I'll have to check in and see Part 3 in November. :|

Hopefully there aren't any other parts before then. :| :| :|

Ah yeah, guess they must be taking a page from the Russian playbook. Hopefully no doctors fall from windows.

Idiots here saying it’s being over reported. “If a cancer patient gets corona and dies, the cancer killed them, not the corona!”

We have reports of out-of-state people dying in Florida of COVID-19 and they aren't being reported here or in their home state. If this same person rented a jet-ski, ran it into a large vessel, and died they'd be counted as a Florida death.

It's quite clear Ron DeSantis and the GOP Sentors of Florida will do anything to stay in good favor with Dumpf!

Spoke to someone I used to work with today who’s still in touch with people in Russia and they are saying the situation is very bad. Putin ended the lockdown after the hospital’s were not over run.

Semi-related note, now there’s a huge petrochemical spill in North Russia? North of the Artic Circle?

Brazil removed official Covid numbers from health ministry website. Obvious cover up

Various people on Reddit have confirmed individual provinces (or whatever they're called) still publicly report Covid numbers, so we can still watch it unfold.

Having said that, I must admit I'm a little worried about the US with all the protests going on. Don't think I've seen a single cop with masks either (except gas masks).

I would have to imagine a gas mask being much more efficient at preventing covid-19....

While throwing tear gas canisters, increasing the amount of coughing among protesters.

i don't think these protests are even really about George Floyd. his murder was just the spark. people have been cooped up indoors for months and this is really an anti-lockdown spasm that people have convinced themselves is an anti-racism protest

the willingness to disregard the risk when only two weeks ago the same people were losing their shit over DomCum's Mr Magoo trip to Barnard Castle speaks volumes

I think the protests are about both things. For some, it's more about getting out of the house, for others, it's more about systemic racism and they'd be in the streets no matter what. How many anti-racism protests have there been in the last decade, after all?

Easy to argue that he is a big part of why this happening; anti establishment, the us and them narrative, privilege and the like. I do think there would have been less temptation to deal with this in mass gatherings in the UK if it wasn't for DomCum's northward waft with added special eye test shenanigans plus the easing of restrictions.

2nd spike incoming towards the end of July
3rd spike in November, and that'll be the one that hits really hard

i don't think it's that easy to argue that since these mass protests are happening in countries where people are fortunate enough never to have heard of DomCum
