Japan so no increase in deaths or any reason compared to previous years. They saw a drop. This is despite not locking down and doing very little testing relative to their Western peers:

Texas Reports Single-Day High in Coronavirus Deaths Two Weeks After Reopening

Oops.

These are the masks I have now:

I have surgical masks, and I have a couple of four-layer copper-infused masks on backorder.

Oh. Well the mask does have a slot where u can put a filter. I guess that's something.

Best mask that you can get is a respirator. I wear it at work but it can be very pricey.

I have some of those chinese kn95 masks, and I hate them.

I'm sure they're a lot more effective then a bandana, but give me something I can wash and lets me breath. Odds are no one's getting sick anyways, as long as you don't get too close to people and get as far as you can from anyone with the sniffles.

Same here on the copper lined mask.

The little testing is a problem though, because it means you cant trust their numbers. Last I read 40% of their tests resulted in a postitivr. Thats high, and shows they are massively under recording coronavirus cases.

That said that is interesting about their mortality figures compared to previous years.

Oops. [/B]

According to my coworkers and employees in Texas: Texas is not reopened as of today, May 16th. So I went and looked to see why they say Texas is still strict as f*ck but you're saying the opposite.

And according to this site, almost nothing has changed in Texas with their restrictions lasting through August 1st:

Somebody is lying or this is a great example of fake news.

Also, if you take a look at the data, they had a massive spike in testing, as well - today was a "special" day where lots of stats were added to the pool and not specifically an extra deadly day. Additionally, it wasn't the largest number of deaths in a single day.

Also, Oklahoma started to open back up as of April 24th. We are further along in our reopening than Texas. Today, we experienced 1 death. We are testing people by the thousands every day, sometimes over 10,000.

Not really. It doesn't matter if they are not testing very readily if their absolute deaths have dropped. It means that despite the "pandemic", deaths for any cause are down.

Fake news

Fox News pooh poohing relief bill item "mail in voting" as liberal nonsense.

They were complaining just the other night that Dem politicians can stay in power forever because no one can leave the house to vote, and that they want to keep it that way.

Mail-in voting is liberal nonsense... or, more accurately, leftist nonsense. Doesn't take a genius to understand that.

But i get it, dem voters and Trump-haters such as yourself desperately want mail-in voting because it makes it easier for your side to cheat. Same reason you're all against mandatory id before voting.

No voting at all means those same leftists in power stay in power indefinitely.

Something fox complained about.

It's either mail in voting or no vote.

Politico Reporter Calls Out Media’s Biased Coverage Of NY, FL Governors’ COVID Response, Gets Lectured By CNN Analyst

Best part is he was spot on and this was the response:

"So, given how much everyone is suffering everywhere - grieving loved ones, job losses and even the simple things like hugging your friends - I fail to see how this snarky nonsense from @MarcACaputo - who I think is an awesome reporter - is helpful."

None of this addresses the points made. And the fact people are suffering everywhere means journalists should be biased weasels? What?

Electronic voting from your computer or mobile phone. 🙂

HCQ+Azithromyiacin+Zinc made very sick patients 44% less likely to die from COVID-19.

Large sample size.

This puts it in the ballpark of vaccines. Based on other studies which show 98% recovery rates (for all ill, not just terminally ill), the only question is supply. At this point, with over a credible dozens studies completed, we have enough evidence. At this point, I'm unsure if a vaccine is relevant anymore.

If it comes down between no voting/elections postponed and mail-in voting I would choose the former. It is too easy to cheat with mail-in voting. Better to have an election postponed than to have an election that would be filled with voter fraud. Better to be sure that those in power actually really did get the votes for it.

Elections that're decided by mail-in voting will always be viewed with suspicion and doubt except by the side that actually wins in such a dubious fashion.

Yeah, as I said, the Science is solid.
