Thread: Florida

  1. #51

    Re: Florida

    There's been highest ever recorded numbers of new cases in Florida, California and Texas this week. Hopefully, this is down to increased testing levels in those states - if it isn't, then even Trump won't be able to continue ignoring the virus which has shown him to be totally unsuited for his job.

Same with Arizona, they lifted their lockdown on May 15th. Trump is now preparing to hold rallies in so-called red states. Inside arenas that are still closed for bands and sporting events.
    I started following that Officer Tony Norman on Instagram. Community cop who does his bit..erm..in the community.
    Anyway.. by the looks of it he hasn't stopped picking the locals up and driving about and I've seen zero social distancing in any of his posts. He's from Arkensaaww.

    Oregon and Utah have paused their easing of the lockdown because of the rising number of new infections in each state.

    Re: Florida

    Yesterday's figure for new cases in Florida of 2,625 was over 700 up on the previous highest (which was on Friday) - the last three days have seen a new highest so far figure in that state when it comes to new cases. As I mentioned in a message yesterday, it might be that the higher figures are down to increased testing levels, but if that's not the case, there's also an ominous look to things in Texas and California;-

    Re: Florida

    Levels are always going to increase, when we come out of lockdown the figures are only going one way , now add to that all these protests with little or no social distancing

    it looks like other countries are struggling with keeping rates low and getting back to life

    The difference is that the likes of England, the USA, Brazil and some others have eased lockdown restrictions at a time when claims that they have beaten the virus are ludicrous. Why can't they just tell the truth and say that they've decided money is more important than human lives and, in one of those cases at least, the leader was concerned that his electoral prospects were suffering while his country stayed in lockdown?

    I think we will have come to terms with a certain amount of deaths in exchange for saving the economy, what a dilemma

    When you say money is more important do you mean saving millions of people’s livelihoods?

    It is a dilemma, I reckon there will be a vaccine by the end if this year mind, or at least something that lessons the blow of the disease a bit like they discovered already but suitable for more people

    Yeah but it will be made by Bill Gates who tests all his vaccines on African kids who now have deformities. So is it worth all that?

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

    But its easy to make that choice when one is in a positon where one has enough income or savings to not need to work, which may include relying on ones kids being in school and the buses and trains running normally, but for a lot of folks being in lockdown and letting the economy die to save lives is actually killing them anyway.

    Of course, you can back this up with evidence.
