    Community outbreaks of Covid-19 often emerge after Trump’s campaign rallies

    Former presidential candidate Herman Cain, who was co-chair of Black Voices for Trump and who attended the Tulsa rally without wearing a mask, tested positive for Covid-19 two days after the rally and died less than two weeks later.

    What we found was sobering yet not surprising. Spikes in Covid-19 cases occurred in seven of the 14 cities and townships where these rallies were held: Tulsa; Phoenix; Old Forge, Penn.; Bemidji, Minn.; Mankato, Minn.; Oshkosh, Wis.; and Weston, Wis.

    What a joke. Nick Saban tests positive three days ago but he can coach in the game tonight? What they actually meant to say was he got a false positive, but they'll never go back and admit they were wrong.

    Four players on the Colts tested positive and all four tests were false positive.

    If 4/4 Colts tests were false positive, how many are there in the general population?

    **** is a joke.

    Florida's HC just tested "positive", but I'm willing to bet money he will test negative tomorrow. Any takers?

    I once thought these people would only care if it impacted them (ie Chris Christie) now I don’t even know if they have that much processing power. I am now wondering if the long term impacts from this on these people and their children — that they have willingly infected — will change the way they view healthcare in this nation. Time will tell.

    Trump could not protect himself his wife several politicians, most of his staff and 3 U.S. Senators from coming down with coronavirus at his super spreader events. And now this reprobate president runs around round setting more super spreader events while at the same time won't acknowledge that there are over 210,000 deaths in the U.S .from coronavirus on his watch. He keeps trying to cut down testing so that the positives won't look so numerous even if it means 100s of thousands will wind up sick without knowing why or what what from all for the sake of politics. We can't live with this President anymore!

    A lot of these sports teams are using these quick tests (3 hours) that have lots of mistakes. Nobody I know has had that test. Medical facilities use the real test that takes 1-5 days. I got my Results in just under 24 hours. Everyone I know has had to wait 2-4 days.

    Of course.

    Still, it begs the question:

    Why is Trump trying to sicken his own voters in a contested swing state?

    Absolutely.

    Obviously, these events are of the egregious "Superspreader" variety.

    That's the only way he can campaign. He must hear the loud cheers of his followers in order to go on. It's the only thing that validates him in his own eyes. As far asCovid-19 I really don't think he's all there. His brief recovery has reinforced in his mind that the Coronavirus may not be as dangerous as the evidence shows it to be. Trump is a literalist. As long as he doesn't see the 200,000 plus dead from Covid-19 it's easy for him to delude himself that it isn't as deadly as it seems. Trump is constantly in denial of the negatives that surround him. He blows up when something bad happens regarding himself or his campaign but in many cases he goes right back into denial stage immediately after. This is the true behavior of a pathological narcissist.

    The fact that you recite the 200k dead number tells me all I need to know about how much faith you put into media overlords.

    Did you know we never landed on the moon?

    You lefties would be happier if the rallies were labeled as protests, then it wouldn't matter.

    Lol Lefty means anyone who doesn't vote for Trump. What a crude evaluation of humanity.

    I wonder if (presuming he wins) a Biden Administration would explore if any legal action can be taken against the Trump Campaign for rolling into these cities, creating these super-spreader events, and then leaving the community to deal with the fallout.

    Trump is a danger to America in so many ways

    Typical Trump infantile rant. Trump smiles in the face of death. Other people's.

    He's done terrible damage to Florida with respects to COVID and Gov DeSantis is all too happy to play lapdog and let it happen no matter the cost. Problem is FL is stuck with DeSantis until at least 2022 so we're going to need federal enforcement to rescue us. I'm pretty anxious about what the winter surge is going to look like. We're already at ~5000 new cases a day, down only recently from 10-12k a day. I think its safe to assume our winter rates will be in the 15-20k range and its all thanks to GOP motivated anti-masker anti-science anti-social distancing muh rights muh beer muh restaurant muh beach muh partying ignorant arrogant belligerence. Come 2022 its nearly a sure-thing we'll be a Blue state what with the outrage to the right's handling of COVID and with the influx of New Yorkers moving here permanently. Problem is how many deaths that might have been avoidable will happen before then?

    Does anyone still believe in all honesty covid is a pandemic that warrants the mass hysteria? If it was as deadly and contagious as some claim we would have all been seriously ill and had at least one associate dead by now.

    The desperation is hilarious. Falsely put forth the proposition that one is concerned about the spread of covid through large gatherings, attack Trump rallies, completely ignore nation wide "social justice" riots... I mean 93% peaceful fiery protests.

    Only idiots are drinking that koolaid.

    Those are not rallies, Trump always officially announces that these are peaceful protests which according to the Libs and their "experts" can't cause the spread of the virus.

    With approaching a quarter million dead a LOT of us know someone who died...and no pandemic EVER sickened or killed everyone...obviously. That was a strange comment

    There are a lot of useful idiots these days, especially woke whites. What do they think? When the the new Equality Government is formed they will be given credit? No no. All whites are in the cross hairs, no matter how woke you are.
