Debbie Downer time.

For those who questioned my assertion that we would hit 100k dead prior to the end of May:

There's no way they get any reputable scientific consensus that it came from a lab. But China can certainly be part of the long-running Trump strategy of gaslighting in order to confuse and fatigue low-info voters.

If he keeps the subject out front, the media will bombard us with it all year at the expense of the ongoing testing cockblock, which should be by far the biggest scandal.

Oh, and I guess good news, the Pennsylvania Hospital ER on Spruce Street has removed their triage tents. I walk by all the time and never saw a single person or staff member using them. I'll check Jefferson later - they always have some staff and security in their tents on 10th/Sansom St.

Trump is also trying to sow distrust in agencies like WHO, like he does in the US, so that his admin's word will be the only one trusted

What I don't get is who is advising Trump. He can't come up with this playbook on his own. This is dictator level stuff. Is this within our borders or perhaps overseas?

He has a very, very large brain.

Sycophants and enablers. Do as dear leader says or you’re gone. How many people have been fired? Hundreds? He isn’t like a dictator he kind of IS a dictator.

Democracy is in for a bad time when he wins again
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

Germany

A big part of countries squashing it is good leadership, another big part is citizens that listen and follow directions and are willing to give up some things many Americans won't.

Encephalitis or cerebral edema would explain a lot.

Yes, I know Monday, but Philadelphia's death toll went down 1 person today from 727 to 726 after no new cases were reported and one error was corrected.
