply financial and it is motivated by the fact that those at the top believe that those at the bottom are expendable.

You can't catch it again?

If people who had the flu vaccine are testing positive for the corona virus is it possible that people who test positive for the corona virus just have the flu?

Are there any flu statistics during the pandemic? How many people have just been diagnosed with the flu?

It's late I been drinking, I got a lot on my mind right now lol

These are valid questions though.

Texas' virus deaths hit single-day high on eve of reopening

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas' coronavirus death toll hit a single-day high of 50 on Thursday, just as the state was preparing for a slow reboot of one of the world’s largest economies by reopening retail, restaurants, malls and movies to limited amounts of customers.

apnews.com

Republican Gov. Greg Abbott’s stay-at-home order expires Friday. The state-reported death toll of 119 over the past three days marks the deadliest stretch since Texas’ first fatality in the pandemic was recorded March 17. Thursday’s 1,033 new cases is the first time the state has been over 1,000 since April 10.

The number of infections is thought to be far higher because many people have not been tested and studies suggest people can be infected without feeling sick

The mother****er leaders in these states just don't wanna pay more people unemployment benefits anymore............that's basically the common consensus I'm seeing with the states that are opening up AND the recent article I read about those states "ending" unemployment benefits for individual's whose job industries have re-opened up in their states.

I said this about 2 weeks ago when people were saying they were doing better on unemployment than they were working. The low state minimum wages are being exposed by the stimulus cares act and governors want people off unemployment and back at their underpaid jobs ASAP.
