    The economy is in tatters due to covid, China got it first so it's hardly surprising they have started to recover first. Equally their covid measures were much more effective because they're a tyranny.

    I agree except that China's covid measures are an illusion. They lie to make themselves look better. I know some folks in China and they say it was devastating.

    Local (County) Administrations get to share the blame only to the extent the relevant elected officials put partizan politics ahead of expert medical advice.

    A county fails to contain the virus because they lack the resources to do so or because the virus hit before they could put appropriate measures in place? Not their fault.

    A county is dominated by staunch 'Trumpian' Republicans who refuse to act because they've bought into the whole 'COVID is overblown', far right mythos and therefore do little or nothing in the way of preparation? Definitely their fault.

    Taiwan releases December email to WHO showing unheeded warning about coronavirus
    Do some research, there is a reason the entire planet was infected and it clearly was not fault of Trump or any other country/leader other then XI and their cohorts the lying WHO..

    Yeah, you gotta watch those nursing home residents. They sneak out at night to infect people. :)

    Once again, on all the mask comments, the President of the United States has zero authority to issue a nationwide mask mandate. And for the record, I wear a mask everywhere I go in public.

    Facts First: There appears to be no legal authority that would allow a US president to enact a nationwide mask mandate. There are exceptions where the executive's authority could allow for such a mandate, such as on federal property, though a nationwide rule would almost certainly be challenged in court.

    Even if he did try, Americans will simply push back against authoritarianism.. The left seem to invite it but the average American will or will not confirm or surrender his or her rights.. Besides, what's the problem? We have the vaccine "All hail Trump" the COVID curer, right?

    Shutting down ports of entry is xenophobic. Go party in Chinatown!

    Trump didn't shut down the ports of entry fast enough! Lock yourselves in your homes everyone!

    Don't wear a mask! They don't work! (we need them for ourselves)

    Everyone bunch together in the streets and protest!

    Trump doesn't listen to science! Wear a mask everyone!

    Trump's Covid response was terrible! I would have shut down the economy sooner and made everyone wear a mask.

    Man, Trump ruined the economy.


    It's like watching a fish on a dock flopping around, gasping for oxygen.

    So you know you got Covid from someone wearing a mask ? My point is that if you got it, and it was from someone not wearing a mask, how is wearing a mask bad ?

    Already refuted...

    Yes, they DO have to be... Individual viruses are all over in the air that you are breathing and on surfaces that you are touching. A mask does not stop that.
