Thought this looked like a cool site. Odd though they have Florida listed at 19.4% positive test rate. We’re at 12.57% and have never been above 14.92%. Wonder where they’re getting their data from?

I don’t know who’s behind it - maybe it’s that crazy lady from Florida who got fired for wanting to count everybody from other states.

If you watched the CBS evening news tonight, it was all doom and gloom about the virus. They essentially said that we are worse off now than we have been yet. Whatever stats they are using sure seem a helluva lot worse than what you guys are reporting. Who to believe? HA !!!

One of the doctors who appeared in that video and is a board-certified emergency room specialist was fired because her bosses thought her appearance was "embarrassing." Embarrassing to whom, I might ask. She was merely expressing her opinion based on her own personal experience as a doctor. She has wisely hired a nationally known lawyer to represent her. The days ahead should prove very interesting.

Welcome to the fourth reich. You will assimilate.

Sure looks like that. But I for one will not assimilate.

Can we enter the transfer portal and look at moving to some other year please? 2020 sucks.

Now, there's an idea! Find a way for us and I'll be right behind you.

Re: the doctor that has some wacky beliefs

The unfortunate thing about the world we live in today is people will always point back to a time in your life when you did something stupid even when you’re doing great things.
When the amazing person comes along and finally finds a cure for cancer people will immediately dig into that persons past and say “yea but did you see what he did here, this is the person we’re supposed to listen to?”
Crazy time to be alive.

All those criticizing her are racists, because she came from poverty in Africa where those kinds of things she talked about were par for the course there among the witch doctors.

I don’t know all the details yet, and the news could be wrong, but 2 Floridians were just arrested and thrown in jail. They had tested positive, but their roommates called police and told them the 2 weren’t wearing masks *inside the home* and at one point went to the *grocery store*.

This is the world we live in.

Theres a much easier way to regulate the use of a completely optional software program. Don't use it.

I use it only to contact a business I might need to communicate with. No company reads their emails but everyone of them has someone monitoring their social media presence.
The problem is FB is like crack to the typical user. It’s poison and f’s them up and unfortunately they’re allowed to vote.

Some of my liberal friends are telling me that herman Cain caught the china virus at the Trump Tulsa rally. Everything i have read says that is possible but that no one really knows. Is there any basis for my friends' claims (other than the obvious) or os this just another case of politicizing covid? Can anyone enlighten me

Dr. Immanuel has indeed said some absurd things, but the fact remains that she has apparently had stunning success in treating Covid patients in spite of that. And none of the other doctors who spoke have said similarly screwball things in the past, and they too have had success in early-on use of HCL. These videos have been deleted by FB, Google, etc. Whatever happened to letting people decide for themselves whether they are worthwhile. Every time I go to a grocery store or pharmacy, I see racks of magazines like the National Enquirer and others. Do I demand that they be removed? Of course not; I simply ignore them and move on, because I know they are worthless, having seen some of them in the past. Why can't the social media people do the same. If the posts are ridiculous or false, then let the people decide that for themselves. Why do we need "Doctor" Zuckerberg and others like him telling us we cannot be allowed to see certain things? Is that really an example of freedom?

But has she? I mean she’s a pediatrician. Who would she be treating that is at risk?

She's not. That's where she started. She works for a home health services agency in Houston that focuses on the elderly. She claims to have treated several hundred people. (This is not an endorsement of her statements or success )

Um, yes? Its a company, why can't they decide how people use their service? As long as it's not discriminating a protected class, I don't see a problem. I thought this was a conservative mindset, at least it is to me (and as mentioned, I was 100% a republican).

Also can someone explain to me this obsession with hydroxychloroquine? I'd like to understand the underpinning of this vast, multinational conspiracy to keep HCL out of the hands of people who need it? Who is behind the scenes and what is their motivation?

Surely this is tongue and cheek? They're racists for mocking a physician for these absurd statements, and that makes people racist because she's African?

Please tell me you're mocking the left's hairline trigger to call things racist?

 

[potatohead]

The man was a political figure who promoted the idea that COVID was a hoax and was against the use of masks. Its kinda hard to not politicize it when his politics on the subject basically lead to his own death.

Don't take the bait! "Political" posts get reported and removed. How you can separate a pandemic from our Federal response is beyond me, but that is the attempt.

Good afternoon friends. The stuff re: Cain has been recycled. If Mr. Cain is a subject near and dear to your heart by all means continue to do so up in the political topics. As always, your support and continued patronage of GT Swarm is always appreciated. Regards.

It wasn't a political discussion. Sounds like someone reported their friend to help them exit stage left LOL. Oh well, onwards and upwards. Still waiting on that link in a PM Wreck.

LOL. We do indeed get a lot of help!

While ignoring the "help" offered by some.
