Re: Florida

If it ever boiled down to a choice of actual lives or livelihoods I'd always choose lives,

What if that choice lead to the death of more people than your other choice? Something we don’t know and we never want to see or experience ever.....

Re: Florida

Good grief, the UK Government apologists are tying themselves in knots in this thread - I was asked a question and gave a straight answer which has been met by classic whatiffery.

Meanwhile, in this thread which, judging by the person who started it, was started to show that White House backed policies being followed in many states were the way to go, the state mentioned in its title has, once again, had a record number of new cases in the last twenty four hours, as has California, while Texas suffers its third worst day - death rates are not rising yet and, hopefully, they won't, but the one has tended to be about two to three weeks behind the other so far. .

Re: Florida

Bars & restaurants are open, and they are partying likes it's 1999, so it will be interesting to see if they start dropping like flies in 14 days time.

OP posted pretty close to the arrow.

Re: Florida

Although this makes grim reading, maybe it's not quite as shocking because there's been a sense of inevitability about for close to two weeks now;-

The handling on a Federal level and some States has just been absolutely idiotic.
A lot of people will also have blood on their hands due to their pig ignorance of refusing to wear a mask and just general selfishness with their behavior.

My Brother in Law lives in Tampa and he says it’s crazy how blasé people have been there.

It’s going to get a lot worse.

Some parts of Florida never really had it bad a few months ago, friends of ours who live in Tampa said it never really took off there in March/April....

It’s a nightmare.
Some people that I know not only flat out refuse to wear masks, they proudly brag about it on Social Media as they think it goes against their rights FFS.

One such person works at a local bar and has been advocating reopening for months along with shitty hashtags proclaiming how safe things are there.

Beggars belief!!

Probably all of the above.
South Chicago has been a massive problem for years.
Protesters getting more brazen as well as police on egg shells.

Mentioned on here that I’m thinking of getting a gun.
Never wanted one, don’t really want one now, but sadly think we might need one if things carry on.
