    On the upside, all of those pets and deceased people that received unrequited mail-in ballots pose little risk for spreading the virus.
    That is until someone else fills out and mails in those ballots :)

    I guess they'll have to find a place that caters to folks who think they're more important than everyone else.

    Donald Trump Jr. Infected by Coronavirus and in Isolation
    By Jennifer Jacobs, Tyler Pager, and Mario Parker @ Bloomberg.com
    November 20, 2020, 3:01 PM PST


    President Donald Trump’s oldest son, Donald Trump Jr., tested positive for coronavirus infection earlier this week and is isolating, according to three people familiar with the matter.

    A spokesman for Trump Jr. said in a statement he is asymptomatic for Covid-19, the disease caused by the virus.

    Trump Jr. adds to the dozens of people associated with the president who have been infected by the virus, including Trump himself. On Friday, Rudy Giuliani’s son Andrew Giuliani, who is a White House aide, announced on Twitter he had tested positive. In addition, an aide to Vice President Mike Pence, Hannah McInnis, tested positive earlier this month, according to two people familiar with the matter.

    Several of Pence’s aides have been infected, including his press secretary and chief of staff. Pence himself has not.

    Giuliani attended a news conference his father hosted Thursday where he and other Trump-allied lawyers repeated unsubstantiated claims that voter fraud had led to the president’s defeat for re-election. One of the lawyers, Jenna Ellis, said Friday on Twitter that she and Rudy Giuliani had tested negative for infection.

    The coronavirus pandemic is surging around the country, with new cases regularly topping 150,000 per day since last week. More than 254,000 Americans have died from the virus since February.

    I've talked to a disturbing amount of people who said they don't plan on getting vaccinated when they become available. I'm blown away by this kind of thinking.

    Are they anti vaxxers overall or people who just aren't getting it right away when it becomes available? I know a few (black folks in particular) who aren't getting it right away just to make sure it is safe with no adverse side effects. That Tuskegee Syndrome makes a lot of black folks leery about any kind of new medical related things straight from the get go.

    Most of them are older folks that I work with, these are people who are right in the covid danger zone (over 65 and butt loads of underlying conditions) Their reasoning seems to be that if other people get it (and assume the risk of side-effects) they don't have to, they seem to be counting on a human immunity shield. I've told some of them that isn't the best strategy but they don't seem to care.

    At some point you have to rely on common sense and not social media.
    During a flu outbreak or COVID19, do you think it makes sense to wash your hands more frequently or not at all??
    You need to stop making this pandemic a political issue. It's not about scoring points against the libs.

    He can't help but make everything a political issue because he clearly views EVERYTHING through the skewed lens of politics. Common sense, facts & basic logic go out the window for people like that as we have been seeing over the last 10+ years or more.
