Why are the cases of Covid-19 going up? Why can't we get it together and stop this from spreading?
-
China has a cure, but will not give it to the US. They hate Trump because he makes them walk the line. That is what all of this is all about. It is a shame so many People are getting sick and dying. I Pray for this to all go away.

Why do you think China has a cure? If they did why would their numbers still be increasing? Why did they lock people in their homes with threats of death if they came out of their homes if they could just "cure" this? This is basically a new strain of the flu. There is not a cure just like there is not a cure for the flu. They have said repeatedly this will return every fall just like the flu does. It is a virus. Not the plague.
-
I think because as things start to open up; many are not wearing masks or practing social distancing; people want to do what they want to do, not caring that this virus is still out there!. Also, I would imagine as more testing becomes available; then more people might have access to get tested and the numbers may go up.

Why are the Netherlands, Japan and a few other countries with low counts of illness and mostly zero illness now? Why aren't we hearing anything about Germany, Spain, Italy and France anymore? Is everyone cured? Those countries weren't on lockdown as long as we were. Why? Sometimes I think this was a biochemical attack on the countries who are our allies and us. I know, I know...conspiracy theory but you have to admit that we're still having high numbers and Dr. Fauci is not helping much by always changing his mind on what to do. The easiest thing to do would've been to check with other countries. Not the W.H.O. They are on China's payroll, always have been, and Fauci is close to the Head of W.H.O. Fauci doesn't seen to want a cure.

There are too many that wants to do their own thing their own way and doesn't anyone to tell them anything. If we would all take responsibility for prevention, that would be a great start. Let us all do our part and wear mask and social distancing.

we have been lucky in our state..it hasnt gone up much and the deaths hasnt gone up...as of the last time i checked anyway

Exactly. We have a bunch of people too selfish for their own good (our own good).

These other countries had a lot more severe lockdown, better leadership and they followed the rules whereas here some places maybe shut down for a less than a month. These countries are smaller which also plays a role. You can control things a lot better when there aren't as many people.
-
It is this simple, no one cares and they really don't no matter what they say. Their to worried about blaming someone instead of doing the right thing. >:(
-
Cause a majority of people want to rant about life and decided to go YOLO with life.
-
All we can do is to wait for a vaccine and/or a cure become available and we all be safe. The state governments are moving too fast to reopen the economy.

LOL When you live under communism you can control the people. We are a free country. There is your biggest difference.

People going to work and living their lives is not being selfish. You have the option to keep your butt at home. Stop trying to control others. If I don't want to be in crowds I take my self out of the crowd. I stay at home. Easy fix. Selfish are the people who are lucky enough to draw a government check, or got to draw unemployment making more money than they ever have in their lives, or people who have real jobs where they work from home. It is easy to scream lock it down and demand everyone stay at home when you yourself can stay at home and have money deposited in to your checking account every month. Some people do not have that luxury. Some people actually have to leave their house and go to work.
Here is a little FYI for you - if not for THOSE PEOPLE the grocery stores would be empty, Walmart would be empty, the delivery drivers would not bring your crap to your door when you go online and order it. And there would be no online ordering either because guess what - people WORK in those positions as well. Stockers cannot stock shelves from home. Truck drivers cannot move product from one location to another from home.
People need to worry more about themselves and not so much about everyone else. It is hilarious how the same people crying and screaming about people being out shopping are completely okay with the thousands and thousands marching in the streets protesting. How exactly is that okay but going to Walmart for groceries is not. ::) ???

Colorado, where I live, has been stabilizing. Our numbers were high initially because of outbreaks in our ski towns. Leadership has played a big role. Our state government shut down the ski hills, restaurants and bars which contributed to our lower numbers as well as stay at home orders. Our Governor was not missing in February, has not played golf during this crisis, and has handled the unrest (surrounding the black lives movement) admirably. Not even one photo opportunity. No mud slinging. No fake facts/lies or tweets. Colorado seems to have a larger percentage of people that are able to work from home so our economy has remained rather unaffected. My day job is looking at revising our back to office with no return before mid-October. Our population is more spread out.
-
Our state is going up, I stay home most of the time and use Walmart pickup. Occasionally I do have to go into the store but always wear a mask. The sad part is that about 75% don't wear masks. But everyone is pretty good at staying 6 feet apart.

This is not simply a new strain of flu, around 50,000 people in US die of flu a year with no lockdowns over a year. This virus has killed over 115,000 in 12 weeks even with all the precautions and the states that thought it was fine to open up are now have huge increases and trying to figure out ways to back up on their opening up so soon. Arizona is one state where there emergency rooms are full so if you have a heart attack or car accident good luck finding a place to take you. They opened about 3 weeks ago.
The 2nd wave of the 1918 pandemic killed more people than the first because they didn't want to take precautions anymore and went back to living as if nothing was happening.
-
As far as I can tell, my state's positive cases and deaths have been going down. We have been easing restrictions more slowly than other states. I'm not sure how all the protesting will affect our numbers in the next few weeks. Although, most of the protesters are kids in their 20s, so they're less likely to be affected.

I don’t know why our numbers are rising and other countries are not. New Zealand reported their last case and now there are totally virus free. The Netherlands, Japan, France, Italy, Germany, Spain are not under communism rule, can’t figure out why they are not increasing, they must be doing something better than we are.

Yes it is simply a new strain of the flu. Talk to a doctor. We talked to a specialist a couple days ago and that is exactly what he said it is. He also said more people have died with the flu that this virus. No there are no "lock downs" this is something new. A trial run at control. You are free to lock yourself down and you will be safe. As long as THOUSANDS of people are allowed to march and scream in the streets do not tell me that I need to stay at home so I don't get a virus. I don't go that many places anyway but I am not going to try to control what others do. If you want to go some where you should be free to do so.

The problem with that question has already been addressed in previous posts. There is no genuine "we" as much as there are a collection of "I's". "I's" that, albeit fairly, behave in an ego centered fashion so, there really is no query there.

Our state goes up by the same numbers every day. Most people don't believe it. There are people who work in hospitals who will tell you the numbers are inflated and they are lying. So you can pick who to believe. The media or real people who are in the know. If in a couple of weeks there are not 4 million new positive cases then it is all a lie.

Then move yourself to a communist country. Maybe they are lying about their numbers. Ever think of that? I am not fortunate enough to have free money handed to me every month. I have to work. If I do not I will lose my home. It's funny but the ones screaming the loudest "lock us down" are people who never leave home any way and are drawing government checks. They don't have to worry about money or working. Maybe all the working people should strike for about a month. What will you do then? Cause you can't just sit at home and order stuff. Nobody will be working.

Again, those are NOT communist countries. Read my reply before you freak out. NO WHERE did I say anything about money. I agree with you that with the $600 unemployment money people are getting, they are making more money than when they worked. Also we are not rich by any means, my husband and I both work full time me 40 hours a week my husband sometimes 50+ hours. My hours are cut and his were eliminated but he just went back this week. I never screamed lock down nor do we have money handed to us. Yes, he got unemployment of $600 a week, but that was not what he used to make, and we struggled like most people. Please don’t put words into my mouth. All I said was I don’t understand why their numbers went down and ours didn’t!

so very true.

I personally am not holding my breath about a vaccine any time soon and if there is one it's going to be years away. I hope I'm proven wrong on the timeline I just don't believe it.

Dang. People need to learn to read a comment and not get so offended and think every single thing in the comment is directed at them. Most of the people, wait, ALL of the people who are screaming they want everything locked down either live off the government or somebody is paying their bills for them. If I don't work and can't pay my bills I will lose my home. It is the same with most others who are wanting to work.

So very true. People can jump to wrong conclusions and not really read or understand what the other person said. If we didn’t work we would also lose our home and everything we worked all our married life for. We have to learn to be more tolerant of people and their opinions. It would be a very boring world if we all agreed on everything.
