Washington hospitals are proving that good planning and management WA beats bad planning in NYC. "We still have capacities at our hospitals, we are not overwhelmed" "planning for a surge and canceled elective surgeries" Cassie Sauer, CEO of the Washington State Hospital Association.
Washington state had it over a month before everyone else and did not social distance until two weeks ago and has 400 deaths.
NYC with about the same population is incompetent. They did not send non-covid 19 patients to the hospital boat or convention center and as of last Friday had only 20 people on board which resulted in hospitals overflowing.
Inslee hasnt done terrible with this but FFS man, learn when to pump the breaks on this shutdown shit. Pre-closure, every person alive was cramming into Costo shoulder to shoulder for 3 weeks strait. If the covid cases didnt spike due to that and caise hundreds of deaths, they should have realized this thing was a bit od a dud.
Inslee treated the entire state like it was Seattle. Outside of King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties nearly every other county has under 100 cases and under 5 deaths each.
Yeah I couldn't believe he extended it. No one's taking it seriously where I am: it's as busy as it ever is on the road. If he doesn't end it soon I wouldn't be surprised if businesses just started ignoring the order.
Honestly this just makes alarmist liberal governors look like the emotional retards they are. I sincerely believe they were asking for things in the hopes that Trump wouldn't deliver yet when he did because he's an actual leader and not an inept politician they're like muh but the estimates... never mind. Those ships are at single digit capacity and they're purposefully trying to put people on them. As always anything democrats touch turns out to be a turd sandwich
How long is the rest of the nation expected to pretend like New York's shitshow is reflective of the situation we're all in? If New York City wants to remain locked down for the next 3 months, let them. The rest of the country should be allowed to re-open.
The whole reason the northeast is having issues is due to massive mismanagement from NYC. They infected the rest of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. They should have been locked down and should still be locked down.
Guess they'll have to, "Line them up on the beach and shoot them."
(For those unfamiliar, a Bernie campaign manager stated this to an undercover Project Veritas reporter about dems who won't agree to going full-commie.)
Yes, so everyone can get it all at once and defeat the purpose of this lockdown. Maybe the reason the numbers are low is because of the lockdown??? I'm all for opening up the economy so it can really crash and burn with everyone sick.
It's probably been around for a whole-- even though California gets tons of flights from China, other places with large "international" cities have been hit harder. Tons of people probably got it and developed an immunity to it.
It's also got minor symptoms in most cases-- destroying the economy doesn't do anybody any good, and will eventually lead to unrest like in Italy and China. Having a depression or a civil war because of what's basically a really bad flu season is a lot worse than Corona ever could be.
Nope. It snowed yesterday morning and we have more snow expected soon. We have about three months of decent weather to enjoy our lakes/beaches and pools and Minneapolis wants to close them for the whole summer. It's going to make so many people crabby come July when the temperature is 95 and no one can cool off in the water.
AND ALL YOU HAVE EVER DONE IS SCAM PEOPLE (DEMOCRATS) you will scream about how you need 30,000 new ventilators because 30,000 * $39,000 is $1.1 billion dollars you can fleece from the federal govt and share with your corrupt democratic cabal
DO NOT FORGET sanctuary states/counties/cities had juuuust had their federal funding yanked right before this all happened.
If they don't figure out how to pad their slush funds now, theyre superfucked. This is all about embezzlement and fraud, and theft of govt funds to prop up and house potential democrat voters.
In most high level financial news it was accepted that the state Pension system in NY was about to fail until the fed allowed itself to buy MUNI debt. Their own policies have forced the high income individuals to have an exodus from the state and you cant tax the people getting the free shit.
I've fucking had it with them moving the goal posts. We've flattened the curve. Maybe this is the peak for most areas. In MN we've had fifty deaths out of 5.7 million people. The median age for death is 87. We have destroyed our economy, our unemployment rates are high, our fatal car accidents in MN are way up (24 people have died in fatal car accidents in the last three weeks...OMG BAN CARS LIBERALS!) and students are not in school learning. We did our part to slow the spread. Now do your part MN: Prescribe HQC, Z Pak and Zinc at symptom onset and open up for business.
I understand there is a virus. I get that. Just as we have colds and the flu, that sort of thing, but I think this virus is seriously being over hyped. I am not sure why if we have a viable treatment option that has shown success, why it is not being strongly prescribed and encouraged. That seems strange. I find it odd how many things Governors are trying to pull. Look at Michigan. You aren't allowed to purchase paint at Home Depot or go to your cabin. MN has cities taking down tennis nets. In some states, people are arrested for not social distancing. Things are strange. I don't know why or what, but I agree with you that this is a fucking farce. In MN we have had around 57 deaths out of 5.7 million people. The median age of those deaths: 87. That is such a small percentage of our population and yet schools are closed. Basketball hoops are removed from parks. Beaches and pools are closed for the ENTIRE summer.
Meanwhile, since our shutdown, there have been 24 fatal car accidents. Yet they aren't banning cars. Yet, anyway. I thought the purpose of shutting down for three weeks was to flatten the curve. That was the original objective we were told. Well, the curve has been flattened. Hospitals have had time to get supplies. So when can we go back to work? Also, I hate the randomness of rules. Walmart can stay open and have Black Friday level crowds, yet a small local hockey store has to shut down indefinitely when they might have 2 or 3 customers in the store at a time. Which seems more dangerous? Hockey store with 3 people in the store or Walmart? So I am not sure what is going on, but I know it is bullshit and I am over it.
I got laid off over this shit. I lost a great paying job over this. I’m so fucking pissed. No one is hiring because nobody wants to do interviews. Everyone is just collecting resumes. I’m sitting here in my house collecting unemployment like a fucking parasite over this bullshit!! I just want to get back to work.
Agree. Those models weren't shit. If my fifteen year old turned in something so inaccurate for a class they would fail his ass. There needs to be consequences for this type of stupidity so it can never happen again.
The idea was that hospitals would have to deal with bullshit patients on top of real patients and the wuflu pandemic. In some places people stopped coming in for bullshit reasons freeing up the space for real patients.
This is obviously a lie. Everyone I have ever met in my entire life from Seattle has sort of been dead in some sense. Although I am confused that covid19 didn't exist back in 1990 or so.
Goddamn, the idiocy some pedes are showing is embarrassing.
Wake the fuck up. The real Chicom shills have turned you into a useful idiot who furthers their effort to discourage Americans from supporting the President.
Trump is in control of the situation. He knows better than you. Stop undermining him. Follow his guidelines.
His guidelines are social distancing, hand washing, and staying home if you are sick. Trump said we have to get back to work. We can open the economy back up, or at least large sections of it.
Why are the union carpenters not working? Some construction workers are still working, others are stuck at home. Small retail stores are closed, just stand a little farther away from people, its not hard. Restaurants? Have them move the tables farther apart, shit applebees has a little tablet you can order and pay on. Just have someone wiping those down and bingo, were open.
Fuck off. NY is cooking the death numbers. You know it, I know it, everyone knows it.
While I agree that some governors are going way too far (looking at you Gavin), most are merely issuing directives to minimize unnecessary travel and limit gatherings. My state is not hassling people for being out running errands, but traffic is down to 20-30% of what it normally is. Citizens have accepted their responsibility to help slow the spread and are voluntarily following Trump’s guidelines as best they can. We started out in the top 15 states for infections and are now in the bottom 20.
Construction projects continue. Many stores are open and restaurants are offering take-out, though all are distancing via plexiglass barriers and occupancy limits.
This is how it should work. Governors should respect the Constitution, and citizens should respect the President’s guidelines. You can pretend those guidelines don’t emphasize minimizing travel, but that just makes you a shitty pede.
As to your parroting the asinine conspiracy theory that NYC is not really in the throes of deadly outbreak - how the fuck do morons like you reconcile that with support for Trump? Either you think he is part of the conspiracy, or you think he is falling for it. And you are most definitely not any smarter than GEOTUS.
He’s using it to his advantage. The liberals were saying there are going to be hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of deaths. The latest estimates are saying 60,000 deaths by august (It will be less, even with the inflated numbers).
Thats less than the flu.
Trump is either now the savior, or dems have to admit they were completely wrong and lost everyones jobs for nothing. Either way they lose.
(Here’s where I dive into conspiracy theory)
We also get to print a ton of money while holding interest rates down. Inflation without the interest rates going up is great if you are in debt, as you can pay it off easier. But it sucks for the lenders. Who owns americas debt?
Alot of different agencies, states, and individuals. Other presidents raided social security and replaced it with IOU’s, so thats a big one. But the big 2 foreign countries that hold debt are Japan, and of course, CHYNA.
My guess is he will find some way to pay Chinas debt off with the inflated currency, before the interest rates kick back up, to make china pay for this in some way. Trumps foreign policy has always been economic warfare, tariffs and sanctions. Trump also called china out for currency manipulating, he might be fighting fire with fire here.
What a fucking joke. Fucking joke. They are all laughing at us. None of their jobs are in jeopardy. Bunch of fucking bullshit

Yeah not to mention a huge chunk of the early deaths were from one elder care facility
Inslee hasnt done terrible with this but FFS man, learn when to pump the breaks on this shutdown shit. Pre-closure, every person alive was cramming into Costo shoulder to shoulder for 3 weeks strait. If the covid cases didnt spike due to that and caise hundreds of deaths, they should have realized this thing was a bit od a dud.

Very true! I'm east king co. so im used to being treated like seattle (and hate it!l
Yeah I couldn't believe he extended it. No one's taking it seriously where I am: it's as busy as it ever is on the road. If he doesn't end it soon I wouldn't be surprised if businesses just started ignoring the order.
This is a good life lesson in mass hysteria.
Now I know why Trump sent the ships to CA & NY, and recently opened them up to Kung Flu patients.
Those are HIS ships. HIS numbers.
Honestly this just makes alarmist liberal governors look like the emotional retards they are. I sincerely believe they were asking for things in the hopes that Trump wouldn't deliver yet when he did because he's an actual leader and not an inept politician they're like muh but the estimates... never mind.

This is really the approach we should have taken, isolating the hot spots and practice preventative measures
The whole reason the northeast is having issues is due to massive mismanagement from NYC. They infected the rest of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. They should have been locked down and should still be locked down.
So much for the hyped up fear mongering. Numbers were all wrong!!!
Guess they'll have to, "Line them up on the beach and shoot them."
(For those unfamiliar, a Bernie campaign manager stated this to an undercover Project Veritas reporter about dems who won't agree to going full-commie.)
At least we know our people can get shit done in a hurry. Now open America back up. This is crazy.
Open it back up IN A HURRY
Yes, so everyone can get it all at once and defeat the purpose of this lockdown. Maybe the reason the numbers are low is because of the lockdown??? I'm all for opening up the economy so it can really crash and burn with everyone sick.
It's been in the USA since November, when all the Chinese ran back during their New Year panic.
Some 25% of the population already had this virus, and never knew it.
In fact, the CDC noted respiratory disease of unknown origin at that time, and labeled it seasonal flu.
It's probably been around for a whole-- even though California gets tons of flights from China, other places with large "international" cities have been hit harder. Tons of people probably got it and developed an immunity to it.
It's also got minor symptoms in most cases-- destroying the economy doesn't do anybody any good, and will eventually lead to unrest like in Italy and China. Having a depression or a civil war because of what's basically a really bad flu season is a lot worse than Corona ever could be.
Trump gets shit done. That's what I know.
Minneapolis already closed the beaches and pools for the ENTIRE summer on April 2nd. Talk about premature.
Is it even thawed out up there yet?
Nope. It snowed yesterday morning and we have more snow expected soon. We have about three months of decent weather to enjoy our lakes/beaches and pools and Minneapolis wants to close them for the whole summer. It's going to make so many people crabby come July when the temperature is 95 and no one can cool off in the water.
When your state/local govt gets the following:
$13,000 dollars per Covid positive test patient
$39,000 per Covid ventilator
AND ALL YOU HAVE EVER DONE IS SCAM PEOPLE (DEMOCRATS) you will scream about how you need 30,000 new ventilators because 30,000 * $39,000 is $1.1 billion dollars you can fleece from the federal govt and share with your corrupt democratic cabal
This is a once in a lifetime fleecing opportunity for Gov PARTY TITS or as I like to call him Andrew "The Pierced-Nipple Prince" Cuomo
DO NOT FORGET sanctuary states/counties/cities had juuuust had their federal funding yanked right before this all happened.
If they don't figure out how to pad their slush funds now, theyre superfucked. This is all about embezzlement and fraud, and theft of govt funds to prop up and house potential democrat voters.
And I've heard a rumor that the Medicare system in NY was pretty much bankrupt. FOLLOW THE MONEY! This is some shady BS
In most high level financial news it was accepted that the state Pension system in NY was about to fail until the fed allowed itself to buy MUNI debt. Their own policies have forced the high income individuals to have an exodus from the state and you cant tax the people getting the free shit.

We did our part to slow the spread. Now do your part MN: Prescribe HQC, Z Pak and Zinc at symptom onset and open up for business.
Numbers don't lie.
Communists do.
Endgame is crash the economy so we’re all so desperate we’ll go along with the globalist plan.
We shut our country down for this shit? I'm really starting to believe that this thing spreading and killing is mostly a fucking farce.
I almost always like telling people "I told you so! " but this time I'm too angry to enjoy it.
Starting to believe? I know it. This is BS.
Then what do you think is going on?
I understand there is a virus. I get that. Just as we have colds and the flu, that sort of thing, but I think this virus is seriously being over hyped. I am not sure why if we have a viable treatment option that has shown success, why it is not being strongly prescribed and encouraged. That seems strange.

I agree with you. We were told 2-3 weeks and they fucking lied to us (I’m in the Bible Belt 😳). I want answers on who lied & why.
Chicago put 3000 beds in Mccormick place. I bet it doesn't see any either.
I got laid off over this shit. I lost a great paying job over this. I’m so fucking pissed. No one is hiring because nobody wants to do interviews. Everyone is just collecting resumes. I’m sitting here in my house collecting unemployment like a fucking parasite over this bullshit!! I just want to get back to work.
You got laid off? I’m a senior in college who got furloughed from my hotel front desk job that will be full time after this ends.
I knew it wouldn't be used.
He is on record admiring China’s basic dictatorship and is a close friend of Soros. Don’t even need to guess the rest.
But the apex!
Agree. Those models weren't shit. If my fifteen year old turned in something so inaccurate for a class they would fail his ass. There needs to be consequences for this type of stupidity so it can never happen again.
Don’t forget the millions killed by Net Neutrality
I wonder if the author of this article, Liz Brazile, is related to incompetent Donna?
There's going to be a lot of saving face over this.
Our boy Inslee hinted today that he may extend the Stay at Home order past May 4th... Fuck I hate this state!
The idea was that hospitals would have to deal with bullshit patients on top of real patients and the wuflu pandemic. In some places people stopped coming in for bullshit reasons freeing up the space for real patients.
This is obviously a lie. Everyone I have ever met in my entire life from Seattle has sort of been dead in some sense. Although I am confused that covid19 didn't exist back in 1990 or so.
So your are saying what - that the virus is a hoax? Is it that hard to grasp the concept that social distancing is working??
Also, these idiotic posts ignore the reality in places like NYC and New Orleans.
Stop parroting Chicom propaganda and start supporting the President.
Chicom propaganda, like you, wants the US economy indefinitely closed.
Lol.
Nice try, pinko.
Goddamn, the idiocy some pedes are showing is embarrassing.
Wake the fuck up. The real Chicom shills have turned you into a useful idiot who furthers their effort to discourage Americans from supporting the President.
Trump is in control of the situation. He knows better than you. Stop undermining him. Follow his guidelines.
fOLlOw fAucI's GuIdLiNEs...So hE CaN mAkE $100 MiLliOn.
It's not like he & Birx work for Bill Gates. /s
Commie fuckers.

Can’t say I disagree with you entirely, pede.
Hat tip for civility and rationality.
Lol fuck you faggot, commie hoax BTFO
