NEVER EVER COMPLY WITH FASCISM!!!

The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.

How about you learn to read, son? It isn't COVID that's doing it, its other health problems and people not wanting to work.

Did you ever bother to get a job? How about you chip in some labor down at the hospital if you care so much? Yeah, keep whining. That's all you libs are good for anyway.
Donald Trump was and is the best president this country has ever had. And he will return to glory as our leader again.

Hmmmmm....

"COVID cases are rising, yes, but they’re only about 10% of all patients. The “overwhelming majority” are those with other serious health conditions."

And

"And the system’s experiencing a staffing shortage so severe, they’ve had to close 180 beds. Henry Ford Health System announced earlier this week that it’s had to close more than 100 beds, for similar reasons."

“Thanks to our heroic vaccine effort, we’ve gained the upper hand against this virus,” Biden said. “We can live our lives, our kids can go back to school, our economy is roaring back.”

Joe Biden, July 4th, 2021
This problem you cite must rest squarely on the Biden Administration. After giving what amounted to a "victory speech" on the fourth of July, the virus came roaring back. Since he took office, there have been over 250,000 Covid deaths in the U.S.

I haven't seen any effort from him prodding the creation of therapeutics or new vaccines. His messaging on the virus has been all over the place and he seems to be placing the blame on the citizenry instead of attacking the problem with new solutions.

Think I'll start a Biden Death Count thread....
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Not absolving Beaumont of any shoddy management, but there's still some blame to spread around.

Also from the linked article:
“Many people delayed getting tests and treatment for medical issues because of their concerns about the pandemic,” Fox said in a statement. “Now, more than a year and a half after the pandemic began, those delays in care are resulting in medical emergencies.”

Much of this is due to the fearmongering and the draconian shutdowns. I wonder how long it will take - or if we'll ever know - the total "cost" in lives or overall health from missteps in managing through the pandemic.
