webfact Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 U.S. coronavirus death toll tops 80,000 - Reuters tally By Lisa Shumaker FILE PHOTO: A U.S. Marine stands beside the flag-draped coffin of a veteran who contracted the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), at the Woodlawn Cemetery in Everett, Massachusetts, U.S., May 4, 2020. REUTERS/Brian Snyder (Reuters) - U.S. coronavirus deaths topped 80,000 on Monday, according to a Reuters tally, as nearly all states have taken steps to relax lockdown measures. Deaths in the United States, the epicenter of the global pandemic, have averaged 2,000 a day since mid-April despite efforts to slow the outbreak. The death toll is higher than any fatalities from the seasonal flu going back to 1967 and represents more U.S. deaths than during the first eight years of the AIDS epidemic, from 1981 to 1988. Total coronavirus cases in the United States have exceeded 1.3 million with infections rising in such states as Mississippi, Minnesota and Nebraska, highlighting the risk of a new wave of COVID-19 outbreaks. Cases are falling in New Jersey and New York at the epicenter of the pandemic in the United States, accounting for nearly half of the American deaths from COVID-19, according to the Reuters tally, and the two states have among the strictest lockdown rules still in place.

Allow 40,000 to arrive from China with no checks or quarantines after stopping flights. Dems fault? Allow flights from UK and Ireland with no checks or quarantines after stopping flights from Europe. Dems fault? Ensuring social distancing on domestic flights. Dems fault? Ensuring social distancing on Amtrak. Dems fault? Having States compete against one another to source and buy PPE. Dems fault? Not enacting DPA to make sure enough PPE produced. Dems fault? Doing pretty much zero Federal prep work for the whole of February. Dems fault? Setting out guidelines for opening, then calling on States to "Liberate" against those very guidelines. Dems fault? Stating again and again and again that anyone who wants a test can have one. But failing miserably. Dems fault? Stating there is no problem, really, but going into a tailspin of fear when someone close to the President test positive. Dems fault? The list goes on and on and on. No matter how you cut it, the Federal response has been woeful. The constant attempts to shift blame while, at the same time, trying to take credit for imagined "wins" is breathtaking. Will all the Stable Genius's fans still think he can do no wrong and blaming Democratic Governors when States run by Republicans start to see numbers ramping up ? Probably PH 9 1 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NONE of the above has ANYTHING to do with the horrendous death toll and mismanagement of those 2 states which account for almost half of the US coronavirus deaths - not to mention most of those are contextless swipes and fake news. People who post things like you posted do not have any desire to know why things are happening the way they are in the USA, its partisan trash from unserious people who from day one couldn't look past Trump, and refuse to do so even now - which is unfortunate because people who need legitimate blame will go un punished and not held to account for their actions and decisions both in the face of the virus and their management prior to the virus that leads to the deaths of so many people. 12 minutes ago, Phulublub said: Will all the Stable Genius's fans still think he can do no wrong and blaming Democratic Governors when States run by Republicans start to see numbers ramping up ?
