Coronavirus cases skyrocket in South Dakota after governor dismisses quarantine measures

[RJRS1301]

The number of confirmed cases in the state has risen from 129 to 988 since April 1 — when Gov. Kristi Noem criticized the “draconian measures” of social distancing to stop the spread of the virus in her state.

 

I am guessing she does not want to run for re-election any time in the future

You should know by now that the number of cases simply depends on how much you test. So first they get blamed for not testing enough, and when they test more, and obviously find more, then blame them for finding more cases?

So you suggest to reduce testing again to keep the numbers low?

Yep. The number of cases has absolutely nothing to do with infections.

More than likely the new numbers come from the meat packing workers who were deamed essential workers but were there families. Most of these workers are considered throw away from South of the border or from the Sudan. But yes the governnor is a twit it has been shown that lock down works keeping the numbers at bay, think California

pretty sure 70-80 percent of everybody will get infected

 

you must love thai style :  don't test, don't tell
