Open Thread | Some Thoughts On COVID-19

Posted on May 22, 2020 by rikyrah

I am back to posting on COVID-19, because, it is the biggest story in the world.

I will be going back to my physical workplace on June 1st.

I admit that I am terrified.

All my energy will be spent getting to and from work , COVID-19 free. That is what will consume me, Monday through Friday.

Do you really think that I am going to expound any energy for anything else?

Really?

Seriously?

I look at the pictures of these crazy people who won’t wear masks or respect social distancing, and I am horrified.😳😳

You are not just risking your life with your ignorance. You are risking MINE- and, I find that unacceptable.

I don’t know what kind of delusional world that you live in, but the incredible selfishness that is on display is disgusting 😠😠.

Open Thread | Just Checking In With Some Political Commentary

Posted on May 20, 2020 by rikyrah

I don’t really remember the first time that I came upon Marcus Johnson on Twitter. But, he was young, Black, and his droll commentary just cracked me up. Folks were all involved and upset about the Democratic Party Primary.

He did not move. He did not budge. He said it early and stuck with the following:
1. The Democratic Party Primary didn’t begin until South Carolina.
2. Whatever candidate won the South would win the nomination.

He never moved from those beliefs.

So, he is doing a post-mortem on the progressives, and what they did wrong:

The alt left is in meltdown mode because they know if Biden wins the $$$$ game is up. No more major media interviews, no more relevancy. It was never about socialism, it was about power and replacing the current Dem elites with themselves. Now Bernie is gone and its almost over.

Open Thread | Andy Slavitt Trying To Warn Us

Posted on May 18, 2020 by rikyrah

Yet again, Mr. Slavitt is dropping truth. Keep your eyes open.

Mitch McConnell will not pass any more Congressional aid for Americans losing income, nutritional aid, states or testing & contact tracing unless he gets 1 thing: waivers for employer liability if you come back to work & get infection from COVID-19.2/

We are facing a set of needs without precedent since the Great Depression. But McConnell says he won’t move on the House bill. 4/ https://t.co/jzbIJz4nQu

Open Thread | Some Words About COVID-19 From A Healthcare Expert

Posted on May 15, 2020 by rikyrah

Just thought that I would drop this Twitter thread from one of the most knowledgeable Healthcare Bloggers: Andy Slavitt-

COVID Update May 6: Like many countries we picked a strategy to beat COVID-19. We just decided not to stick to it. 1/

— Andy Slavitt @ 🏡 (@ASlavitt) May 6, 2020

#StayHome was a first step to flatten the curve. We reduced the infection rate likely from a number between 2 and 3 to closer to 1.

Given exponential math & limited supplies & resources, this likely saved 10s if not 100s of thousands of lives. 3/

Open Thread | What These State ‘Openings’ Are About

Posted on May 13, 2020 by rikyrah

This Twitter thread is on the money

"Re-opening" isn't about saving ordinary workers and earners. You can't save someone by infecting them with a deadly disease. In a world without contact-tracing, therapeutics, tests, PPE, santizing products, etc, more contact means more risk of illness and death.

— Covered Dish People (@doctorow) May 8, 2020

These people are willing to risk workers' lives and shoppers' lives because they believe they do not have a shared microbial destiny with the rest of us.

They think they won't get sick, and if they do, they think they'll get better.

— Covered Dish People (@doctorow) May 8, 2020

They can afford premiums to gougers for PPE for shopping trips, and if they do get sick, they can afford private rooms, hoarded ventilators, and home care (with PPE for the workers who care for them).

For the investor class, "re-opening" is low risk and high reward.

Open Thread | Heads Up About What This Administration Is Up To

Posted on May 11, 2020 by rikyrah

This comes from the journalist that predicted the path for the United States with regards to COVID-19, so I believe her.

My sources @WhiteHouse say 2 tactics will be used to get America open & #Trump reelected.
1.) Cast doubts on all #COVID19 death numbers & try to get Americans to disbelieve their health depts. & @CDCgov rpts.
and
2.) Use Exec Order powers to "create demand" for…

Birx is allegedly starting to cast aspersions on @CDCgov #COVID19 mortality data:
“'There is nothing from the CDC that I can trust,' Birx said, according to two of the people."
